Firework

Jun 11, 2013 | Faith

What a great reminder that every person on this planet has talent and potential if only someone provides them with the opportunity and loves and believes in them enough to help them reach it. Jodi is an inspiration to all of us to work hard to accomplish our goals and not settle for “just ok.” This video is definitely worth watching the whole way through.

If we settle in life, we willingly forfeit the purpose God has given us in life. God wired you up to fulfill a mission. He engrained in your DNA a purpose. He filled you with plans and a future full of hope. He breathed life into your lungs with His very breath. No matter how you feel sufficient or insufficient, significant or insignificant, worthy or unworthy, you matter. You matter to God. Let that sink in.

You matter. To God.

The closer you get to God, the better you know Him, the more you’ll believe that. Then you can let it shine in your life. It’s infectious. People will want what you have. So go on.

Show ’em what you’re worth.
