Copies

Recently I started making copies of my art pieces for other people. I could not bare to part with the originals, so using those as a template I made duplicates. I’m actually a copy-cat to begin with! I see a painting I love and then I try to paint it. This is how I’m learning.

As hard as I try, nothing is ever exact. For one thing, I don’t know the materials or mediums that were used by the artist. Also, without any formal training, I probably won’t do things in a correct manner, but I have fun anyway. 

It’s become an example to me of how God, the Ultimate Creator never makes copies of anything! His abilities are so amazing, He actually thinks up creations that have never been thought of before. Always unique, I love seeing His variations in animals, flowers, trees, sky-art, insects and people! Even His gifts to us through the Spirit amaze me. 

I love God’s artistry! I love being the only me and my family being the only them. He is the Master inventor. Each of us created to fulfill a one-of-a-kind role, in the Body, for His Glory. I don’t understand how He’s doing it or how it all works – but He’s growing us together into a temple for Himself. What a purpose, what a plan.

“God is building a home. He’s using us all—irrespective of how we got here—in what He is building. He used the apostles and prophets for the foundation. Now He’s using you,  fitting you in brick by brick, stone by stone, with Christ Jesus as the cornerstone that holds all the parts together. We see it taking shape day after day—a Holy Temple built by God, all of us built into it, a Temple in which God is quite at home.” ‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭2:19-22‬ ‭MSG‬‬
