Trust And Live

There is so much to unpack in these four lines. These four lines could easily be turned into a monster discussion, writing or podcast.

Today though, think about your dreams, your story and how what has happened to you has lined up to put you on the path you are walking.

Trust that the things that have happened to you have happened so you can use them for your good and to also help you to help others.

As you reflect on your dreams and your story you can then live your life on purpose and with a purpose.

You have been given a sphere of influence that is directly related to your dreams and your story.

You are where you are right now for a reason doing what you are doing with the people who need you to do it.  Be faithful to that.

I’m Cheering For You.

Questions to Ponder and Pursue

1.  How can reflecting on past experiences and understanding their impact on your journey help you find a sense of purpose and direction in life?

2.  In what ways can recognizing your unique story and sphere of influence inspire you to make a positive impact on those around you?

Ephesians 2:10 ESV‬

[10] For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them. 

Remember that you are not here by chance. You are God’s handiwork, crafted with care and intention.  

Ephesians 2:10 is an encouraging reminder that you were created in Christ Jesus to do good works that God has prepared in advance.  

This truth means that your story, your dreams, and your unique path are part of a greater plan.

Each experience you’ve had, every challenge you’ve faced, is a piece of a puzzle that God is piecing together. 

Don’t underestimate the impact of your journey.  Your life has purpose and meaning. You were designed to be a light in the world, to bring hope, and to make a difference. 

Embrace your God-given gifts and talents.  Let your faith guide you as you step into the works that God has prepared for you. 

Be bold, be courageous, and trust that He is leading you in the right direction.  Keep walking in His purpose, knowing that you are exactly where you need to be to fulfill His divine plan.

Be Blessed!
