Great “something to think about”. I am still looking around thinking “she can and he can” but I can’t. I am going to give these verses some time rolling around in my mind. Figuring out what God has for this unemployed mother is not clear right now. Thank you for speaking truth into me today.
I grew up believing that I was God’s one mistake so I lived my life trying to “fix” that mistake. God loved everyone else by default as a parent loves a child. I was illegitimate and had to work for His love. Unfortunately, my pursuit of perfection resulted in the exact opposite. I was single-handedly proving my younger self right.
It took a few decades, but the day came when I finally understood that God loved me. And that I wasn’t a mistake. Just the opposite.
I was His child. His little girl.
I think I cried for three hours straight after the above realization presented itself. But, instead of the usual tears of despair they were tears filled with joy and hope.
God changed me that night. He took what had become a rooted belief. A tenet in my life. The foundation upon which I had built 30 plus years…and He wiped it away. He hit the delete button and it was gone. God showed me my deception and He literally changed my mind. It was if I had had a brain transplant it was that much of a shift in my normal way of thinking and being.

I am a completely new person thanks to God.
