Many times we find ourselves feeling incapable. In other wards, we feel impaired, vulnerable and weak to fulfill what God has called us to do.
This kind of situation brings me back to what persecution people with albinism have faced, especially in Africa. It is amazing how much one can be enslaved with a wrong mentality about something.
What defines you? When someone places a tag on you, do you fall for it? in many instances when we let other people’s opinion of who we are define us, we lose it.
I have brought this illustration, not in any way of offence but to bring to your attention this uniqueness we all hold in us. Allow me get straight to the point.
When you wake up feeling unattractive, infertile, useless, unemployable, stupid, abnormal, defective, not good wife/husband material, suffering innocent, burden to carry, that right there is a lie.
Those thoughts are false. If God has called you to something, He will see you through it.
I believe that there are clear reasons why God’s people (and people in general) have become so unmotivated, stuck in their circumstances, or just bored with their everyday life.
People have lost sight of who God created them to be and what he created them to do and as a result, many are not pursuing that “thing” that God has created them to do or who He has created them to be.
You are not a Christian with disabilities, but with multiple special abilities before God. God does not create failures and losers in life. That is what the enemy wants to keep away from you.
When you lose sight of who you are in God and what God has called you to do then life seems to lose all sense of purpose.
Your life seems boring and you feel like you are going to be stuck forever in whatever season of life you are in. It definitely takes DAILY talks with God and DAILY time at Jesus’ feet for us to make sure that our will and His will are aligned with each other.
That doesn’t mean that we make sure what we are doing is “okay” with God, it means that we find God’s will for our life and make sure what we are doing or going to do is His will for us.
It’s really easy to become complacent with our lives. Sometimes we feel slighted, like God must by passed us by when he was handing out “GREAT LIVES”.
We don’t have enough money, enough time, etc… We get stuck in how badly things seem because we compare our lives and circumstances to those people around us or those people on t.v. They seem to have it all together, more than they can use and we wish that we could have even a little of what they have. Comparing ourselves to others causes us to come satisfied with what we think is adequate or satisfactory.
I think it’s VERY IMPORTANT for us all to realize that we are ALL predestined to something great. And one day we WILL arrive. When we do arrive God has given us the key to open the door into our destiny.
The key is IN HIS WORD, the Bible! Even if you don’t feel ready (and most of the time we won’t) go ahead and step-up and step-into your destiny. Reach your full potential in God. He wants that more than anything for us.
We will fail, but don’t go back to drinking milk just because you made a mistake. We are reconciled: OUR SINS are PAID IN FULL when Jesus died on the cross. He isn’t crucifying us every time we make a mistake so why should we crucify ourselves?
Walk in the Spirit. See the “CHRIST” person in yourself and also in others. Remember: Nothing can come in or out of my life unless GOD allows it to.
God loves us all enough to let us choose. Our choices are what makes us either strong or weak. Each morning we can wake up and choose GOD’S path, the path to happiness and fulfillment, the path to learning and walking into our FULL POTENTIAL.
So friends, let’s WAKE UP and CHOOSE GOD.
