1 Timothy 4:12-16
We are young. We are strong. We are talented. We are healthy.
These blessings are great.
We are each our own power with infinite possibilities. We carry so much potential. We can endure much. We can create masterpieces in many different fields. We are similar in functionality and separate in speciality. We are awesome creations of Christ!
In our world there are many who oppose these true statements. They live to tell us that we are all slaves. Some of us are better than others. Some make more than others. Some make less than others. Some are handicapped. Some are active. Some are young. Some are old. Some aren't smart. Some are intelligent. Some are talented. Some have no talent. Some dress well. Some do not dress well at all. Some are beautiful. Some are ugly.
This separation of us, divides us based on our speciality that God has blessed us with. Many tear down others based off of specialities God gave those around them.
How foolish can we be?
God created us as one race. In this race there are many ways to run it. Some run forward. Some run backwards. Some soar. Some cartwheel. Some jump. Some take small steps. Some take big steps. Some roll. In all these different ways we live our lives. As long as it is forward motion towards Christ, who is worthy of saying another "isn't doing it the right way"?
As believers we should all be moving towards Christ by basic principles he has instilled in His Holy Word. Do not divide, but multiply EXPONENTIALLY. We are not in charge of the backgrounds of each other. We are in charge of how we ran our race and encouraged others around us to run their race towards God.
Pray that God allow you to execute His will and run your race towards Him. Encourage others to run their races towards God and use His Word (Bible) as a map and instruction guide.
Multiply the believers and may God increase your blessing and decrease your burden!
