I love YouVersion. I love that I have access to the bible and dang near any translation at the sweep of my little finger. And, when I read Galatians 6:4-5 in The Message translation, well, I was convicted.
Make a careful exploration of who you are and the work you have been given, and then sink yourself into that. Don’t be impressed with yourself. Don’t compare yourself with others. Each of you must take responsibility for doing the creative best you can with your own life.
Is this translation not the awesomest? Yes. Awesomest. Look it up. It’s a word.
I’m just kiddin’. It’s not really.
I love this. I love that it made me take my eyes off of other people and what they are doing, or not doing, for the Kingdom. Puh-retty judgmental of me, don’t ya think? Yeppers. Grrr you, Dusty Takle. There were times I would look at others and wonder why they weren’t as passionate about something as I was. Never mind that we are all fearfully and wonderfully made….that we were each created for a unique purpose.
I am responsible for my own life. And, you are responsible for yours. I know. My life revelations are astounding, eh? Eh?
Here’s the deal, in case you don’t know or may have forgotten:
God created you.
You are not an accident.
He has a plan for you.
You have a purpose in life.
You matter.
And, we all need you.
Y’all come back tomorrow. I’ll be here.
For real.
