Jewells of Thought

All week I have been experiencing some lows personally. It is a fact of life that we will have difficulties that accompany the highs and victories of life. I know this all too well having dealt with Bipolar in my family.

It doesn’t take a diagnosis to know when someone is depressed. After a while you learn to see a pattern in individuals and sometimes you can eventually assuage the problem when you have dealt with it head on many times over.

I have always known I have a purpose and I will never allow anyone to say otherwise. Not only is it written in scripture that everyone is wanted and has a purpose from God; I believe this wholeheartedly. When I get stuck though doing something creative gets my juices flowing. Although I should also prioritize talking to God first and asking for guidance.

Using my hands is my purpose. That is also why I have had both carpal tunnel releases done as well. Everything I do is to serve others as much as possible. God gave me abilities to play music and lately I have felt out of place lately not having my place in the choir due to not having a choir. That’s a long conversation. Cross-Stitch was something I excelled at growing up almost everything I made was given as presents. Now making Christmas Cards I like making something unique and special, but also writing a unique message for the card recipient.

The question in today’s devotion was what are you being called to do? There have been times when I avoided listening to God’s call. It’s not a good feeling. Is there something you are being led to do but you keep silencing the voice of God?

Do you think you’re not good enough to do so? If God is calling you to do something it means He has already equipped you to do so. You just need to believe in Him to guide you along the way. Don’t avoid your purpose it could be something that helps someone else out in the process.
