Read Ephesians 2:10
"For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared ahead of time for us to do."
Devotional
The word workmanship means something carefully made. It can also mean a work of art. Think about a painting. An artist does not randomly throw paint on a canvas. They create with purpose and attention. God created you the same way. You are not an accident. God made your personality, your talents, your interests, and your story for a reason.
The world may tell you that your value comes from your grades, your appearance, your sports ability, or what others think about you. But God says your value comes from Him. You are His masterpiece.

- What are some things about myself that I sometimes wish were different?
- What is one gift, talent, or quality God has given me that I can use for Him?
Prayer
God, thank you for creating me on purpose. Help me see myself the way you see me. Remind me that my worth comes from you, not from what others think about me. Amen.
