Be Alert!

Mr. Bill tried to tell me!  For more than twenty years he tried to describe how snorkeling revealed hidden beauties.  All I knew was the snorkeling equipment made Mr. Bill sound like Darth Vader, and I just couldn't imagine myself equipped to snorkel.  Finally, several years ago, I saw those hidden beauties while snorkeling the clear Caribbean waters.  Words are not enough to describe the wonders below: coral of brilliant colors and an amazing assortment of fish indeed alien to Georgia's muddy banks!

 

The Book of Ephesians describes workmanship like no other: "For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." (2:10).  Have you ever seriously thought about the uniqueness of ... you?  Uniquely created, and for what "good works?"  Do you doubt God orchestrates your day:  the student crying in the hall ... the mother struggling with her infant in the grocery store line ... that rude and indifferent sales person ... a neighbor's grief ... the stranger asking directions ... the anger of a co-worker.  We are His design, created in Christ to do His business, and He's already planned the good works. Will you be His Hands-Feet-Voice to share His Heart?  It’s your purpose – your design, so be alert! Watch out for those good works ... and be about ‘em!
