Each morning I share my first coffee of the day with a dose of Joyce Meyer. A sip for my body and a sip for my soul. I watch her teachings online at her website.
Makes me think of how God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things. It's all about being available and having faith. As a child my English teacher told me I was a lost cause. My handwriting was horrible and I was the worst student she's ever had. She barely let me pass the exam. A few years later and I won a national poetry writing contest, worked as a newspaper columnist and published an article in a magazine. Put that in your pipe and smoke it Mrs English Teacher!
The only ones who really can define you is yourself and God. But too often we care about what other people think of us. And if you let people define you, you will limit your life. I don't want to live a limited life! I don't want to end up one day saying "I could have... should have... would have...". So I packed up everything and moved to Hong Kong because I choose my own limits. Thanks to God my life will always be the best it can be. I hope yours will be too.
