You Are Special

Sometimes we all need a little reminder of our worth and purpose in life.
You are pretty special. Did you know that? God, has a purpose for your life. Every step that you've taken, every mistake and everything that you've been through, is for a reason. It all has a purpose. It is your testimony and you can use it to help others.

Often in life, we have things that happen and constantly think about the 'what if's'. What if I had done this?, what if I had been there?, what if I had said this?, what if it had been me? Those what ifs can haunt you into oblivion. But they are worthless. I honestly believe that everything happens for a reason and that those things that we prayed for and never got, are just blessings in disguise. It's God's way of saying "Hey, I know you really want this, but I've got something so much better in mind. I know that the waiting hurts now, but trust me, it will be worth it.". Put those 'What ifs?' out of your head and Trust God. Don't beat yourself up over the things that you can't change.

You may look at other peoples lives and see that they have everything you've ever wanted and wonder what you're doing wrong. The answer is that you are doing nothing wrong. We all have different timelines in life. God's timing. And maybe your life story is so special that it is taking God more time to work on it than it did on others. Don't doubt your self worth. Don't doubt where you are. Everybody has to start somewhere.
Don't give up chasing your dreams because you are scared. Don't choose a path because it is comfortable. Age is just a number, and it is never too late to start right where you are. You deserve to chase your dreams and you deserve to be happy. Take a chance. Because in the big aspect of things, what do you have to lose?

Don't doubt your purpose and don't doubt the greatness that is within you.
