God's Masterwork... You!

Monday, May 15, 2023

The Mona Lisa, the Sistine Chapel, Beethoven's Fifth and Ninth symphonies are each considered a masterpiece. How do you make a masterpiece unless you are a master? A masterpiece is the work of a master. So what about your life? Did you ever think that your life can become a masterpiece? Eph. 2:10 says "We are His workmanship." The Greek word "poiema", is where we get the word poem from. We are to be God's poem, God's piece--that's a masterpiece. If you want your life to become a masterpiece, you have to let your life be molded by the hand of the Master. You can't make yourself by yourself. Only the Maker can make you. Stop focusing on your works. Start becoming a work of God. Stop getting wrapped up in your good or bad works. Start learning how to become the work of God. By your work, you can only make what is imperfect, but ALL His works are perfect. When you become His work, then your life becomes a work of the Master, and thus you become a masterpiece.
