‘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 (NLT)
‘There are different kinds of service, but we serve the same Lord. God works in different ways, but it is the same God who does the work in all of us.’ 1 Corinthians 12:5-6 (NLT)
‘God has given each of you a gift from his great variety of spiritual gifts. Use them well to serve one another. ‘ 1 Peter 4:10 (NLT)
‘So whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. ‘ 1 Corinthians 10:31 (NLT)
By learning to breathe, bless, and release, we can give in to the days we’re in. If our decisions are rooted in what’s real in the moment, perhaps that’s how we get closest to the truest versions of ourselves. Sometimes that’s an impossible thing to figure out. But what helped me was to think about what role brings out my truest self for the life I’m currently in. What fosters your strengths? What brings out sides of yourself you aren’t proud of? What allows you to live a life that makes your soul sing? What allows you to serve in the best way? For me, these are the days of mothering, writing, and teaching. I accept it and release what was in order to fully pursue what is right here. And what’s right here is pretty great.
Are you willing to find out where your passion will take you? Are you ready to see where it leads?
