How Unique You Are
By Capazin Thornton
Unique Individual
You are a unique individual. There is and never has been anybody exactly like you. While you may have some traits like your forbearers, you are different. You have your own set of fingerprints. You have your own distinct DNA (genetic blueprint, code or map). Most importantly, God fashioned your inner self like no other.
“The Lord looks down from heaven and sees every person. From his throne he watches all who live on earth. He made [fashions all] their hearts and understands everything they do.” ~ Ps 33:13-15 (EXB)
On top of all that, God endowed you with unique gifts and talents. And, even before you were in your mother’s womb, God had a plan and purpose for your life.
“How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How great is the sum of them!” ~ Ps 139:17
Full of treasures
You have a reservoir of treasures, riches, and wealth inside you. It is up to you to discover, dig them out, and use them for God’s glory.
“But we have this treasure in earthen vessels that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us.” ~ 2 Cor 4:7
Declare your uniqueness
Say: “I am fearfully and wonderfully made. I am unique in God’s eyes. I carry the wonderful presence of God within me. I am the temple of the Holy Spirit. I carry God’s gifts, His grace, His power, His fruit, His character, His wisdom. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. I am more than a conqueror in Him. Thanks be to God who always gives me the victory in by and through Jesus Christ, my Lord.” (Ps 139:14, 1 Cor 6:19; 1 Cor 1:30; Rom 8:37; 1 Cor 15:57)
No matter what you may go through, never doubt God’s love for you. Never doubt that He has a purpose for your life. You are His unique creation, fearfully and wonderfully made. His thoughts towards you are precious (weighty), way more than can be numbered or measured.
