Unique Within Creation – v2

The devotional asked, posed,

a different, a challenging question,

asking how I am “unique in creation”

A thought not easily answered in simple terms

our DNA, our fingerprints may be unique;

but what of our experience, our thoughts,

our dreams for our future. I am

created, molded, evolving

everything I have seen, tasted, smelled,

heard, felt; everything I have done,

everything I have chosen not to do.

My mother’s son, my wife’s husband,

father to my girls. Poet, attorney, prophet,

accountant, neighbor, and more.

I am unique in creation

because I exist and just as God

is found in the great I Am,

a statement of ownership, of being

so we, each of us, born in the image,

more than mere flesh, our clay

alive, an embodiment

the image of God, each I, is unique.
