His poetry

“We have become his poetry, a re-created people that will fulfill the destiny he has given each of us, for we are joined to Jesus, the Anointed One. Even before we were born, God planned in advance our destiny and the good works we would do to fulfill it!”

‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭2‬:‭10‬ ‭TPT‬‬

When I sit at a beautiful piano I love to play it, when I have an inspiration to paint I enjoy picking up my brushes and painting. I write poetry when moved deeply.

This verse tells us we are God’s poetry, for me this means He is moved deeply by us. How can we inspire Him so much? God is love, and loving is what He does best, and when He sees us in His Son He is filled with love.

 We need to hold a baby, especially one that is ours to understand. Love wells up and overflows. Delight in small fingers and toes, two little eyes that peer back, the soft skin, the small mouth. These are beautiful to us.

To be loved so much as to inspire poetry is amazing, but we are. To have a song written about us is more than amazing. A woman with my name had a song written about her:

‘I’m in heaven when I see you smile, smile for me my Diane’. The interesting thing about these words is that my smile is one of my best features, how did the writer know? Apparently his Diane had a beautiful smile. Inadvertently the song also blessed me.

The poetry God writes about us is unique to us alone. The God of all the universe is inspired to write about us, the inhabitants of a tiny speck in space. Thank You Lord! Amen!
