25-206 You Are His Masterpiece

If you’ve ever stood in front of a mirror and struggled to like what you saw—or questioned if your life really has value—I want to remind you of something sacred: You are His workmanship. Not an afterthought. Not a fixer-upper. A masterpiece. The fingerprint of Heaven is on your life, and today, we’re learning to see what God sees.

Our springboard for today’s discussion is:“For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works…” — Ephesians 2:10 (ESV)

That word “workmanship” in Greek is poiēma—where we get the word “poem.” It means something crafted, something designed with beauty and intention. You’re not a random collection of gifts, flaws, and quirks. You’re a carefully written story authored by the Creator of the universe.

God doesn’t create junk. He doesn’t mass-produce souls. He hand-forms. He sculpts. And when He made you, He stepped back and said, “It is good.”

Here’s the tragedy: We let the world graffiti God’s artwork. We accept labels and criticisms from others and then question our worth. But the Artist—not the critics—gets to define the masterpiece.

You are God’s design.You are beautiful in His eyes.You were created for good works that only you can do.

That means you don’t need to copy anyone else’s path. You don’t have to chase what looks impressive. You were made with divine fingerprints and a divine purpose.

Even your imperfections are tools in His hands. What you call “broken,” He calls “redeemable.” What you hide, He heals. And what you doubt, He declares worthy.

Question of the Day:Do you see yourself as God’s workmanship—or have you been believing what the world has said about you?

Mini Call to Action:Today, write down one thing about yourself you’ve always disliked—and ask God to show you how He sees it. Let Him redefine it with grace.

Let’s Pray:Father, thank You for making me Your masterpiece. Help me to see myself through Your eyes. Heal the places where I’ve believed less, and teach me to walk in the beauty of who You created me to be. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Let’s Get To Work!Masterpieces don’t compete—they reflect the Master. Start seeing what God already sees in you.
