SHARE YOUR GREATNESS WITH THE WORLD.

"For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do" (Ephesians 2:10 NIV). This is one of my most loved verses in the Bible.

Why?

This single verse tells us three powerful things…

First, we are God's handiwork. We are His Masterpiece. We are His work of art. The Book of Genesis agrees. It says when God created the heavens and the earth, the mountains and seas, including birds and fish and cats and dogs and bees and butterflies and cockroaches, He used only His word. He spoke them into existence. But when He created man and woman, God used His own hands to shape them. We are handmade.

Second, we are created to do good. This is our original design. Have you noticed? When you lie or lose your temper or hurt someone intentionally, something in you rebels. You lose your inner peace. You feel discombobulated. Because that's not you. You're designed to love, not hate. You're designed to heal, not hurt.

Third, our good works are God-prepared. He has already preplanned the specific good works that we're supposed to do in our life. I find that amazing. I believe these good works are tied to our main gift. Our special calling. Our unique greatness.

What do you think you were created to do? You are an Arrow in God's hand, work hard for it. Because you will create so much impact because of it and your dreams will come true.

You're A Great Person: Give your greatness to the world.
