I was in contact with the art gallery yesterday to discover the status of some art our family had ordered back in January. Our order was confirmed. While we had ordered a limited edition, the artist creates each piece individually. While the design may look like some others, it is completely unique and is only brought into existence once it was been ordered.
I began to think about the concept of this art’s uniqueness and that took me on a thought journey about the marvel of how each person, even if they are a twin, is still a unique individual. Each person has their own personal DNA frequency.
The Psalmist wrote in Psalm 139:13-14, “For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. {14} I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well”.
We read the words of God to the prophet Jeremiah in Jeremiah 1:5, “‘Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.’”
When you purchase an item that needs assembling before it is functional you assume that the creator of the concept planned for every aspect of the product to work as it is supposed to. There is also the assumption all the parts that were designed to be included, were included by the manufacturer. God as designer knows exactly what we need before we were born in order for us to fulfill our destiny. All the pieces have been included and there are no unexpected surprises from His place of reference.
There may be unexpected surprises to us on our journey. Some of these we may not understand or even view as positive initially, but that does not mean God cannot turn them into powerful pluses on our behalf if we will allow Him to.
That is why we are counselled in Proverbs 3:5-6, “Trust God from the bottom of your heart; don’t try to figure out everything on your own. {6 }Listen for God’s voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; He’s the one who will keep you on track” (The Message Bible).
There is great power in acknowledging your uniqueness and its source, activating your faith and trust in the plan for your life and then successfully achieving the outcomes designed especially for you. Celebrate your life each day.
