"And this is the Confidence that we have in Him that if we ask anything according to His will, He heareth us. And if we know that He hears us whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petition that we desire of Him." 1 John 5:14 (KJV)
We all have a purpose in life. No matter what role we find ourselves in, we know that God created us to be somebody. We are put here for a purpose, to do something worthwhile with our lives.
God has a plan. He gave us the best He had, His only begotten Son, that we might be free in Him. And through Him, we can be an example to others.
There is nothing that we can't do, if we set our mind to it. We all have the potential to become somebody if we desire!
What is it that keeps you from making it happen?
God wants you to know, "Nay, in all things, we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us." Romans 8:37
How does one see a conqueror, as weak, or very strong? Of course, the answer is strong. How do you think of yourself? Do you see yourself accomplishing that job? Or do you see yourself defeated before you ever get started?
It is much more exciting to know that I can, than I can't. If I know I can accomplish a task, it makes me feel good. And others around me will be affected by how I feel. Realize that you are someone special and that God's Word will work for you!
