When do we walk in destiny completely?
Answer: When we BELIEVE God TOTALLY!
~Debra P. Declouet
I have pondered this question before and I believe we all come to this point at some time in our lives. Perhaps, we see a glimpse of what and how our future should be, experience a tugging inside that drives us forward or have wonderful ideas that can only be called Divine. Yet the question remains, how do we walk in our destinies successfully? Events take place daily and at any time, our lives can change. One meeting, moment, or conversation in a day can catapult us from where we are to the place we were destined to be. So, what do we do to prepare? How do we become the person, doing the thing we were destined to do; that thing that will forever change our lives? At what point do we recognize the “greatness” within us is actually a gift that is to be shared and the very thing that will make a place for us in this vast world that we live in?
Discovering our gifts and/or talents and using them to be a blessing in the lives of others is living in a divine state of destiny. If we ever took the time to examine self and find out our truth we wouldn’t continually miss divine appointments and opportunities that could otherwise change our lives. Fear shows up and keeps many of us paralyzed and living in a state of confusion. We desire more, pray for more, hope and wish for more but will never experience “MORE” because we won’t move forward. It takes faith and patience, courage and belief in something greater than we’ve ever known to move out of our comfort zone and allow ourselves to be stretched to fit into our places of destiny.
I recall such a time in my life when all I wanted was to help others. I desired to speak into their lives and help them see for themselves a better place. I longed to open blinded eyes that they might see miracles unfold daily. I hoped to help lame legs find their strength and deaf ears to hear the truth. I wished to help people come out of the broken and dead situations in their lives and walk whole and alive. I wanted to hear mute mouths speak because I’d brought hope to individuals who had endured so much grief that it took all their strength just to whisper a word. I prayed to bring joy into the lives of those around me; but, I had to find it for myself first. I had to become the image of what I professed and believe wholeheartedly this philosophy I’d been given to teach. I have and now I can honestly attest to living a grand life, a life better than I’d ever thought possible.
Everyday I am in awe of the miracles I see and the opportunities afforded me because I’ve discovered my destiny, my place of contribution in this world. Life is what you make it, and I’ve chosen to make mine, glorious. Discover your destiny by coming to know the truth of who you are. Recognize your gifts; acknowledge with boldness your God-given talents. Find out what calls to you from the deepest recesses of your soul. Discover your TRUTH, embrace it and it will set you free.
