Yesterday afternoon, during my time of rest, I felt the Lord gently calling me to take a walk with Him in the spirit. I found myself being led inside a beautiful gallery and inside I saw many pieces of artwork that was hanging from wall to wall. It was of various sizes, colors, textures, designs. I noticed that as we passed by every piece, the Lord would gently touched each one with His hand and there will be a smile in His face as He did that.

Then, I heard Him speak these words to me. "Each piece you saw is My Masterpiece."

SOME WERE PLEASANT, SOME FEARFUL AND AWESOME

Then He brought me to His workshop. Inside I found different types of tools and materials that He used for the creation of His masterpiece. Some of the tools and materials look very pleasant and familiar to the eyes while the other tools look fearful and awesome. However, when He began using each tools in His hand and worked with them. They all worked so beautifully together and I realized that all are useful and essential for the creation of His Masterpiece.

IT LOOKED PERFECT TO ME

Then He showed me one work that was still in process. When I looked at that piece, it already looked perfect to My eyes. But then I saw the Lord shake His head and began doing some retouching to that piece, and when He has finished retouching it, the piece was glowing with the same glory that the Master has.

THE LORD EXPLAINED

I then felt the Lord began explaining to me the meaning of that vision. He impressed to me that each one of us is like a Masterpiece hanging in His gallery. Special, unique like no other piece and that He is the one who crafted each piece.

The different types of tools and materials that I saw, some pleasant and others fearsome and awesome represents all the experiences that God has allowed to touched our lives. Some are pleasant while others have been painful but when we combined them together, we will realized that all these have become important ingredient to what we have become in Him.

UNTIL WE GLOW

Many times when others look at us, they see only the things that are outward and often would think that we are already good enough, and sometimes we ourselves would think that way too. But to the eyes of the Master Artist, He sees beyond the outward appearances and He will not stopped working in our lives retouching every part of us until we will glow with His own reflection and His glory will be seen in us.

WHAT'S THE ARTIST WORKING ON THIS TIME

The Lord impressed to me that for this season in the lives of many of His Masterpieces, He is doing a very particular work. He asked me what I've noted in my own life and those that are around me like my family and my friends. And as I was pondering about this, I realized that all of us seem to undergoing the same type of "retouching" from the hand of our Master Artist.

FORCED TO THE SURFACE

We have been experiencing more and more the Lord working in healing us from many emotions associated with the past. Whatever we have been suppressing or ignoring or putting aside have been forced to the surfaces in these past days. Events would occured in our midst that will triggered certain reactions and we have discovered that as we sift through all these reactions and emotions, that many of them were tied in to our past pains, past fears, past failures, past suppressions.

FOUND ACTING LIKE CHILDREN

God has been showing us where all these started and at times bringing us back to our childhood days and pointing out the specific time and event where all these has taken place . It was like we were inside a theatre watching a movie being played in our mind and that movie was about us. Some of us even found ourselves acting like children (the main character of that movie) and for the first time was able to expressed out to the Lord various emotions which have lie dormant in our sub-conscious mind for so long. All the past phantoms hiding deep within us were being forced out to the surface. This time, we found the Lord walking us through each particular event . We have felt challenges not to run away nor to cover them up , but He has encouraged us to freely shared and expressed these feelings to one another. We have been experiencing a great washing of His love being poured all over us as we allowed Him to retouched us. The stings and pains associated to those times was finally removed from us.

I felt that the work that He is doing now in our midst is not isolated but this could be taking place in a greater scale and happening to many brethren as well and this is the reason why the Lord has led me to share this publicly.

ALMOST ALMOST TO THE PUBLIC

The Lord is about to open His gallery to the public and to show off His Masterpieces to the nations. He has done much work in the lives of His various Masterpieces and now He is finishing and retouching the smallest flaws and imperfections.

Rejoice beloved Masterpieces of the Most High, for He who began a good work in us will be faithful to bring it to completion for the glory of His name.

One of God's Masterpiece,
