I have been trying to work myself into a place of doubt where I know I can feel comfortable; somewhere familiar, a niche just for me. I have been there before.
I am looking for a place where mediocrity has been validated; an area of solace where I can feel good about thinking perhaps tomorrow.
I have been searching for a shallow place to tread; a small plot of earth to till with maybe one day.
I keep finding these places instead:
You are a daughter of the most-high King.
Why not you?
You are a new creature, sanctified and blessed with every spiritual blessing in the heavens.
Why not you?
You are a woman, mother, wife, daughter, sister, and friend.
Why not you?
You have asked for wisdom, and you know the words of truth, the gospel of good news, the story of eternal life.
Why not you?
You are charged to serve others as a manager of the varied grace of God.
Why not you?
You have been healed by a miracle.
Why not you?
I have no excuses to continue to look for my middle-ground. I must fulfill my purpose by obeying exactly the commands I have been given, finding the strength beyond my own to commit my life to the cause of Christ. He has put me in this place to move forward, not just to stay afloat. I am meant to show His perfection in my weakness; to show Him worthy of all glory and honor. I am to tell about THE truth, THE one way, and THE life.
Please, Lord, show your Strength beyond my own. You have said, You are the one. Here I am, Father. Let me be worthy.
