God created us all uniquely. We will discuss this truth in the light of the Bible. God created each of us beautifully out of his love. We did not come to this world by accident, but we are here by God’s special plan. God knows every detail of us, and He knows the desires of our hearts.
When we feel that we are special to God, we do not compare our lives with others. We understand that God is our Shepherd and He created us differently from all of us. We are on this earth to glorify and praise God. Many times, we become busy glorifying ourselves instead of glorifying God.
The key to our lives is to find our purpose in Christ. When we come to Jesus, we understand who we are and where we will go after death. These help us to turn away from the worldly lifestyle and accept God’s plans for our lives.
When we feel that God created us uniquely, we also understand that He has given us special talents and gifts. These are not just for our own benefit but to glorify God by serving others. God wants us to use our talents properly with humility and gratitude and through this we are able to do God’s work.
Let us never make the mistake of comparing our lives with the lives of others. Since God created us uniquely, let us enjoy it.
