Title: 'GOD MADE YOU'

Title: 'IN GOD'S IMAGE' /Acryls  - Prayer Art by Rev.Bola

"I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth." (Psalm 139:14-15)

*God made you. Before you were born – even long before your parents were even born – God had plans for you. The Bible says that in God's book He had a record that told all that would happen to you. No matter what you look like or what talents or disabilities you might have been born with, God planned it all. He made you just the way you are for His own glory.
Sometimes you might be tempted to complain about how God made you. You may wish you looked like someone else, or maybe you wish you had a natural talent like one of your classmates. The Bible says that you were fearfully and wonderfully made and that God's thoughts toward you are precious.
Although you should never think boastfully about yourself, you should recognize that God made you special and unique, and He has a special plan for your life that includes what you look like and what natural talents you have. Thank God today for making you just the way you are, and look for ways that you can bring glory to Him with your appearance and your talents.
God made me, and His thoughts toward me are precious.

Reflection:
» Am I tempted to complain about the way I look or the disabilities I have? Am I tempted to criticise and complain about the way that someone else looks?
» Do I thank God for everyone He's made? I hope so.


Peace and Light Rev.Bola
