TODAY’S VERSE
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 (NLT)
TODAY’S MESSAGE
Some people search for a lifetime for a purpose. Why am I here? Where can I find meaning? We look for this bigger-than-life significance, and we can’t find it. We search for something that will fill this hollow feeling inside. There is a craving in our soul that we can’t satisfy, a thirst that we cannot quench. It’s like the song says, “We are looking for love (purpose) in all the wrong places.” All the while, the Bible gives a very fundamental answer to the secret of life satisfaction. Paul sums up our purpose in a straightforward verse. You and I will never be happy, never feel fulfilled until we figure out what Paul is saying. He says that you and I are the workmanship of God, His masterpiece! A specific, personally made creation by almighty God Himself. More than that, we were created for this one simple thing: to do good works! That’s it. Our meaning, purpose, and life satisfaction come from living for God, loving in His name, and doing good because He created us specifically to do good. What joy, purpose, and meaning to know that we are hand-picked agents of God’s good in this world. Do you believe this? Are you living this? If not, you can start today!
TODAY’S PRAYER
Dear God, help me to fully understand what it means to be Your workmanship, created for good works. Help me comprehend that You really know me, love me deeply, and have specifically called me to be Your representative. Thank You for such a glorious calling. Help me today to do Your good works, which You prepared me to do before I was born. You are my creator; I am Your servant. In Jesus’ name.
AMEN
