HIS MASTERPIECE

“He saw that he would have to face his problems squarely that God might give him mastery.” Alcoholics Anonymous, page 156

“For we are God's masterpiece.” Ephesians 2:10

For what it's worth: If I was God's masterpiece, He was a starving artist; too many blemishes and blank spots on the painting for me to be considered worthwhile. Add the alcohol, and I was merely a smeared canvas, worthless. Miraculously, instead of dying a drunken waste, I was given the most precious gift of my life. Thanks to years of sobriety in Alcoholics Anonymous, I found the truth - I am God's masterpiece. And I do not want to be satisfied with simply wiping the alcohol off of the campus. I want to repair all of the flaws that deface the masterpiece so that its true value will show and the Artist will be given His due praise.

God bless you.
