I bought a light bulb today. I'm finally replacing the one that got busted. Thomas Edison, the inventor of the light bulb, was a very prolific inventor. According to wikipedia, he has 1,093 U.S. patents in his name. Now, that's a lot of inventions. His inventions also include the phonograph and the motion picture camera.
I always wanted to be an inventor. I like the thrill of discovering new things and the thought of contributing to mankind. That's why I admire Thomas Edison. But still the greatest of all inventors is the one who invented this thing called "love." In fact He is love. Whoever is without love does not know God, for God is love (1 John 14:8). Out of His love, he created mankind. All of us on earth, all 7 billion of us, is patented by God in heaven. Not to mention those who have gone before us in all history. None of us are alike. No two fingerprints are alike, no two voice prints are alike, no two eye prints are alike, and no two heartbeat patterns are alike. We are all God's great inventions, made out of his great love.
May we not forget how special we are. If you come to doubt your value and importance, remember that God made sure you are one of a kind.
