You are a Masterpiece

Ephesians 2:10(NLT)

For we are God’s Masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.

Masterpiece – A work of outstanding artistry, skill, workmanship, a person’s greatest piece of work.

Psalms 139:14(NIV)

I praise you because I AM fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that very well.

Fearfully made – God created us with Awe, inspiring, with care, with purpose, shows God’s unique design for each person, God took his time with us.

Wonderfully made – Set apart, distinguished from others. God made each person special and with distinct purpose.

John Mason quote:

“You were born an original, don’t die a copy”

Reason we know that we’re different:

1. We don’t fit in everywhere

2. We don’t fit in with everyone

3. Some things in life frustrate you but don’t frustrate others

4. Everyone will not like you

5. You don’t just follow every trend or flow

6. You are very misunderstood at times

7. Your passion is unique, similar to some but unique

How to become the best version of yourself:

1. Embrace your uniqueness

2. Never stop growing

3. Never stop learning

4. Don’t force connections or friendships

5. Be careful of your relationships

6. Never apologize for being you

7. Never stop praying or believing

8. Realize your life is a marathon not a sprint

9. Don’t be so hard on yourself

10. Forgive others and try to let go when hurt

11. Realize everyone will not like you

12. Honor the ones who help you, especially your parents.

13. Remember you have something no one else has.

14. Realize you’re not better than but unique

15. Realize with uniqueness comes responsibility.

16. Realize where much is given much is required.

We are all different in some way, if we were all the same, some of us would not be necessary.

Jeremiah 1:5(NIV)

Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you. Before you were born i set you apart.

Just like God formed and knew Jeremiah the Prophet, God knew and knows you and set you apart.

Mark Twain quotes:

“The two most important days in your life are the day you were born and the day you find out why”

“Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel, that you, too, can become great”

“Don’t wait. The time will never be just right”

So be your best, do your best, and remember you are awesome.

keep being awesome.
