"You Don't Have to Be All Things
to All People"
Lie Our Hearts Hear: "I need be all things to all people."
Truth Our Hearts Need: "I only need to be who God made me."
For we are God's masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things He planned for us long ago (Ephesians 2:10).
In a world full of pressure and expectations, it's easy to feel we should be all things to all people. But God says to us, "I created you for a specific purpose. Your are who you need to be to accomplish what I put only you on earth to do."
Your strength shows His glory.
Your gifts serve His people.
Your heart expresses His love.
We're not group projects. We're masterpieces who exist for the pleasure and purposes of the Artist. We're invaluable and irreplaceable.
So let's breathe a sigh of relief today. We don't need to be all things to all people. We only need to be one thing (who we're created to be) for one Person (Jesus).
