Masterpiece

Do you realize....

You are a precious and beautiful masterpiece.

You are created by God, in His image, unique and individual.

He has painstakenly and precisely ordered each brush stroke on your canvas.

He caringly picks out the vibrant or soft colors He likes you to wear.

Your picture is like no other. You are special.

When people look at the picture He has painted on your canvas,

they see a reflection of the Artist Himself.

He sees you, His masterpiece, as very good.

In fact, you are perfect in Jesus.

He hangs you in a special place right now,

where only you can be displayed,

to all the people He desires to inspire.

Day by day, He is putting the finishing touches on you.

Someday, you will be displayed in perfection in His throne room,

where He can admire all that you are and all that you became,

because you trusted Him enough,

to paint your days with living colors,

in submission to the hands of the Artist.....

The Hand of the Master is gentle, loving and careful.....

Each brush stroke is purposeful and diligent.

I wonder, do you see yourself as a masterpiece? Are you willing to let the Artist

apply some new strokes with living color?

Are you looking for the day when you see yourself

hanging in the throne room?
