Starting now, and for eternity, the conversation is about God's incomparable grace that he lavished on us in and through Jesus Christ. God has it in mind to DISPLAY this grace (Eph. 2:7).
The conversation has many different entry points and excludes no one as we shall see in the blogs ahead.
Today we start with the concept that we are God's poem by his grace. He has saved us and raised us up and is crafting a unique and beautiful poem through our life. Eph 2:10 uses the word "workmanship". We are his crafting, or Poem.
Be sure today that there is nothing in your story, or Poem, that God is not able to touch with his grace and make it part of the heavenly conversation for time and eternity. Reflect today on the grace you can see in your Poem.
I love this idea, that we are Poems. We are God's artwork and that means we are slowly being crafted. Just like a song, or a painting, the finished product goes through several stages of revision. Like you said, there is nothing in our story that God can't touch with his grace, so even when we feel like there is, we just need to be patient.
