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. (Ephesians 2:10 NLT)
Many things can make us happy for a moment. Then life creeps in and we become burdened by our worries and circumstances. God is and wants so much more for us. We see glimpses of His greatness in our creativity. God’s power is evident in the complexity and beauty of His creation. The faith that He put in us waits to birth the image of Jesus in our lives as we journey through this world. The problem, as I travel on my path, is I am limited by my selfishness. I love “me” which changes my perception of the journey. I get in the way and keep the God Most High from living in and through me and make it hard for others to see the One who has done so much for me. This essentially robs others of His blessing. I encourage you brothers and sisters to take up your cross daily (Matthew 16:24) so the hope of Christ may spring to life in your heart – bringing more than momentary joy. I believe this is what it really means to live in Him...go in grace and for His glory!
