Created to Do Good Works

Scripture: Ephesians 2: [10] For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

Observation: At times I look in the mirror and can’t see God’s workmanship. I use to feel so useless, hated my appearance and couldn’t stand being me. After receiving Jesus as Lord and Savior things changed. I was able to see God’s workmanship in my life as He changed my heart. He gave me tasks to do, people He wanted me to meet and things He wanted me to do. Each task seems as if it was prepared in advance for me to do, using the gifts and talents God gave me, I can see I was created to do these good works, because of Him.

Application: I need to search for the opportunities to do the works God has created me to do. I need to be ready to serve the way my Lord wants me to serve. I know I have missed so many opportunities already because of my laziness and I can’t afford to miss anymore. I need to be doing what I was created to do and not become useless to my maker.

Prayer: Dear Lord thank you for making me, me. Guide me each day to what it is you desire of me and that I will do the works you have planned for me to do. At the end of each day may I see what it was you desired and that I did it.
