God's Workmanship

Eph. 2:10 "For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." Have you ever looked in the mirror and said, "I am God's workmanship", God made me, and since He made me, I must have value, not only that, He made me for a purpose? He already has "good works" planned for me to participate in. He has covered my sin with the blood of Jesus. He has given to me the righteousness of Christ. He has placed His Holy Spirit within me. As Paul says, "I can do everything through Him who gives me strength." Phil. 4:13. Paul had just said that he had "learned" to be content in any kind of circumstances. The same one that allowed the circumstances, created the good works for us to participate in. Perhaps we need to spend more time “learning" the lesson that Paul did, and spend less time complaining about all the things that happen to us that we have no control over anyway. Stop looking at the "cant’s" and start looking at the possibilities Remember Phil. 4:13
