Ecouragement 

You are you - Part II

2/17/2015

It's beautiful to know that God accepts you as you are, your personality and what you might perceive as 'flaws' or 'quirks'.  

In re-affirming this, you know that God KNITTED you in your mothers’ womb (Psalm 139:13). Before mommy and daddy DECIDED that they were going to conceive (or however this happened),  God was thinking about you, and then you became a design, His design, specially created, then FORMED you perfectly, detail to detail (Psalm 100:3). Your parents (and the womb) were a CHANNEL for that the same way MARY was a CHANNEL for Jesus. Mary didn’t start saying “Sorry God, I carried Him and even though you helped me to conceive I made Him by pushing so uh…back off I know and decide His destiny.” I'm sure she had a mother's love for sure, but even in comparison to God, that love was limited as God foreknew the utlimate & purposeful birth of that baby Boy :) Thus, each baby's birth has a purpose and it's not because mom and dad were chillin' one night and you were born months later nor were you a 'mistake'… 
If we only got a behind-the-scenes exclusive of God's thought process and hearing Him say after each child, "right on time", we'd be very pleased! :)        

So, if there is a purpose, that means we must know who and whose we are, right? (this is called the 'being', where we just 'be', and know that in of itself, we have worth and value as God's people) and that also means that there's some work to do right? 

Sister, brother, If there is some work for us, then there is NO ONE LIKE YOU ;) You are you. Isn’t that special just thinking of that? That means, what's made for you, is for you :) Keep going because only you can do what only you were made specially fit to do. 

This is important because it brings us to our destiny: “Your destiny is far too important to try to FIT into someone’s notion of what you ARE”.  i.e. It’s not worth it in comparison to who you REALLY are truly DESTINED to become and DESTINED TO DO; Your DESIGN, is PERFECTLY YOU! You know those people who do drag shows to impersonate let’s say, Tina Turner, that’s NOT your role, lol. Be YOU. Be the STAR YOU’RE meant to be, no need to copy any one else to be “successful”.

You are God’s WORKMANSHIP (FINEST WORK), CREATED to do GOOD WORKS. He PREPARED YOU, in ADVANCE so you can do a particular work.

Destiny.

I want to encourage you not to pull a Jonah but to be a ____(insert your name)__. You are You. Beautifully. I feel like there was a lot of repetition here, but it's important :) 

Don’t be afraid to stand out.

God bless you and see you!!!  <3

Key Word:   
Prepared: 'make ready for use,' 'pre-planned', 'make (someone) ready or be able to do or deal with something - i.e. EQUIPPED. :) <3
With love.

 For we are God's masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago -Ephesians 2:10
