Hey Carpool Crew, it’s Pastor Justin — and today we’re talking about something we sometimes forget to thank God for: ourselves. That might sound a little funny, but think about it — God made you! He gave you your laugh, your voice, your mind, your talents, and the unique way you see the world.

In Ephesians 2:10, it says, “For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared ahead of time for us to do.” The word workmanship means handcrafted artwork. You are a custom creation, designed with love and purpose by God Himself.

If Jesus were sitting beside you right now, He’d probably say, “You don’t have to wish you were someone else. I made you exactly how I want you — my handcrafted masterpiece.” Even when you mess up, God looks at you and says, “That’s my creation, and I love you.”

In this episode, we’ll talk about how being thankful for who we are isn’t pride — it’s gratitude. When you recognize that God made you on purpose, you start seeing His goodness reflected in your own life.

Before you go, talk about this together: What’s one thing you’re thankful for about how God made you?

And remember, no matter where you are or how you’re listening, God loves you.
