A Work of Art
But now, O LORD, You are our Father,
We are the clay, and You our potter;
And all of us are the work of Your hand.
In the eyes of the Lord you and I are a work of art - a work of the Potter’s hand. He uniquely created you and me complete with our strengths and our weaknesses, our successes and our failures, our virtues and our faults, our integrity and our shortcomings.
Psalms 139:13, 14
For You formed my inward parts;
You wove me in my mother’s womb.
I will give thanks to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
Wonderful are Your works,
And my soul knows it very well.
In the eyes of the Lord you and I are a work of art - fearfully and wonderfully made.
Psalms 139:15
My frame was not hidden from You,
When I was made in secret,
And skillfully wrought in the depths of the earth;
In the eyes of the Lord you and I are a work of art - skillfully wrought in the depths of the earth.
You and I owe the Lord not only for what we have but we also owe Him for who we are - that unique human being He purposely created us to be.
And one of the greatest gifts you and I can give back to the Lord is to simply be that work of art complete with our strengths and our weaknesses, our successes and our failures, our virtues and our faults, our integrity and our shortcomings.
So…
Are you a work of art?
Do you owe the Lord for who you are?
