"Kindle afresh the gift of God which is in you.”
2 Timothy 1:6 NASB

When I was six years old, my father built us a house. Architectural Digest didn’t notice, but my mom sure did. Dad constructed it, board by board, every day after work. My youth didn’t deter him from giving me a job. He tied an empty nail apron around my waist, placed a magnet in my hands, and sent me on daily patrols around the building site, carrying my magnet only inches off the ground.

One look at my tools and you could guess my job. Stray-nail collector.

One look at yours and the same can be said. Brick by brick, life by life, God is creating a kingdom, a “spiritual house” (I Pet. 2:5 CEV). He entrusted you with a key task in the project. Examine your tools and discover it. Your ability unveils your destiny. (Keyword: unveils)

from Cure for the Common Life by Max Lucado



You know twin, when I read this, I thought of you. I thought of how from long ago, I felt that you were a prayer warrior. Long before I even knew you better. When i just knew you. Somehow, I always felt that you "knew" how to pray. That you belonged to the category: the know-how-to-pray-people. I'm serious. I don't think I ever told u this before. But this suddenly came to my mind! - when I read this and when I thought back about all that has happened. I realised oh yah! why didn't I ever say that to you before? - Do you know what I'm talking about?


And of course to many many many people out there who have lost the desires of their hearts to circumstances of reality, (but you know that God has put the gift in you), God is here to make your desires, your abilities fulfil His purposes and He will bring you through the destiny He created for you from the start. You have a part to play in His project.

"For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry." - Habakkuk 2:3
