You
are a Somebody!
Have you ever heard someone say, “Well
I’m nobody in the grand scheme of things”. How sad is this statement and how
very sad and degrading if that person truly believes that.
You are a somebody!
You are God’s creation!
You are not an accident or a mistake.
Don’t ever let anyone tell you this.
YOU — are a child of God!!
Let’s look at Psalm 139 verses 13 to 16 in the Good
News Bible for confirmation of this very truth:
(13) You created every part of me; you put me
together in my mother’s womb.
(14) I praise you because you were to be feared; all
you do is strange and wonderful.
(15) When my bones were being formed, carefully put
together in my mother’s womb, when I was growing there in the secret, You knew
I was there —
(16) You saw me before I was born. The days allotted
to me have all been recorded in your book, before any of them ever began.
God has a purpose and a plan for your life. How do I
know? The Bible tells me so. Let’s examine the word of God for this in Jeremiah
29 verse 11
(11) I alone know the plans I have for you, plans to
bring you prosperity and not disaster, plans to bring about the future you hope
for.
So from these two verses alone, in Psalms and in
Jeremiah, we see that we are a creation of the Lord most high. He knew us
before we were born. He has all our days recorded in His book. He knows the
purpose and plans He has for us. He cares about us and our future. It took Him
nine months to gently mold and shape us putting every bone in place in the
safety of our mother’s womb. This is truly amazing. Of course you are a
somebody! A somebody handcrafted by the Father of the universe, the greatest
artist ever!!
When you finally realize how you began and from
where you came, you will certainly feel like the someone special God made you
to be. (Now read that statement over again slowly and let it sink in)
You have talents He gave you, your personality is
unique to you alone, you are gifted in many ways which He wants you to use
bring glory to Him, and that is just the beginning.
If you sing — sing praises unto Him, if you play an
instrument use it for His glory, if you are gifted speaker use your voice to
call others to the heart of Christ.
Let God show you who you are in Him and who He is in
you.
Let this sink into your mind, soul and body and
thank God every day for who He made you to be.
Know your worth and value. You are priceless and God
loves you more than you will ever know here on earth.
Remind yourself every day that God made you, and no
one else in the world is like you. God never makes two of a kind, even in twins
or any multiple births, there is always a distinction between them, however we
are all made equal, in God’s image.
Genesis chapter 1 verse 27 in the Good News Bible
reads:
(27) So God created human beings, making them to be
like himself.
When we realize how fearfully and wonderfully made
we truly are; we have a whole new understanding of how amazing God is. Who else
could bring us from heaven to earth and then back to heaven for eternity?
So take some time today to thank God:
For the colour of your eyes
For your unique personality
For your health and your life
For your ability to love and to share that love with
others, and for His blessings on your life.
And thank Him today for making you exactly who you
are, precious in His sight.
A somebody God loves so much, He died on the cross
to prove His love for you.
Have a beautiful day in His presence.
