Set Apart

God planned and packed you on purpose for his purpose.  Heaven's custom design.  At a moment before moments existed, the sovereign Star Maker resolved, "I will make __________."  Your name goes in the blank.  Then he continued with [all] your characteristics.  Insightful.  Clever.  Detail oriented.  Restless.  And since you are God's idea, you are a good idea.  What God said about Jeremiah, he said about you; "Before you were born, I set you apart for a special work" (Jeremiah 1:5).  Set apart for a special work.
