Your Are God's Workmanship

Ephesians 2:10 (Amplified Bible Translation)

For we are His (God's) workmanship [His own master work, a work of art], created in Christ Jesus [reborn from above -- spiritually transformed, renewed, ready to be used] for good works, which God prepared [for us] beforehand [taking paths which He set], so that we would walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us].

From my Spirit-filled Life Bible

Word Wealth: Workmanship Greek: poiema, from the verb poieo, "to make." (Compare "Poem" and "poetry.") The word signifies that which is manufactured, a product, a design produced by an artisan. Poiema emphasizes God as the Master Designer, the universe as His creation (Romans 1:20), and the redeemed believer as His new creation (Ephesians 2:10). Before conversion our lives had no rhyme or reason. Conversion brought us balance, symmetry, and order. We are God's poem, His work of art.
