For we are all His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them (Ephesians 2:10).
I love listening to my kiddo’s conversations on the car ride home from school. They tell stories about their friends, describe how recess went or teach one another something interesting. Last week, the subject of bees came up!
Bee’s pollinate plants by transporting seeds and pollen. This is the only method many plant species use to blossom and grow. We’d be in a world of hurt if we didn’t have bees. Not only would we lose those specific plants that rely on bees to transport pollen, the animal species that feed upon them would be extinct as well. Bees were perfectly designed to fulfill a very specific purpose.
We too are the perfect workmanship of God. He intentionally designs each and every one of us with a specific purpose. He creates within us spiritual gifts which allow us to accomplish tasks God has laid out before as we spread the Gospel.
We must be intentional in our prayers as we ask for the Holy Spirit’s guidance. He will help us discover our gifts and see opportunities where we can bring others to accept Christ as their personal Lord and Savior.
Dear God, You have designed a perfect world. As we admire it today, help us discover the purpose You have designed us to fulfill. Amen
