His Workmanship, His Symphony!!
We are Together His Symphony!
Our place in His Grace and Plan and Purpose is….. SPECTACULAR! By His Hand, From His Heart, To the World: "By THIS shall all men know you are MY DISCIPLES! By the love they see you have for one another, yielded to my Spirit. You are My Masterpiece, My Opus, My Sonnet, My Symphony!!"

You are the Light of the world. A City on a hill cannot be hidden. Let your Light so Shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in Heaven. For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is a gift of God... For we are His Workmanship created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Ephesians 2:10 talks about us being a symphony. "We are saved by grace through faith, and that not of yourselves." "It was His will beforehand to have a people that would be His Poem, His Symphony, His Workmanship." And that's what we are! So God wrote this Symphony and everyone plays their own part in it. It might be staccato, it might be melodic, it could be forte, it could be pianissimo, it could be just counting it off until it's your turn. It's not about us. It's about being in the orchestra and it's about following the conductor - to mesh and harmonize into what He has called us to be and do. It's better just to get rid of all the pride and the arrogance and just play our part and trust that God will work it out. A Symphony! That's the Jesus kind of Life - the same Life that He led, the same Spirit that was the Symphony within Him… When you see that, when you are joined and knit together, you can feel the symphony throbbing through your life! and through your heart! and through the people of God! as you do the so-called mundane things!
