Ephesians 2:10

For we are His 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).

We are works of art!  A piece of art is created to shine and stand out as its creator designed it to be.   That means we are unique and have a purpose set out before we were born by God.  We are to do good works because we are transformed in our spirits and endued with the power to produce good fruit.  Our self-image changes to shine and reflect the light of Jesus.
