Wasted Potential

We all have it.. 

The potential to be/do something greater than who we are or what we are doing right now.

 Let me ask you something, "Who are you and what are you doing?" 

Seriously, what kind of person are you? 

Are you the kind of person that is constantly growing? 

Are you seeking out God in your daily life?

I heard this quote once and I can't even remember who said it but it always stuck with me.

 "God accepts you exactly as you are, but He loves you too much to leave you that way."

It's true.. He loves and accepts you. However, He wants you to become the best possible version of you.  Think about it...

 If you are the best possible version of you, won't your life be more fulfilling?

Hmm.. Something to think about for sure. 

I know for me, personally I have a million dreams and goals that I want to complete. 

These can change from day to day. I want to write a book, or I decide that I want to start a charity. Random, I know.. but, I overwhelm myself with all these things that I want to do and accomplish. 

Yes, my intentions are good.

 But, if I just lean on God and walk with Him daily He will direct my steps.

 I will accomplish HIS will for my life by surrendering. Its hard, but its necessary.

Once you and I choose every day to be the young women that He has called us to be,

 It opens the doors for some amazing opportunities for greatness.

My simple encouragement to you is that you will surrender yourself to God who has such great plans for you. Don't waste your potential. Do not settle for the mundane.
 Commit your plans to your Heavenly Father. 

I promise you will start to feel so much better about your life.

 A life surrendered to God is the most exciting life we can imagine. Start today.
Be who you're called to be.

As always, I am available to pray for you and encourage you.
