This has now officially been the worst winter I have ever experienced as a human being. Officially!

I’m from a country that gets a whole lot of rain, so the amounts of snow the winter of 2009/10 has already generated is way beyond anything I have experienced before, and I live in Maryland. I couldn’t imagine what it would be like to live in up-state New York! No thank you!

This past Saturday it was snowing again and as I sat in my living room watching the snow falling outside I started to think how incredible it was that not one of those snow flakes were identical. Again last night I was out in the snow with all these millions of snow flakes falling around me and the thought came to my mind again. Either this is a wonder of science or we have a truly incredible God who is so unique and creative that he has so many patterns and plans that if it snowed for eternity there still would not one snow flake alike.

If God takes that much trouble forming every snow flake how much more care did he take when he formed you? In Psalm 139:14 we are told that we are fearfully and wonderfully made. We were formed, created and made in a wonderful incredible way. Not only that, but God created us with a purpose in mind. He created us for greatness and his plan for us is mind-blowing. The unique thing about God is that when he formed and created you he made you in such a way that no-one else on this planet could fulfill that purpose he designed you for except you.

I don’t know how you are feeling today, but know this one thing. God created you for a purpose. That means he created you to be an individual who was unlike any other person who has ever lived. You are the only person who can fulfill what God planned for your life.

What is the purpose that God created you for?
