Doing Your Part

There comes a time in your life when you have to decide is it in your best interest to continue to please those around you and remain in a state of what if, or take a leap of faith and pursue your own aspirations. If everything you have ever done in your life was to please someone else, does that mean the life you are currently living a mere fabrication? God has a plan and a purpose for each one of us. He instills specific gifts and talents to each of his children. Believe it or not the gift or gifts you possess may be outside of your comfort zone. This almost always is a bit challenging. Sometimes that is why you can get caught off guard because you think whatever gift God has given you to share would surely be something that is pleasant and easy to achieve. Keep in mind God does not give us unattainable tasks, but rather tasks that will deepen our level of commitment and faith in Him. However if you are pursuing someone else's gift and not your own, you are not following God's divine plan for your life. What that means is that you are missing the opportunity to move closer to God as well as be a blessing to those in need. According to

Romans 12: 1-2

Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God - this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is - his good, pleasing and perfect will.

Be Blessed,

Lady 4.0
