Missing out on the bigger plan God had for my life was not something I wanted to look back on. I didn’t want to live with the regret of choosing to miss out on my calling. This was bigger than me. I was going to do it for all the broken little girls. I didn’t want to look back and see that I didn’t do what I was supposed to have done. I looked grown but deep down inside me still was this broken little girl and I knew what it felt like to feel like you’re just going around in circles in life. I also knew how to overcome it. So, how could I not share it?
Let’s start with I was loved. I was wanted. Two truths I couldn’t really believe because I was so broken. How was I going to sell people on something I didn’t even believe myself? Slowly but surely he changed my mind on who I thought I was. I might have been all those things on the surface but broken, crazy and hurt wasn’t where I wanted to stay.
I wanted to like my job, not hate it. I didn’t always want to think the worst of people. It gets exhausting having to watch your back all the time. All those things were getting in the way of me figuring out what I was going to do with my life. I didn’t want to look back and see that there were many people I could have helped but didn’t. I didn’t want to look back and see that I let my loved ones down.
"Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations." - Jeremiah 1:5
I especially didn’t want to let God down. God was the only one who has believed in me since day one and saw me as someone who was worth sacrificing for and was worth all the love, even when I was the most unlovable, he chose to love me over and over again. That is why you are reading this today, he never gave up on me and without him I couldn’t and wouldn’t have but with him, let’s just say I’m driving with no ceilings because the limit does not exist.
