Go do it!

Ephesians 2:10
'we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.'

This is quite a well known verse, I love it. There's quite a lot contained in it, so let's break it down a bit:

- we are his workmanship
We are God's handiwork, his invention, handcrafted and developed by him. Now, as God, is, well, God, he knows what he is doing! You are no mistake, you are not a blot on humanity, you have been designed, and intricately woven together. Every curve, every line has been fashioned and lovingly put together by the Almighty! We all have doubts, I. Shelf have had to grow to understand this. The fact is, the Bible is truth it is God's word, so it is true. It doesn't matter how we feel. We can feel worthless and unwanted, but the truth states that you, 'are his workmanship'. There's no mistake in that. God handcrafted you, you are a part of his creation and he is pleased with all he has made. That's the truth.

- created in Christ Jesus for good works,
We are also made in Christ Jesus. Through Christ's death, we gain life. We have been reborn if we decide to accept all Jesus has done and allow that to change our lives.
We have been created to do good things, we have been created to work. Not everyone has a job, but everyone can do good works. It could be helping out a neighbour, buying a homeless person a sandwich or writing a note to cheer someone up. There's no end to the good works we can do. What good works can you do? God has created you, given you talents and opportunities, are you using them for good works?

- which God prepared beforehand
God has a plan! Even when we don't!
God knows what you are created for, he has designed you for a significant purpose, to make a difference in this world. He has prepared your tasks, and prepared you for them. To find out what they are, you'll have to ask him. Spend time listening to the one who made you, then you'll find out what you're made for.
The great thing is God put all this thought and purpose into not only designing you, but designing you for a purpose. The world needs you in it to complete the works you've been made for. God knows what you're meant to do, so you can trust him when he's leading you into sometimes scary paths.

- that we should walk in them
So, God designed us, designed us for purpose, all in advance, now what?

 Now..... DO IT!

There's no point in knowing and understanding this stuff if we're just going to sit there and not do anything about it. You have been designed to do good things, so go and do them!
