Ephesians 2:10

Someone once said it takes a village to raise a child: mother, father, grandmother, grandfather, big sister, big brother, babysitter, teacher, coach. I believe the same can be said for a child of God. Ephesians 2:10 says, “For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” We are God’s workmanship. He is the Craftsman who shapes His craft and he does so in part by using others: mothers, fathers, mentors, disciplers, role models, friends.

Who does God use to shape your life? What are the works that God has prepared in advance for you to do?

I am so glad your mom sent me your blog! This is great. I miss you so much. I often think of our childhood's together... playing at the lake with Grandma and Grandpa, riding horses... playing. I miss you. Now here we are - families of our own and what a shame our children don't share the bond we had. I love you.

Your sister in Christ.
