No One Like You!
"Now you are the body of Christ,
and members individually."
1 Corinthians 12: 27
For about $75,000 you can buy Spot, the mass-produced
robotic dog that can walk, climb stairs, and eventually open
doors. He doesn’t need housetraining, feeding, or a daily
walk. And he can be helpful in difficult situations.
He has cameras in his eyes, is rust-proof, and can operate
in terrible weather. But, he isn’t safe for children, and he is
not unique. Every Spot is essentially like every
other Spot,
and he’s not alive.
God has created billions of beings who are alive. He
put
cameras in our eyes, a beating heart in our chests, and
remarkable physical systems that defy the finest robotic
innovators. And we don’t rust.
Furthermore, we aren’t mass produced. Each of us is uniquely
created by God with our own personalities, gifts, talents, back
grounds, faces, and fingerprints. We all have one purpose—to
glorify God and enjoy Him forever—but we can have individual
ministries.
There is no one like you.
There never has been,
and there never will be.
So use you for Him!
"When you are clear about what makes you a unique
individual, you can then better understand what it is
that you can give to others. You can know your unique
place in the world and the purpose that God has for you."
