Our very best self. 07/27/2008

  "Do not ask yourself what the world needs; ask yourself what makes you come alive. And then go and do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive".

Someone gave me this quotation recently.  No idea who originally said it, but it is quite a statement!  I see so many people who have some idea of the kind of person they most admire and set out to become just like them.  Nothing wrong in copying goodness, of course.  But at the day of judgement God won't be asking me why I didn't become a world famous, ground-breaking entimologist (whatever that is) but he will ask me why I didn't become a better me with my own finely honed skills.  I am to work hard to become the best I can be with the skills and personality He gave me at birth. 

Sometimes we become attached to mourning what we can't be.  Better to rejoice in what we can be.  And then get out there and be the very best we can be.  God sees that person already.  This is the person He watched grow in my mother's womb all these years ago.  Now He really wants to see me (us) flourish and become whole.

Quite a thought!
