Chosen: Becoming the Person You Were Meant to BeBài mẫu

You need to make the decision to live again after disappointment, failures, or things not going as planned. God is in the business of second, third, fourth, and fortieth chances to start over and get it right. Don’t let the enemy keep you in a place of stagnation or fear. Many people are merely existing. Existing, by definition, means to be present at the time. God wants you to live! To live means to be in motion. You need to realize it doesn’t matter what is going on in the present; you have a future that was predetermined by God before you were conceived. Your future is far greater than your present circumstance. Job was a man who suffered more than most of us. He lost his business, his wealth, his children, and his health. His friends accused him of bringing it all upon himself. His wife told him to curse God for everything and just give up. Job made a choice to remain steadfast in his faith and belief in the God he served. God rewarded his faith and perseverance in the face of tribulation. Deciding to live again sometimes means we need to hit the restart button. We may feel like we are already behind in life and that starting over will put us even further behind, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Instead of trying to fix something that’s broken, starting over can propel us further ahead to becoming the best version of ourselves. Celebrate your life, not your possessions. When you’re starting over with nothing, you have no reputation. Jesus said He wasn’t trying to make Himself famous. He came to do what the Father had purposed for His life. He put others ahead of Him, and that’s what you should do as well. Just because you are chosen for a great work doesn’t mean you are not going to make mistakes or find yourself in desperate situations. It does mean that God’s hand is on your life and that grace is following you to protect you.
