I honestly believe you can be single and do great things, possible even have a sky high confidence in yourself, but to be purposed is to discover that you have a need, a void in your heart and it needs to be filled. Not By all the world offers such as, materiel things, careers, men, relationships, love, money, and many other things. These are all good, but not if you believe it will fill the void in your heart. It will never happen and you will continue your search for more but never have it quenched!
I think we can move to the next segment, I hope I haven't said this in way to confuse or offend but I hope to encourage and bring hope!
TAKE #2
Well let's discover Jesus as a King! Hebrews 1:8-9, explains Jesus a king that will reign forever!
I once had an older woman point something out to me. She said "Anita according to Hebrews 1:8-9, do you believe Jesus is a King?" I said, "yes." Then she said "have you accepted him as your saviour?" I said, "Of Course". Then she asked me, "what does that make you?" After a moment I realized her point and said, "I am a Princess".
WOW! I am a princess. We all are if we have accepted him as our saviour!
You may not believe me, but that the bible says in Psalms 68:5b "He will father the fatherless."
1John 3:1 "Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not."
Are you beginning to get a picture of who you are in Christ? Jesus is our Heavenly Father, we were adopted through faith. We are his daughters! Jesus is also, a King who reigns in Heaven! We are Princesses!
I remember being new in my walk with the Lord and even a while after, I knew this to be knowledge in my head, but I could not seem to understand it and let it wrap itself around my heart long enough to change who I saw my self as! I kept believing I was as filthy rags because that was the label put on me by someone else's sin. I saw a girl who was short and chubby and plain. But when I was 19, God took one situation to finally shake me up enough to let him show me that I was his daughter, a princess, Royalty! I am not confident of myself but have confidence in who I am IN Christ!! In fact, it says, in Phillipians, that "I can do ALL things through Christ, who strengthens me."
To Be continued......
