God knew what He was doing when he fabricated the substance of your being together and put in you the seed of greatness to be nurtured, see yourself through His lens.
Does it not interest you that with about 8 billion people in the whole world, nobody looks exactly like you? No one has the same voice print, fingerprint and eye print as you do. God made you so unique that nobody else has same specificities as you!
No matter how small you appreciate the importance of your minimus (little finger), its little infection with whitlow (or herpetic whitlow) can sentence your whole body to a sleepless night and make you suffer the anguish of the excruciating pain.
You see, sometimes, like the little finger, you may be overwhelmed with a feeling unworthiness because you do not meet up with the required standards amidst peers, but remember that you are your most prized possession and at the end, it will still be about you anyways.
Reducing yourself to a speck of a trifling and inconsequential fluff is not humility! Don't look down on yourself, don't you dare do it!! Your perceived "little you" may mean a teardrop in a giant ocean; making a ripple, which still makes a wave all the same!!!
Being small today neither equates weakness nor purposelessness. Hey! You are not insignificant, love yourself, love on yourself big time and become comfortable in your own skin as you make tangible progress. Shalom!

The whole wide word will not appreciate or elevate you not until when you appreciate or elevate yourself. It is then that you are widely appreciated
ReplyDeleteYour contributions towards you seeing yourself as not significant matter most. Like we do say heaven helps those who help them; no wonder He told us to go into the world to multiply, replenish, be fruitful and subdue. Why then will someone look down on himself/herself. Some people people will get to heaven and they will not be able to console themselves when they come to actualization what the Lord has given or released unto them.
ReplyDeleteGod is still speaking.
It is a wonderful compilation and I know someone will be motivated by this and triggered for repentance.
Well done, more fire shut up in your bones to be able to deliver and deliver others. 🗣🗣
