“For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.” Ephesians 2:10

Product design is a process concerned with efficient and effective generation and development of ideas through a process that leads to new products. Every new product is made according to certain specifications and its use is designed to achieve certain objectives. In other words, a product is made with its purpose in mind e.g. A Cell phone for mobile communication, Mascara for extending eyelashes, YouTube for uploading short videos etc. In addition, a product is made with its capacity to perform ( e.g. the Mascara should be able to extend the length of one’s eyelashes ) and may have to operate within certain limiting factors(e.g. YouTube’s maximum video length is only 15minutes).

The best person to tell you about a product is its creator, (S)he knows more about its capabilities, limiting factors and purpose more than anyone. Even more, they are the best to solve any malfunction of the product. And to make it even easier, they develop manuals which show how the product should be used as well as what to do in the event troubleshooting occurs.

Ok so what am I getting at? Is this a free tutorial of product engineering? No, not at all! The above is actually an illustration of our life situation. Really!!?? Yes, really! WE are the product, God is the creator and The Bible is the Manual!

So in essence we have been created for a purpose, with certain capabilities, though no limiting factors exist as I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.( ref Philippians 4:13) . Have you ever asked yourself why you are here today? Why did God create you and put you in this place? What can you do? What are your limiting factors? Turn to the Creator and the Manual for answers. Are you troubleshooting (sick, broke, depressed etc.) also refer to the Manual and find ways to rectify the problems.

I cannot emphasise it enough, learn to study God’s  Word and continually ponder on it as it ensures a high product success rate as stated in Joshua 1:8 , “This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.”

Stay Blessed
