I want to start this post with a new song. Receive it as a gift to encourage and expand your heart in your view of yourself.

Celebrate Your Uniqueness

My hands have made you and fashioned you in My image. There is no one else like you. Don’t try to copy others. Influence them through who you are. Be you in the design of My making.

Creativity is freedom from sameness. It all begins in your thoughts. Be free to explore and develop the passions I’ve given you. Thoughts can box you in or free your spirit. Accepting who you are will cause you to thrive in every aspect of your life.

All things work together for good to those who are called according to My purpose. Nothing is in vain. I will redeem it all. The things you have been through have given you eyes to see and ears to hear and compassion to minister to others. I want you to celebrate you as I celebrate you. You are created for My glory.

We are created to think, feel, and choose. Do you love yourself enough to eat healthy, gather with folks who will inspire and challenge you, and be discerning in what you watch and listen to?

Our heart is created to respond to truth. It craves it. However, we can misunderstand our cravings and seek after empty things. Our choices affect every aspect of our lives. When God’s word is hidden in our hearts, it feeds into our thought processes to nourish and satisfy as nothing else on this earth can do.

Listen to the words of these verses. Jeremiah 15:16 says, “Your words were found, and I ate them, and Your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart…” Psalm 104:34 says, “May my meditation be sweet to Him; I will be glad in the Lord.” Psalm 103:5 says, “Who satisfies your mouth with good things, so that your strength is renewed like the eagles.”
