“For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”

Wherever you find yourself in this journey, God has shaped you to serve Him. He knows when you feel unworthy and unqualified…

He knows when you give your all and are rejected…

He understands how working with people can become messy and complicated.

He also knows the many people He intends for you to influence…to help and to be an instrument of healing.

He knows the people that He has planned for you to lead to Him.

He knows the people who will never be the same because you reached out to them.

You are God’ handiwork – even His masterpiece. He has created you in Christ Jesus to do good works which He has been planning for a long time. I pray that you will not give up…That you will not lose heart and that you will embrace this amazing calling that He has for you.

“Dear Lord, please help our friends in ministry to see how You have shaped them to serve You. You have given them spiritual gifts…and I love how each of us are not the same. You have given each of us a heart for certain groups of people. You are so amazing to give each of us abilities. Any ability we have is from you and we pray that we will use it to the fullest for you. Thank you that You use our personalities…and our experiences. You are so good and You invite us to join You to reach the world. We thank you… we love you and we pray that You will encourage each of our friends.”
