Isaiah 43:7. Even every one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him.
Three expressions are here used concerning the man who is called by God’s name. First, "I have created him," - made him out of nothing. Then, "I have formed him" - fashioned him, made him into his proper shape. The last sentence may be read, "Yea, I have completed him." When God begins his work in us, we are in the rough; as he goes on working in us, we gradually take the form of his dear Son; and by-and-by he will complete us, and then we shall wake up in his likeness. Blessed be his name for this!
