God has a specific purpose for your life. He did not intend for you to go through life miserable, depressed, lonely, sick and defeated. You may be so beaten done by the struggles in our life that you have grown accustomed to bring discourage. Perhaps you have been deceive into accepting a life that is far less than God’s best. May be at one time you had a good image of yourself, but now you see yourself as simply a survivor. The image God wants you to have of yourself has been distorted, the mirrors in which you have seen yourself, reflected in the words, actions or opinions of our parents, your peers or people who have hurt you, have become grossly cracked, delivering a control and distorted image of yourself to depression, poverty or worse. If you are not carful before long you will begin think that the image you see in those cracked mirrors is a true reflection of the way lie is supposed to be. You won’t expect anything better. You won’t expect God’s blessings and victories. You will drift through life haphazardly, accepting whatever comes along, spinning your wheels until you die.
No matter who has denigrated you or how much pain you have experienced in life, no matter how many setbacks you have suffered, you cannot allow yourself to accept that as the way life is supposed to be. No, God has better things in store for you. You must reprogram your mind with God’s Word, change that negative, defeated self-image and start seeing yourself as winning.
Learn to guard your mind, control your thought life and begin to dwell on the good things of God. If you always thing little, believe little and expect little then you will receive little. And if you are always thinking about defeat, failure, how weak you are and about how impossible your circumstance.
No, you must break out of that poverty mentality and change that negative self-image. I encourage him. Don’t let you past determine your destiny or influence your self-image. See yourself the way God sees you. Picture yourself experiencing the wonderful things God has in store for you.
You might be shocked if you really understood how much God wants to bless you. God wants you to accomplish great things in life. He wants you to leave our mark on this world. He is put incredible potential, gifts and talents within you, ready for use as you start seeing yourself as God sees you, stepping out in faith and acting on the drams and the desires that He is placed in your heart.
It is exciting. Is not it? You are beginning to see yourself as God sees you. You are getting rid of that grasshopper mentality. Yes, you may have some big obstacles in your path but your God is much, much bigger. You are a “can do” person. You are developing a well about to attitude, seeing yourself as the champion, God make you to be. Keep going, keep growing. God has much more in store for you.
