In 2003 my church put together a page-a-day devotional booklet for the month of September. Each entry was written by a member/regular attender of the church. Here’s the one I wrote.
For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. — Eph 2:10 (NIV)
Our workmanship takes many forms, from awe-inspiring buildings to individually made Pinewood Derby cars, carefully constructed for the day of the big race.
In today’s verse we read about God’s workmanship, which is us, the church! Unlike human workmanship, God’s is always perfect. I like the New Living Translation, which calls us “God’s masterpiece”. If you read from the beginning of Ephesians you’ll see all the wonderful things God has done in us to create His masterpiece.
