God makes me who I am! He is the best journalist in the world, to be able to write a story that practically the whole world knows so well. He is a perfect artist to be able to paint land, sea, sky, sun, moon, stars, animals, plants. And last but not least, he is the greatest potter, for He shaped our lives from dust. He shaped my life, very, very carefully. I am unique. I stand out of a crowd. He made me a person that you don't see very often.
Who am I? You ask. I'm God's child. Who will I be? You wonder. I will be a person that God is going to use greatly. Through all my pain, through all the hurt, and through everything I will have to face. God will bring forth strengths. I knew you even before you were conceived (Jeremiah 1:4-5) I chose you when I planned creation (Ephesians 1:11-12)In this life, God will use you too. He may not use you to be a minister, he may have shaped you out to be a police officer, or a teacher, or a fire-fighter, or simply just a janitor, or a stay at home mother or father. What ever he chooses for you, just know that God had your best interests in mind.
I have been called to be a person who goes to bible school then, Africa and Asia. I cannot wait for that day to come. I cannot wait to hold those precious little babies, and kids in my arms and tell them how much their father loves them. Tell them that with God they have a hopeful future.
If you seek me with all your heart, you will find me (Deuteronomy 4:29) Delight in me and I will give you the desires of your heart (Psalm 37:4) For it is I who gave you those desires (Philippians 2:13) I am able to do more for you than you could possibly imagine (Ephesians 3:20)Don't look at others and wish to be like them. Look at God and wish to be like Him. Envy his perfectiveness. His love for others. If you want to be like God, you will be more and more like Him everyday. Now, you will never be perfect. Because you're human, but don't let that get you down. Just keep your mind on him. Keep your faith strong. For you were made in my image (Genesis 1:27). This is a very important part of scripture. You were made in the image of God. Therefore you can strive more and more to be like him.
Most people are like sheep, they follow the pasture. And they're like birds and follow the flock. Don't let this be you, yes, stay with the crowd. But stay out along the edge. Wander off on your own a little ways. You need to test your own ability. With God you'll do great. “Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” Some thing's that happen in your life are from God. But other thing's they are sent from the devil! Just to destroy you! He sends darkness your way and wants to watch your destruction. Therefore you have to resist his. Resist what he gives. And submit the thing's that God does. Make your life a ground that others can see the footprints of God in. Get Satan off your butt. Send him running with his tail between his legs. NEVER let him rest. After you're done with him he'll be giving you his resignation.
