If I told you that you are placed on purpose?
Did you know that even the way that you carry yourself creates a ripple and can be on purpose and either in or out of alignment with the ways God has planned for you in His great image?
How much would you adjust the ways that you do things and contribute if you knew that every bit of your doings mattered?
I have realized through the many ways of living a life surrendered to our Father and the movement of the Holy Spirit that most of the days I am being of service in some way whether knowingly on purpose or in just allowance spiritually. That is one of the reasons why I don’t believe in “half-assing” anything and believe me there have been plenty of times that the enemy has attempted to get me to do less than my best – while others may not see the difference in me going the extra mile, I know and our Father knows and that is worth more to me than the extra minute that might have been gained. Recently I have also had the privilege to see how my experience in a shelter helped guide another person through and in to the shelter for their own saving grace to transition into better living. I have seen the relief that was felt in an owner when they could relax coming home knowing there was absolutely nothing they needed to do and one of the greatest tell all’s is with animals responding so honestly with just so much love.
Every little bit of who are is so very essential. I remember that during the shelter times I continued to feel and hear messages from the Holy Spirit about how I was placed on purpose. I know that the purpose was both for Him and my own letting go and developing. I was able to witness His presence and miracles in provisions out of nothing and I was able to still participate in making a tough environment better in some way, even if it was just helping clean up.
God’s ways and views are far greater than ours ever will be. I don’t think we will ever see the fullness of our lives impact until it is shown to us when we get to His throne but I know that there is a thread of His love and image that runs through each and all of us. It is when we are aware of our Kingdom participation and actively invite the Holy Spirit to lead that we allow more clarity in the purpose.
I know it can seem silly when you might not appreciate where you are living, working or whatever… but if at all possible, would you try and see if you can position your mind to think that your regular might actually be divine placement?
