"Poetry" by Ash Wiseman: You're Not an Accident, You're Art


Do you ever wonder if you’re truly known — or just tolerated?

A poet doesn’t rush. Every word gets weighed, every line gets shaped, every detail matters before the poem ever reaches the page. “Poetry” by Ash Wiseman is about you, as a poem that God took His time to write. Not a rough draft or created by accident. A “precious masterpiece, a labor of love, an intentional creation.” 

ash wiseman - poetryAsh sings: “I am Your poetry, with detail You created me.” No searching required, or a requirement to first prove yourself. Just this: “I love you and You love me, and that’s all that I really ever need.” Read that again. That’s the whole message of this song summed up in one line. 

Read how Ephesians 2:10 backs this up: “For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.” Workmanship. That’s not a vague compliment — it’s the same word that is used for a work of art. God didn’t mass-produce you. He crafted a unique version of you, with specific gifts, a specific calling, and a specific place in His story. 

So what are you doing with that today? Stop auditioning for love that you already have. Stop measuring your worth against everyone else’s poem. You are unique! You were written with intention, and that means that your life has a purpose, whether you already feel it or not. Let that truth help you to get back up on your feet and going again the next time you fall — because falling doesn’t erase His poem. He picks you up. He dries your eyes. That’s not weakness; that’s design. 

Listen to this song and let the song's message sink in. “It’s good, it’s good to know and be known.”

(Related scripture: ‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭2‬:‭10‬; Psalm 139:13-14; Zephaniah 3:17)

Background:

Just like a poet pours time, detail, and care into their poem, God poured time, detail, and care into us when He made us. We wrote ‘poetry’ talking about the sweetness of knowing God loves you and wants to know you. And isn’t that all we really need? We’re created and known by the Creator of the universe, and it is our delight to know Him and love Him back!

A poet pours time and care and dedication into their poem. This piece of artwork is their precious masterpiece, a labor of love, an intentional creation. One could say we are God’s poetry, created in loving detail; He’s writing the story of our lives and has created us with unique skills, attributes, and callings.

“For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.” ‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭2‬:‭10‬ ‭ESV‬‬

"Jesus Is His Name" by Aaron Goodhew: The Name That Changes Everything

“Jesus Is His Name” by Aaron Goodhew is a song written as a Christ-centred declaration of who God is and what He has done. The song begins by asking, “Who designed creation and called it into being?” and quickly answers by pointing our eyes “high above the heavens” and leading us to the very place “where he rests his feet.” In other words, this is worship from creation to restoration. Each verse walks through different parts of Christ’s work: parting waters, calming storms, healing lepers, restoring outcasts, setting captives free. The chorus invites the church to confess together: "He is the Lord God // Lifted up // Mighty to be praised // Sovereign King of kings // Name above all names." But most of all, He is the personal Savior “The one who paid our ransom // The one who saved a wretch like me.” The bridge crowns this declaration, calling Jesus “wonderful counsellor, mighty king and friend,” the Lion and the Lamb whose glory we cannot fully comprehend. A declaration...

Vertical Worship - Blessed (CCM)

Vertical Worship has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Blessed. The Beatitudes serve as the inspiration for this new track. Quoting Vertical Worship: “The first line of the sermon on the mount, ‘Blessed are the poor in Spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven’ are words that we may be familiar with, but hold a profound invitation from Jesus. It is not those who have it all figured out, or have all the answers that will know more of His kingdom, but rather those who recognize their need of Him. And more of Him means more of His rule, His reign in my life. His law is love and He comes near with mercy.” They continued, “So, quite simply, that’s where the song started, from a place of remembering, a place of trust that when we turn to Jesus, we gain more of Him. And more of Him means more of His presence, His peace, His love. For what does it matter to gain the whole world, but forfeit our soul? What a gift that we get to at any moment recognize our deep need fo...
