God’s Masterpiece

I love the Msg Bible paraphrase of Psalm 139:13-16, “Oh yes, you shaped me first inside, then out; you formed me in my mother’s womb. I thank you, High God—you’re breathtaking! Body and soul, I am marvelously made! I worship in adoration—what a creation! You know me inside and out, you know every bone in my body; You know exactly how I was made, bit by bit, how I was sculpted from nothing into something. Like an open book, you watched me grow from conception to birth; all the stages of my life were spread out before you, The days of my life all prepared before I’d even lived one day.” Contrary to public opinion, our value comes from God, the Creator, and not from our own appearance and it’s certainly not based on what people think. Trust me when I say, “You are fearfully and wonderfully made.” God creates masterpieces not garbage and Ephesians 2:10 backs me up! Paul said, “ For we are God’s masterpiece….” Though we ARE different, we serve the one True God not made with human hands. We worship the Creator of all things and especially US. We strive to obey and live for Him who saved us and called us with His holy calling. We march to a different drum. We tread on the road less traveled. We are God’s masterpiece and we were not created for man’s glory, but to glorify God.
