Your the only you in this world

You see it's important you understand this. It is important because the church, and ultimately the world needs you to understand this so that you can fulfill your God given purpose on this earth.  God created you specifically for this time. 1 Corithians 12 tells us that God created you with a specific gift that is needed in order for the church to operate properly. He likened us to a body; we are all parts of this body each with a different function but all needed in order for the body to function properly. The more time we spend trying to be something we're not the more time the body will be deformed, unable to operate properly. Too often we think that our part doesn't matter. That we aren't gifted enough to make a difference. That we just weren't given enough talent to really change anything. This in part is true, we in ourselves cannot truly cause change but as we see ourselves as He sees us (truly relying upon His strength and not our own) the sky is the limit. This is where He wants us to place our reliance, upon Him. "Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ" Phil 1:6. As we gain this confidence in knowing that He is at work in us so that He can work through us; We will gain the confidence needed to be who God created us to be. Uniquely you! We will also then approach life with a sense of urgency in becoming who God created us to be so that the body can truly function to its full potential. Approach today with the understanding that your needed by the world to be you. Because there is no other you in this world!! Be Blessed!!
