As an artist sees an image and makes it come to life through some artistic media……creating a masterpiece,
As a musician writes lyrics and hears a melody to create beautiful music…..creating a masterpiece,
As a writer uses words to express ideas through a book or simple writing….creating a masterpiece,
So, God envisioned and then created all of His creations as His Masterpieces.
The Masterpieces all have a purpose and work together to give Him praise and honor.
Think about all the wonderful Masterpieces God made…..
….the sun and the moon
….the earth and the heavens
….the sky and the ocean waters
….the plants and the trees
….the birds and the animals
….the mountains and the valleys.
And from those Masterpieces, we get to behold …..
….Beautiful sunrises and sunsets
….Full moons to light our way
….The bright stars illuminate the dark sky
….The wonder of the crashing waves on the beach
….The beautiful flowers in the meadow and the colorful leaves fall from the trees
….The birds soaring through the air and making music for our ears
….The majestic view of the mountains and the valleys.

Isn’t God the ultimate artist creating such beauty for us where we can experience God’s love and power all around us?
If all those beautiful sights of creation weren’t enough, God then created His ultimate Masterpiece…..YOU and ME! “So God created man in his own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female he created them.” –Genesis 1:27
Have you ever stopped to think how awesome it is that YOU are God’s greatest Masterpiece? Let the power of that sink in…
YOU are created in His image..You are truly a piece of our Master….that makes YOU a Masterpiece indeed!

Your hands shaped me and made me. Will you now turn and destroy me? Remember that you molded me like clay. –Job 10:9
This is a beautiful reminder especially to those who are blinded by sorrow that they forget who they really, what they’re made of and Who created them.
I admit that sometimes it’s hard to believe I am a masterpiece when I am in the midst of a mess. But that doesn’t change the truth about me. 🙂
Thank you for another dose of inspiration today. #bloggercare
Yes, Lux, it is hard to always remember that WE are God’s masterpiece…and often we don’t feel that. But, you are so right, the truth of that doesn’t change! Thanks for reading and your encouraging! God bless.
