For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. - Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV)
You were created to be unique. Not to be like everyone else. You are you. Fashioned with the exact personality, the exact talents and abilities to fulfill the assignment for your life.
Jeremiah 1:5 states "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations."
This was Jeremiah's assignment, but God did the same thing with you. Before forming you in the womb, He set you apart for a special assignment, appointing you to be the person He created you to be. Whether that be a teacher, a preacher, a prophet, a business owner, an artist or anything else.
Ephesians 2:10 tells us "For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do."
There is no one else like you on this planet. There has never been a person like you. There will never be another person just like you. You are the only you this world will ever see. You are a limited edition. God's masterpiece.
Don't try to be anyone else or compare yourself to others. You are supposed to be your best version of you. To try to be anyone other than you would be a step out of God's will.
You are here on assignment from God. There is something He wants you to do. Some problem He wants you to solve. Something only you can do the way He wants it done.
Maybe you have no clue as to what that assignment is. Perhaps you have an idea but don't know how to execute it. Either way, you have an assignment to complete. You are here for a reason. The only way for you to be truly happy in life is for you to fulfill it.
Don't lose hope though if you don't know what it is. Why not talk to the One who does know? Why not ask God what your assignment is and to lead you in accomplishing it?
He will never give you the full picture, but He will give you the next step. Ask Him today.
