“Jesus answered, ‘I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.'” John 14:6
Probably the first correction a ballet dancer will ever receive in her early training years is…. “Pointe your toes.” And the funny thing is, that correction will continue to be given over and over and over throughout a dancer’s career. It can’t be said enough… “pointe your toes.”
I have a “pointe” for you that I don’t think can be said enough this Christmas season. I don’t think you could hear it enough. I don’t thing I could say it enough. And I don’t think your heart has heard it enough…
God has a special plan for your life.
I know you’ve heard it a zillion times. I know I’ve written it to you a zillion times. I know you may have skimmed over it because you have already heard it a zillion times. But I want you to take it in….really take it in…
God has a special plan for your life. He designed you for a purpose. He made you…unique from anyone else…and He loves you more than you could possibly imagine. The way to know that plan? The way to discover who He wants you to be?
He is the way. He is the way, the truth, and the life. Eternally, yes! That would have been enough of a gift! But on earth too…He wants to lead you through this dance of life.
I used to hear “God has a special plan for your life”…and I thought that was just so cool. I wanted to discover it because it sounded exciting and adventurous. Of course, it is…but what’s sweeter is that I have found that discovering God’s special plan for our lives is really more about journeying through life with Jesus…dependent on Him for direction, wisdom, and love…it’s intimately knowing Jesus and walking with Him…
and there’s no greater thing.
So today, I want to remind you to pointe your toes if your dancing. :) But more importantly, I just want to look straight into your eyes if I could, and tell you over and over and over…
God has a special plan for your life.
Prayer: “Lord, help me believe that You have a special plan for my life. Help me discover the sweet of joy of walking intimately with You.”
