📖 “For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”

— Ephesians 2:10 (NIV)

🟡 What does this mean?

This verse reminds us that we are a special work made by God.

He not only created us, but also gave us a purpose: to do good things that show His love.

God already has a plan for your life, and that plan includes helping, loving, and blessing others.

🧠 Let's think for a moment

Have you ever made a drawing or craft that you felt proud of?

That’s how God feels about you: He is the artist, and you are His masterpiece.

You are not here by chance. God made you with love and with a purpose: to live doing good and showing Jesus through your actions.

🙌 What can we do today?

Helping someone without expecting anything in return

Saying kind words that encourage others

Being obedient to God and your parents

Looking for ways to do good every day

💬 Phrase to remember

👉 I am God’s handiwork, created to do good.

🙏 Final prayer

Lord, thank You because You made me with love and with a purpose. Help me to live doing good, to love as You love, and to fulfill the plan You have for me. I want to be a light that shows Your love to everyone. Amen. 🙏
