“Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us…” -Ephesians 3:20
What if.
What if we are choosing to live really small lives when God has more planned for us in the world? What if. What if we choose living a life of average when the Creator of the Universe breathed into our hearts His heart and His purpose for greater things in this world? What if. What if Jesus really meant what He said when he told the disciples in John 10:10, “I have come so that you might have life and have it more abundantly“.
There is a path in front of us today. We can choose average, or we can choose the path God has placed before us that is lived out through trusting and following the direction of the Holy Spirit in our lives.
Love this quote from Marianne Williamson:
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, ‘Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?’ Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. ”
So, may you be reminded that you are a child of God. And, may you be reminded that your playing small does not serve the world. Live the life God created you to live.
