Eph 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.
The Creator
God created all things. There is one that He created in His image. He created mankind like Himself. Creative, emotional, communicative. This was all ruined by a poor decision, which is not what we are going to focus on today.
God had in mind a relationship with people, for whom He would provide, and from whom He would receive thankfulness and worship.
Take Two
Mankind ruined what God had intended, which by the way was not a surprise to God. But, He had a plan, to make that ruined relationship a masterpiece again.
In Christ Jesus He has made us new again. Restored that intended relationship. He has made His masterpiece.
Now What
Did He make us new again to simply rescue a lost people? No, He made us new again so that we can do the good things He has planned for us.
We have to live the life He intends for us to live, daily. We can’t warm a church pew, and walk away from Him for the rest of the week. He made us new to do!
