"Lebron James wasn't called to be a Boston Celtic, he wasn't called to be a bench rider. He was called to raise the bar in the NBA, like he's doing now. He was called for this moment." -D.L.R
In order for me to write I have to be inspired to do so. Whereas, some people are more gifted or knowledgeable enough to sit down and began to write endlessly without effort. I struggle to put my thoughts on paper and before people. Not because I lack the gift or knowledge, but, I wonder..do people really care to read or hear what I have to say? Let me ask you a question, why do you do what you do? Is it because you're just good at it? Is your answer as simple as, it's just what comes natural to you?
As obvious as my gift of writing is to others, for me that's not the case. I struggle with wanting to make sense of it all. I struggle with living in reality everyday of my life, and how to transfer that to paper. Similar to having a calling that you may struggle to accept, and instead you wrestle with it as if it's a W.F.W. match. Only exception is this opponent, your calling, is not surrendering to you. It's like a nightmare that comes to haunt you in your sleep, or a significant other that you can't get off your mind. Your calling keeps pursuing you. I define a "calling" as your ultimate purpose for being created in the first place. So, what called you hear? Is it a burden because you have unresolved selfishness that has made you stale?
It feels like the walls are closing in most days, and the roof is caving in the next. You know, we create the conditions, environments, and seasons we want to live in by being proactive in preparing or living day to day as if "tomorrow" doesn't exist. "Plowing your field" responsibly helps you create comfortable conditions, environments, and seasons in your future. When you are actively engaged in your calling, you won't be anywhere around anybody outside of purpose. Meaning every move you make, and every hand you shake will be a strategic move that takes you to the next level of where you are meant to go! Am I making sense? ::I'm asking for feedback::
Who exist now that can't leave without getting what you have been created to offer? What doesn't exist now that has been waiting on you to create it? You are the plug that some socket out there need for
POWER! I am trying to get back into the habit of writing and blogging consistently. Most of the time, I am not using my gift as I should be. That's my struggle, don't judge me!
LOL!
For the last year I have grown and evolved as an individual, I
THOUGHT I had learned the lesson of not putting myself in relationships or environments that are not meant for me, but I'm still in school on that one. (My struggle) I have outgrown certain people, habits, and environments that I keep returning to. (My struggle) I am continuing to be true to who I am. (My calling) As you grow older it is vital to your maturity that you be true to who you organically are as a person. I know the pressure society can inflict on us as individuals to conform, however, to be an individual simply means to be divided from others. Your calling is divided from other individuals. No one persons' calling is more important than the other. What's important is that you know what you are created for. When you examine your life's past, present, and future you will discover you were born alone, at the present, you make decision's for yourself, and in the future you will leave here alone. Your individual identity is important as a human. Your personality, personal style, and choice in the type of people that influence you, say a lot about you as an individual.
If I am not being who I am authentically created and called to be than how can I expect to leave my distinguished mark in the earth? I have to fight the daily match between conforming or compromising my belief, personality; the genius of who I am. Who
YOU called to be as an individual, embrace that! Your individuality started in your mother's womb, it was shaped and activated by various value's your family taught you. Growing older we meet the pressure of forsaking our individuality to fit into our societies' ridiculous stereotype's and ideologies. We embrace their ideologies by force when we are too afraid to be our own individual-operating in our calling.
