"For you see your calling, brethren, that not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called. But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty; and the base things of the world and the things which are despised God has chosen, and the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are, that no flesh should glory in His presence. But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God—and righteousness and sanctification and redemption— that, as it is written, “He who glories, let him glory in the LORD.” ~ 1 Corinthians 1:26-31
The Father has been teaching me about His glory and what that looks like in my life. I learned that I am chosen by God Himself. It is His will for me to know His glory and for the Lord to be glorified in my life. And not only mine but in every Christ followers life. He wants to display His glory in me and through me. I have always known this right, but not in this way. My inadequacies and insecurities tell me His glory is not for me. I am not worthy enough. Other people may be but not me. I am only human right. But what I have been missing is I am a human made in His image by His divine design.
I am so honored to sit at His feet. I have been chosen to display His splendor, the Glory of the Lord.
I am a chosen generation of royalty and I am so honored. This is His love n beauty in me, His beauty for ashes is His glory from being broken to beautiful. That Beauty is His Glory in me, His daughter, that He may be glorified!!!

Scared
Two words. I'm scared. That's where I have been these past few months. Everything was going great. I was drawing close to God and He was drawing near to me but then I stopped cuz I didn't want to go any farther. I got scared. Scared of His presence and of His power. Scared of what others will think and there opinions of God in my life. He wants to take me to places I've never been and love on me like only He can.
And I don't want to be scared of Him anymore.
And I don't want to be scared of Him anymore.
