From the color of your eyes and hair to the curve of your cheekbone; from your love of music, reading, or art to your enjoyment of sports; from the skill of your hands to the passions of your heart; every intrinsic special characteristic that makes you — YOU, was intentionally and lovingly designed by your Creator. You are His masterpiece; designed for significance and intended for a spectacular and enduring purpose.

Yet, too many of us fall short of that glory; never comprehending the meaning behind the triumphs and challanges of life. Our days are consumed with competing responsibilities; each demanding increasing amounts of time and energy. We lose ourselves and sacrifice our relationships to a frenzied cycle of activity and the endless quest for personal success.  Meanwhile, we miss the very best life has to offer...our intended one-on-one connection with our Lord and Savior.

God speaks to each of us; reaching through our clouds of self-sufficiency and promising to replace the aching void in our lives with unspeakable joy and lasting peace.  Have you experienced the transforming power of His embrace? Do you know that you are treasured by God? Regardless of how far from Him you may have strayed, the Lord cherishes you. He is standing near with loving attention focused upon you; asking you to turn and respond to His call; to fully realize the amazing purpose for which you were created.

Today, I encourage you to make that choice.  Deliberately and consistently seek Him.  Intentionally step close to Him until your heart is engaged with His every moment of every day.  He will take you places you have never been and reveal to you wonders you could never imagine!

Wishing you a life of glorious purpose!

May God Bless You,

Debbie
