We can often wonder who we are, what we are doing and often this can be mixed up with low self-esteem. So, in May we are starting a new series looking at how God sees us. The new series is called The Handiwork of God and is a quote from Paul’s letter to the Ephesians “we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do” Ephesians 2:10. This series will look at the impact of that as we consider why He made us and what He hopes for us. We are so much more than we all too often think of ourselves and we need to allow God’s purposes for us to inform and shape us. Our first sermon in this series looks at how Grace forms us to receive all God has for us,
