In Eph 2:10 it says that we are prepared for good works, as God’s workmanship. When it comes to flourishing in life, it is good to remember who our creator is. We are created in the image and likeness of our magnificent God, and if anyone knows how to create beauty from nothing, it is our God! Just take a peek at creation around you, and you can see beauty in all forms. This same amazing God created you. You are His workmanship. He hand crafted you! He put everything you would need to fulfill his plan for your life within you. He has prepared you to do great things on this earth. In fact, this verse in Eph 6:10 says that we are His workmanship, prepared and ready to do great things. God saw you, and created you to do good things! I know most of us would like to have a complete list of what God has planned for us, but as faith people, not knowing everything is part of our faith walk. We find out step by step. This journey we are on is an adventure. His plan for us is unfolding as we take each step in the direction He leads. So what good works do you thing God has prepared for you? We would all love to think God would use us to cure cancer, or bring world peace, but how about looking in your own home. What good can you do right there? Can you be a peace maker? Can you be an encourager? Can you be the one who brings sunshine in the room when you enter? Can you be the positive one in a world of negativity? Why not start where you are, begin doing good right where you are, and then be prepared, God has a great plan for you!
