Lift Your Spirit ~ “Chosen”

God planned long ago to choose you by making you his holy people, which is the Spirit’s work. God wanted you to obey him and to be made clean by the blood of the death of Jesus Christ.

Grace and peace be yours more and more. 1 Peter 1:2 NCV

Sweet Friend, this has got to be the best news and reason to rise out of bed today.

Perhaps you’ve been wrestling with some really tough situations and ugly circumstances this week. I get you. And at times, you feel like throwing your arms up and giving up ~ but don’t, because you hear that still small voice from deep within calling your name.

With all that is within me, I want you to know that the Savior is calling your name and has so much more in store for you. Because you have been chosen to fulfill an Assignment that no. one else can. It has your name on it.

I’m no stranger to the challenges of life and the lessons of perseverance. And I wouldn’t be telling you the truth if I didn’t admit to the countless times of being pushed back. When my ideas, opinions, contributions seemed to fall on deaf ears and uninterested hearts.

But GOD …

He sustained me and kept me going and still does, because those challenges don’t stop coming. They simply look different. But the change in me is in the power to trust Him to do it again and again and again. Needless to say, my staying power has leveled up ~ because I remember to look up.

Whatever you are facing today, look it square in the face and say this:

31 What then shall we say about these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? Romans 8:31 NET

I love you to Heaven and Back, Girlfriend ~
