June.25.02: Light For The Day - "God Made You - You!"

-- Genesis 1:26, 27 (NIV)
"Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, in Our likeness,
and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air,
over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures
that move along the ground.
27 So God created man in His own image,
in the image of God He created him;
male and female He created them."

------------------------
God made you an original; don't die a coy. In Christ,
you can be the best of what and who you want to BEE!

According to aeronautical science, the bumblebee can't fly.
Its body is too heavy, and its wings are too shallow.
But the bumblebee doesn't know it can't fly. So it flies around
doing what God chose for it to do, pollinating plants.
It does so without considering its limitations.

You, too, have talent, skill, aptitude, and ability that are you -uniquely
yours.
We can be the best of what and who we want to BEE --
and only God knows what our limitations are.

You might appear to be different -- or even strange -- to some people.
But remember, God made you in His image for His glory.
Use your uniqueness to edify people and glorify God.
Capitalize on the abilities God has given you.
Don't expect other people to be like you or to always understand you.
They're busy being uniquely themselves.

"I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful, I know that full well."
