Masterpiece!
For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago. Ephesians 2:10
One morning last week as I finished up my breakfast bar, my eyes were drawn to the wrapper that now lay empty and ready to be tossed away. The wrapper had a rip down the side, a dab of peanut butter inside, and a few crumbs left. Not really anything left to offer anyone. As I thought about how the wrapper once held a delicious bar inside, my mind took me to how I feel a lot of times about myself. Often times I feel like that wrapper! I feel empty and worthless – that anything good in me is gone!
A lot of people may be like me! They may feel like an empty wrapper! They may feel all the good inside is gone!
As I was having these very thoughts, God reminded me that I am HIS masterpiece! As I let the word masterpiece sink in for just a few minutes, I recalled Ephesians 2:10 where I am reassured of God’s word and plan, and unlike the wrapper He has good things planned for us! I can rest easy knowing that God has created us for a greater purpose! And yes we are his masterpiece! Just know that on the days when we fill empty or worthless that we still have Jesus and that is enough!
