When you hear the word masterpiece, what comes to mind? Do you consider a piece of artwork from a famous artist, a magnificent piece of architecture, an amazing dish you made for your family or something that touches your emotions?
All of these things may be considered a masterpiece, but have you ever thought you are a masterpiece?
I recently listened to a sermon from my pastor that opened up my eyes...showing me I AM GOD'S MASTERPIECE!
Why do we constantly compare ourselves to others by worldly standards? We look in the mirror and are quick to point out our flaws and how to fix them. If we really took the time to focus on how amazing God is; we would have a better understanding of ourselves.
For you created my inmost being: you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. Psalm 139:13-14
We are so focused on our outsides, we can't see how complex we are on the inside. My favorite courses in college were Anatomy & Physiology 1 and 2. I learned about the body and how it operates. Wrap your head around this info...the length of your blood vessels would wrap around the earth 2 times! Your heart pumps about 1,800 gallons of blood through your vessels daily. During your lifetime that is over a million barrels of blood carried throughout your body. If you took all the DNA in each cell and formed it in a single strand, stretching it out; it would be 10 billion miles long!
Now take a minute and just think about that? Honestly, I can't even fathom how deeply intricate I am! We were designed by God...each one of us is custom made!
He created our bodies in a magnificent way and created you for a definite purpose. He knows every detail of our life; way before we were a twinkle in our mothers eye. Only God can define you! Your past, age, race, accomplishments, trials or emotions do not define you. You were made in the image of God and matter to HIM!
So...now when I look in the mirror, I focus on the inner depths of my being; instead of the superficial. When you feel like the enemy is throwing darts your way, just remember you are a Masterpiece Custom Designed by the Ultimate Creator!
YOU ARE ❤️ENOUGH❤️!
Love,
Amy
