I Am Significant

Updated: Mar 22, 2021

Stinking thinking, have you heard that expression? I have been known to do that a lot in my life. “NO one can beat me up better than myself.” was my motto for most if not all of my life. How true is that for us? Why would God care about me, I am just an insignificant person in this whole world. I am not famous, I don’t bank a millions of dollars for the things that I do. I am just a wife, mother and grandmother who lives quietly, volunteers at her church, and is struggling to fulfil her call in ministry. I am a nobody. I can hear my friends saying “That’s not true.” This belief is backed up with, “I ask for help, but it never comes, but oh all the times I have helped so and so. Never again.”


The reality is who are we asking for help? Are we asking the right people? Why do we allow stinking thinking to invade our minds? Why do we thing so little of ourselves? It’s that our mind is set on a loop. Especially if it is a loop you have been stuck in for years. We have been running on the hamster wheel while the Holy Spirit has been holding out it’s hand saying “JUMP I WILL CATCH YOU!” It’s not a yell, but a persistent whisper, just in the back of your mind. You just have to shut up the stink and jump!


God is there for you, all you need to do is ask. James 4:2 (NJKV)“You don’t have, because you do not ask.” Instead of “No one can beat me up better than myself” as a motto, just change it to Matthew 19:26 (NIV) Jesus looked at them and said “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible” You are not significant, you are a child of God and you can have all the benefits that come with that inheritance, all you have to do is ASK. You are somebody!


I know it’s not that easy, I battle with this everyday, but I can make you a promise, little by little, the more you trust the Holy Spirit to catch you, the faster that hamster wheel will become a flat surface that God paves for you. I am really enjoying the flat service, the hamster wheel not so much.


Yours In Christ

Heather
