I was walking…..
Then I lifted my eyes…..
In the distance……
I saw a beautiful and unique creature
I stood amazed
Who carved this creature
He must have been a good sculpture
Then I remembered
He is the Creator and greatest Sculpture
So I drew closer…..
Ah, such confidence in that look
Such beauty inside and outside;
Uniqueness exuded from this creature
Glory and excellence was not missing either
This Creator must be proud of His handiwork
I said to myself…..
Does she know about it?
Oh! That he would refuse to look down on himself or think he amounts to nothing
Potential is what I see!
Power is what is manifested!
This poem is about YOU!
It’s to tell you that….. You carry so much potential
To tell you that…..You are not like any other person
You have a unique and different testimony. Never belittle yourself
It’s to tell you that…..Your life is a testimony to many
Your very smile makes the saddened heart joyful
Your warm hug melts away every fear and confusion
That pat on the back encourages and motivates
Your quiet presence is all that person needs
Your very words are like a penetrating sword, which sinks into the depths of the soul and spirit
Like a mighty dynamo they carry power and bring about tremendous effect
Love, YOU have all that it takes to change a life
GOD created you for a reason and a purpose
He made you the way you are to fulfill that particular purpose
You are not an accident!
Neither were you brought into the world by chance
The Creator fashioned and intricately made YOU
Believe it or not, He is crazy about YOU
So in love words cannot express
He’s so overjoyed and excited to see you accomplish His purpose for you
Beloved, YOU are the apple of His eye…..
The one He desires to be with….
YOU, yes YOU
Don’t let Him down….Stand up…..Stand tall…..Remember you have potential…..
And make your Creator and Father proud
THE WORLD IS BLESSED TO HAVE YOU

Locate yourself in God’s purpose
And say to Archippus, take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in the Lord, that thou fulfill it (Colossians 4:17)
As a child of God, it is important that you locate yourself in God’s purpose for your life and function in it. Functioning in God’s purpose for you will make your life count both in quality and in the impact you make in your world.
There are three basic ways you can find and keep yourself in God’s purpose for you. First it is by praying often in the spirit. Praying in the spirit helps to position you in line with God’s thinking and activate your spirit to receive His thoughts. When your spirit is activated, he’s then able to receive God’s signals, counsel and guidance. Then you find that your actions are in sync with God’s purpose and plan for your life.
Something else you have to do to locate yourself and function in God’s purpose is to focus on those things God has called you to do. If you keep your focus and refuse to be distracted, you’ll be walking in God’s purpose from one level of glory to another. Don’t push to the future the things God has asked you to do now; focus on them and do them NOW, for your future begins now! So now is the time to do the things God has asked you to do.
The third thing to do in locating yourself in God’s purpose is to meditate on God’s Word; assimilate His thoughts into your spirit. That way, your spirit will be conditioned to act in line with the will of God. If you do these things, the necessary result is that the Spirit of God will guide you into the perfect will of God for your life, such that you’ll never have to wonder whether or not you’re doing the right thing; you’ll know.
Prayer
Dear Father, thank you for granting me the length of days, and for helping me fulfill my destiny and calling in Christ. I’m running my race swiftly, pressing toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus, under the inspiration of your Spirit, and guidance of your Word, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
