Good Morning Beautiful People…Don’t Miss Your Destiny Moment
Good Morning Beautiful People. I just had to share once again about the children I interviewed for my weekly broadcast Destiny Moments. I can tell you for sure it is always a Destiny Moment for me when I walk in the doors of a school. My heart skipped a few beats as I interviewed these students. They are so thankful for everything. Thankful for God, family, friends, dogs, horses, and food. Thankful for each other, teachers, and the list continued on.
One set of twins I interviewed, the young boy (he told me he was seven years of age) said he was taller than his sister and one minute older. I laughed and inquired of his sister if that was ok and she said, oh yeah, I weigh more. They were so cute and so funny. Oh, the plan ahead for their lives.
They shared with me about their chapel time. The journal they keep and the scriptures they read was a highlight. The worship and learning to hear from God Himself another plus they shared. Oh, the innocence of children.
One young girl was thankful for her father. Her biological dad had passed away from cancer and it was a difficult time in her life. Her mom re-married and now she was thankful for her new blended family and the dad God provided her. She said her new dad stepped right up to the plate to take care of her. Her thankfulness brought tears to my eyes of how much we take for granted.
They all talked very freely about their faith in God. They were confident in knowing Jesus and wished all the listeners were thankful. They were such a blessing to me personally and I’m sure they will be a blessing to the listeners.
After the kids left, I glanced up in the office of the Head of School and I read a sign that caught my attention for a second glance. It read Apologizing…Does not always mean that you are wrong and the other person is right. It just means that you value your relationships more than your ego. I spoke to the Head of the School about the saying and she said it was just amazing to watch as these children used this principle in their lives. We sure can learn from them, can’t we?
I walked away from the school once again thanking the Lord for the opportunity he has given me to interview for the radio. I replayed the interview of thankfulness in my mind all the way home as I prayed for those dear kids. Oh, the innocence of children and their thankful hearts.
Today, find things to be thankful for. Put aside your ego and be thankful for the people he has put in your life. What you may be taking for granted could be gone in an instant. Value the relationships you have above being right and leave the results to God Himself.
As you journey the day remember to reach beyond your own circle of influence and bless another. Whatever today will look like for each of you, I don’t know. Isn’t is good to know the man that planned our lives before the foundations of the earth? (Psalm 139)
I pray today will be the richest blessing. If you don’t know Christ, today would be a good day to join His family. Read the book of John in your Bible and read it again and make a decision to be a follower of Jesus Christ. It will be a decision that will cost you, but it will be the best decision you will ever make. Today, talk to the creator of the universe and don’t miss your Destiny Moment. You are a loved people. Give Him your heart today.
1 Thessalonians 5:18 Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.
Jeremiah 31:3 I have loved you with an everlasting love; and I have drawn you with unfailing kindness.
