A Reading from the Letter to the Ephesians 2: 10

"God has made us what we are, and in our union with Christ Jesus he has created us for a life of good deeds, which he has already prepared for us to do."

What does this mean for us?  God, our ultimate designer had an extraordinary purpose for creating us. He planned a mission so unique, that no one else can take ownership of it.  Who are we to judge our own selves?  God intended us and only us to serve Him in the way He prepared the world to receive us. He already knows the path we are to follow so that we can grow, thrive, find peace and abundance. God has given us His son Jesus to save us for when we stray from our path.  God has laid the foundation of our life before us and reassures us that He is ever present in a world where only few promises are kept.   He knows where and how we will falter, but we need to remember that through His light, goodness, and mercy, His love will forward us back to the direction of where we need to be in order to live good lives not only for ourselves, but others as well.  Can you imagine a world where we all live up to our potential, are happy and living in abundance, where the seeds of peace can grow and spread, and where joy and compassion meet when someone is in despair?  What you feel when you think about this?  How can you play a role in the quest that each of us has been given to live out?  You can do this, for it His dream for you has been breathed in your life at creation!
