Slay Doubt Challenge - Chapter 4 Reflections (pt 2)


Good evening all

Hope you had a splendid day today. 

Today I continue with my reflections from the Slay Doubt challenge based on Slay Doubt book by Detola Amure. 

Your calling feeds into God's agenda... 
Your calling fits into a bigger picture… 
Your calling is bigger than you… 
Your calling is not about you… 
Your calling is about what God wants to achieve on this earth…
Your calling is about declaring God's greatness on the earth…

It made me realise that in my quest to fulfil the assignment, I'd made it all about me. My calling, my talent, my purpose, my time, me, me, me. Whilst I am the vessel, the assignment fits into a purpose that is much higher than me. God's plan.

I am a vessel God has chosen to use to fit into His plan, the plan to make His Name known on the earth, to bring people into His kingdom, bringing glory to Him. It is a privilege to be part of His plan and the minute I think it is about me, an easy to do, is when the assignment becomes burdensome and tedious.

This chapter was like a wake-up call for me. It was a reminder of the capacity and ability God has placed inside me to handle the challenges that will inevitably come on the journey to fulfilling my unique assignment.

It was a wonderful reminder that because the calling is God's; I need not rely on my natural strength alone, but on His supernatural strength, provided by His Holy Spirit.

My action plan is to spend more time with the Holy Spirit by praying consistently and meditating on His word (the Bible) daily.

That's it for today.

Hello and update

Hello and Happy New Year It's 2019 and I realise it's been a long, long while :) since I've posted anything here. A lot has happened in my life, but my heart has been coming back to this blog and the need to start writing again, so write I will. Writing is one of my first loves and I intend to revive this love using this blog :) To that end, I will start by putting up posts on things on my heart, challenges I'm involved in - currently doing a 30 Day Minimalist Challenge, reading As a man thinketh booklet by James Allen for 15 days straight - goals I want to achieve, amongst a few. Anyway, now I've put it out there I will be posting on this blog for 90 days straight. Love BelovedEsther

Happy New Month

Hello,  How are you doing? Can you believe it, we're in the second half of the year, just like that and what an eventful year it's been. It feels like only yesterday when we were happily chanting happy new year and looking forward with expectation.  Forget about what’s happened; don’t keep going over old history. Be alert, be present. I’m about to do something brand-new. It’s bursting out! Don’t you see it? Isaiah 43:18  What a challenging year it's been. From the natural disasters reported at the start of the year, to the current global pandemic, to the current fight for justice for the lives lost at the hands of those in authority.  Faced with these uncertainties, and what we now term the new normal, many don't know how they'll make it through, but I'd like to encourage you to  keep pressing forward despite all the challenges. With less than six months to go, there's no telling what you and I can accomplish in between that time. Don't give up hope, kee...
