Day 20: His Masterpiece


THANK YOU GOD

are the words that flow from my heart,

as what else do you say to the

ONE

who knitted you together in your mother’s womb on purpose.

I guess that

HE

wanted me here & wanted you here or

HE

would have never learned how to knit!

I did nothing to be here and either did you.

WE DIDN'T WISH OUR EXISTENCE INTO BEING.

Think about it.

Pretty overwhelming when you really think about it.

Born on purpose because the

ONE

who created the sun, moon, oceans and stars

created you & I.

WE DIDN'T WISH OUR EXISTENCE INTO BEING.

Our BIRTH~DAY

chosen by the ONE who has chosen us to be born.

Created on purpose.

To really receive this & live it is hard for me,

as I am the queen of picking myself apart.

And if you want to know what is wrong with me I can tell you,

and I am sure if you know me well enough you know my flaws and blemishes.

And I bet you also are pretty good doing the same to yourself.

But then

GOD

pulls you aside and says,

"Stop it. Stop saying bad things about MY creation."

because

"we are GOD'S MASTERPIECE " Ephesians 2:10

That reflection you see in the mirror~

HIS Masterpiece!

Hmm....even though it is hard for these eyes to see,

but that is

Who GOD says we are~

HIS CREATION

created

ON PURPOSE.

Maybe my

RESOLUTION

is to

RECEIVE & BELIEVE

that I am

HIS MASTERPIECE

&

TO LIVE

as one

even in those moments when

I don't feel like one & you don't feel like one

just because

WE DIDN'T WISH OUR EXISTENCE INTO BEING.

It is quite humbling when we remove self from this

and stop

BELIEVING & RECEIVING & LIVING

out all those condemning words we tell our "self"

and instead

RECEIVE & BELIEVE & LIVE OUT

Who HE says we are

because

HE is the ONE

who knitted us together in our mother's womb

and no one knits by accident.

So

THANK YOU GOD

for creating me 21184 days ago

(I will spare you the time to get out your calculators~58 years!)

because YOU wanted to

and oh how humbling it is~

because

WE DIDN'T WISH OUR EXISTENCE INTO BEING.

So

HAPPY BIRTH~ DAY

to all of you

and

LIVE as HIS MASTERPIECE

whether you feel it or no because we are

SO MUCH MORE THAN A RESOLUTION~

we are

HIS CREATION!
