Devotion: The Treasure Within

However we possess this treasure in vessels of earth....2Cor. 4:7 (AMP)

God will never make you into something you're not.
If He wants to make greatness out of you, its because greatness is in you.
This may sound contrary to what you believe about yourself and what you've experienced around you. A changed mindset will help you see and accept God's purpose for your life irrespective of you circumstance.

No circumstance should be allowed to overshadow what you carry on the inside. When you realise your life is a treasure, you'll envision and plan for a life of impact rather than just make a living. Living for impact will see you employing every power within to make a difference in the world.

Sometimes we argue within ourselves about our dream, wondering if its true or just a pigment of our imagination.
Our own human limits can play down what we can achieve based on our past.

This treasure may be in an earthen vessel that has been beaten and battered by life but in that battered vessel lies an inner potential to go beyond your dream and surprise your own very self. There's no limit to your untapped potential, the further you're able to stretch the farther your talent can go.

You're a treasure of great worth, don't be held back by others' opinion or the apparent lack of resources. Many die without fully maximising their talent because they were busy focusing on what wasn't enough. Regardless of what you have achieved or not, believe that you possess the treasure the world is in search of.
Tap into this it and tell yourself "if other can, why can't I."

Today's Action Plan:

• What steps to your dream have led to failure in the past?

• Make an assessment of the whole situation and strategize a new approach to the situation.

• Approach with faith knowing you have the potential for greatness. You really don't know how far you can go until you try.

Have a great weekend.
