Snowflakes

This morning, there was just enough of a coating on my car from the snowflakes for me to notice each individual one. I was amazed at how each one was different. Then I noticed how the snow had piled up all around. The individual snowflakes were EVERYWHERE. It's amazing that God takes time to painstakingly make each one, yet there are billions of them. I started thinking about how many humans had ever walked the Earth and how God knows each one so intimately. There are billions upon billions of people who have ever lived on this Earth over thousands of years, yet God knows each one intimately and creates each one uniquely. I then began to think about people's legacies and most never leave a unique mark, yet a few, those snowflakes on my car, stand out. Their uniqueness may have required for them to stand up to others when it was tough or go against the grain. Yet, most people fade into the masses because it is easier than being unique. Ephesians 2:!0 says, "For we are God's workmanship (or work of art), created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." Yeah, I am called to be unique by my Creator...I just need to figure out how to do that. Oh the things I learn from snowflakes...
