It's the 3rd week of November and us NaNoWriMers are (hopefully) writing down a good stash of words. But as you work hard on a project, there comes a time when your spirits start to lag.
There is a verse--Philippians 4: 13-- that is like pure motivational, encouraging medicine. I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. So true, and such a blessing!
Now just think...God can use us in ways one might not even imagine! For some, it may be writing. Or maybe it's music, cooking, computer programming, or neurosurgery. But simply because God gives us a gift doesn't mean it's always going to come naturally or be easy. Actually, I think that when God gives us a gift it's maybe more like he's giving us the patience to work on that talent. There are moments when you're tired, or you make mistakes, or you're just bored of *fill in the blank*.
And yet, I can do all things through Christ. He is the one who we must write/sing/cook/program/doctor for. He is the one who we should wish to glorify in all that we do. He is the one who helps us do what we can, and will help us in the future.
So if you are writing this November, (or cooking, playing music, programming, or learning medicine, etc)... Do it for the Lord.
I can do all things....THROUGH CHRIST.
Have a lovely day!
