Celebrating Who We Are

A golf bag has several clubs in it. They are of different composition and shape. And each club has a different usage depending on the situation. But a good golfer knows the clubs. And the golfer appreciates each for its uniqueness and purpose.
People are different too! And we are to be appreciated for our uniqueness. God made us that way. Here is how the Psalmist said it:
14 Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex!
Your workmanship is marvelous–and how well I know it.
15 You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion,
as I was woven together in the dark of the womb.
16 You saw me before I was born.
Every day of my life was recorded in your book.
Every moment was laid out
before a single day had passed.
17 How precious are your thoughts about me, O God!
They are innumerable!
18 I can’t even count them;
they outnumber the grains of sand!
And when I wake up in the morning,
you are still with me! Psalm 139:14-18 NLT
Each of us has a purpose. Your purpose may be quite different than another person. Yet, we know that God has created each of us with a purpose.
Each of us is important to the plan of God. He made us for Himself and for His design. He has declared us important.
Each of us is unique. We are not the same.
We appreciate how God has made us different and how God has given us different abilities. We are not the same and we rejoice in it! Let’s celebrate how God has made each of us.
