MY WORD FOR AUGUST 16 IS MASTERPIECE!

My word for August 16^th is MASTERPIECE

I have a friend on face book that is a fabulous artist.  Everything she touches becomes a masterpiece.  I envy the way her paintings are so whimsical and her finishing touches are placed delicately on the canvas.  Everything is perfect, every stroke and every color.    I have tried to be an artist like she is, but I have a lot to be desired.  God gave her the ability to be a genius at creating masterpieces on the canvas.  

Some pieces of art are the originals and some are reproductions.  No matter whether the original or the copied version both are worth something.  It is good to know that we are originals.  There isn’t anyone that is a replica of us.  No two people have the same fingerprint or the same DNA.   We are all unique masterpieces of God.  We were made in His image.  At times we may not feel that we are worth as much as the original work of art, but we are.  We are all special in God’s eyes.  He is an artist that designed everyone as His special works of art.   He handpicked every feature that we have from our head to our toes.  He has special purposes for all of His original works of art. .  He wants us to do the good things that he has planned for us.  That is what he created us for. 

Many masterpieces are sold for a very large price, but to the Lord we are priceless. 

Psalm 139:14    I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
    your works are wonderful, 
    I know that full well.

Dear God thank you for making us all masterpieces.  We understand that you made each of us unique and for a purpose.  Help us to fulfill the expectations that You have for us.
