God's Copyright
"All things were made by him; and without him was
not any thing made that was made." (John 1: 3 KJV)
We are advised that we should copyright everything we write, create or
compose so someone else can't take the credit for it. We must never forget
that everything in the world is copyrighted to God. Nobody can steal our
inventions, songs, books or anything else because they all originated from
God. He is the one who gave us the ideas.
It is God who gave us the talent to do these things and it is God who helps
us do them. If anyone is stealing copyrights, it is us. We are stealing from
God when we claim that we did these things. Everything that we create, write
or compose belongs to God, not us. May God forgive us for trying to take the
credit for what He has done!
We are just His tools that He uses to spread the unconditional love of
Jesus. Christians are sometimes a very arrogant people. We would do well to
remember that we are the clay and He is the potter. We read in the Bible
"But now, O Lord, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter;
and we all are the work of thy hand" (Isaiah 64: 8).
If you have forgotten that you are the clay and He is the potter, ask Him to
forgive you. Allow Him to mold you into the person He wants you to be. He
can do a much better job of molding us than we can. Thank You, Heavenly
Father, for being our potter. Help us to get out of the way so You can work
in our lives. Amen.
