Have you ever felt like you've never quite fit in? Ever wondered why?
F |
or years, I tried diligently and desperately to fit in. I worked my heart out to look, speak, and flow in with the crowd but something strange began to happen. The harder I tried I be like everyone else, the more apparent it became that I just didn't fit in. I thought it was like a curse. I tried to fit into my family - nope. I tried to fit in at school - nope.
When I was in Corporate America, I tried to fit in at work - nope. One day deflated and demoralized, I just knelt down on my knees teary eyed and cried out to the Lord and just like a gentle whisper in the wind, the Spirit of the Lord came upon me and spoke these words...
"You have never fit in and will never fit in with the crowd no matter how hard you try, because you're not supposed to! You were formed, created, wired, and fashioned to be a catalyst for change - the answer to problems that exists in the world!" That day was the turning point to the discovery of my purpose and identity.
Do you feel as if no matter how hard you try, you just don't fit in? Do you sit up at night not being able to sleep? Do you feel an emptiness, a longing, a quiet desperation? It's God calling you to walk into your purpose, because it's time!
You were formed, created, and fashioned in your mother's womb with a physical and spiritual DNA so unique that there is no other person on Earth that can fulfill the purpose, the answer, the solution to the problems God has purposed you to fulfill in only the way you can fulfill them. Did you know that you were dreamed in the mind and heart of God before you were even born?
Absorb the life changing power in God's word found in his promise in Jeremiah 1:4 - 5:
4 The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
5 “Before I formed you in the womb I knew[a] you,
before you were born I set you apart;
I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.”
and Jeremiah 29:11 - 14:
"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. 12 Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. 13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. 14 I will be found by you,” declares the LORD..."
Whoa! Meditate on that. If you are in this place or have children or teenagers battling low self esteem, because they feel that they are not popular or just don't fit in make this scripture part of your family morning or evening devotion. Talk about it. Discuss not just your child's dreams, but their differences. Celebrate them, recognize them with your children so they can see their uniqueness is truly a blessing!!
Dearly beloved, you are a MASTERPIECE!! Amazingly gifted, skilled, crafted, anointed, and destined for GREATNESS!! If you are reading this very note, it's no coincidence.
You are a leader, born to equip, edify others, and set them free. So how could you draw the crowd if you never stood out from the crowd? You are different because you have to be to fulfill the purpose God has created for your life.
- YOUR GIFTS, SKILLS, TALENTS, & ABILITIES IS GOD'S GIFT TO YOU BELOVED.
- YOUR DIFFERENCE IS YOUR GIFT TO THE WORLD!
