Being Blind To Your Gifts

We are not created for our own purpose. A lot of times, we think that we have money because God wants us to have nice things, we have nice homes for us to live comfortably, we have cars so that we may be able to get where we need to go, we have hands so that we can feed, clothe and take care of ourselves, we have voices so that we may speak our minds.

We have the wrong idea about the things that God has given us. Everytime God blesses us, it is unto Him. So that He may be able to get some form of glory from it. Whether your blessing is to encourage someone to continue to go on and to let them know that if you can make it, so can they. Your blessed hands could be so that you can do something manually for someone else. Your voice could be as powerful as it is so that you can become a lawmaker to change discriminatory laws.

You sleeping or holding onto the gifts that God has birthed into you, leaves the world incomplete. It leaves the world without a piece to complete the puzzle. Sometimes we can be blind to the gifts that God has given us. It is your job to explore your talents and abilities to see where they fit in the world. To see if those things God has enabled you to do is for a purpose greater than you!

There is a young autisitc boy who was born blind. With his disibility, the world counted him out. Probably thought that he would be someone that will be a burden to someone else or a person that would constantly draw from someone elses resources. Even with the hand that was dealt to him, he found a way to use the innate gift God had given him to give back to the very people who thought he would need them.

Sometimes in life, we think that we are to gain things without giving some of those things back to others when that is the total misconception of having a gift from God. Search your gift, give your gift and your gift will continue to give back to you. Don't be blinded by your gift.

Here is a gift from the Blind Autistic Gift from God.

My Space Is Limited

Sometimes you have to be careful with whom you allow to share your space. I went on a vacation and thought I would have relaxation time. Unfortunately, the place was filled with things that weren't necessarily my cup of tea.

Being the person I am and having the calling that I have; causes me to be very selective of where I allow myself to go and the things I subject myself to. I have to be extra sensitive to the environments I allow myself to be caught in. Environments can sometimes change your mood and spirit.

Although, I allowed myself to have as much fun possible for my comfort level, I was seen as being prudent and stuck up. I really don't care what others think of me, however I do care what God thinks of me. Sometimes you can go against the majority in order to be at your own comfort level.

If someone does not respect you for that, then exclude them from your space. My space is limited to the things that are going to be uplifting, rewarding, and enhancing. Don't allow things that are not beneficial to you invade your space because it won't allow room for those things that can bring you fulfillment. Make your space limited!

Love ya bunches!
