Picked
We all want to be loved. We all want to be chosen. We want to approved. We want to be accepted. We want to be picked. We want to know that we are included. We want to know that we are important. It’s only natural. What if I told you that you are loved? What if I told you that you are special and one of a kind?You are the apple of God’s eye. You are one of God’s creations picked to live and exist in such a time as this. You have a purpose. You were bought with a price. You were picked.
Don't Settle
Don’t settle. It is just as simple as that. You did not come this far to settle. You did not wait this long to settle. You deserve the best. You are better than this. Don’t settle. Don’t get caught up in everyone else’s stuff. What is for you is for you. Wait for it! Trust me it’s worth it. Don’t give up. Don’t fret. It’s still yours. It’s coming. Just a lil’ while longer.
God's Best
Most of us don’t have a clue of what God’s best looks like in our lives. It’s not because we don’t want it. It’s because we’ve been conditioned to accept the status quo. We think that because the struggle has lessened that that is God’s best. Not so. God’s best is beyond our realm of comprehension. It’s bigger than we could think or ask. It’s more than we could ever imagine. Stop settling for good. Stop accepting better. There’s more.
Better
God wants us to be better. God wants us to do better. God wants our best. God wants to give us His best. Most of us settle at good. Good is better than before, so we find contentment in mediocrity. We settle for less. We stop striving. We stop thriving because things are better. Better is not the destination. It's just a pitstop on the road to God's best.
Best
Good. Better. Best. I can admit that I have settled for good. I've been content with better, and yearned for more. Best is God's more. Most of us are happy with our good lives. We have good jobs, good cars, and good kids. Most of us are grateful for better jobs, better homes, and better opportunities. But, there's more. What if we were our best selves? What if we maximized every opportunity? What if we didn't settle? What would we look like living our best lives? Now, is the time to be great. Now, is the time to do our best and be our best.
Quintessential
What are you made out of? At your core, what is your essence? What word would be used to describe you? What's your legacy? If you were to die today, what would they engrave on your tombstone? You were created to become your best self. You are the archetype. The original. The one, the only. You were created to the quintessential version of you. Be great!
