Week/Day 2 ~ Ephesians, Chapter 2~

We are Gods workmanship.... (Verse 10)
When I think of my workmanship in my jewelry, I want every piece to be perfect. This is something I take pride in. I want every piece of jewelry to turn out like I envisioned. The stones to be shaped right, colors to match, and length sized perfectly, etc. Once it is finished, I set it on display to add the final touches. If it isn't perfect, I usually toss it away and start again until I get it exactly how I want it to look.
But as I read verse 10 of Ephesians I realize how blessed I am. I am Christ's workmanship, yet I am not perfect. He does not toss me away and start over. Even with my imperfections, He embraces me. He even puts me on his display next to Jesus. I truly do not know how blessed I am. Now, every time I look at my imperfect piece of jewelry I will think differently. I will thank God for not tossing me aside for my imperfections.
