The world loves a victim. What is more sympathy garnering than someone who is has something truly unjust happen to them? We've all encountered it. Being blamed for something that was not your fault; people who are victims of violent crime; losing a job or a house; domestic violence; rape; divorce; or even the circumstances of your birth.... the list goes on. Sometimes these things are the direct result of our own actions, and sometimes they are not. But what we need to understand is that these things do not define us. They are things that happened to us, but they do not have to become who we are.
Our identity is found in Jesus. We are not here by accident. Our very existence was planned long before the world was created.
Psalm 139:13 says
For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
Does that sound like an accident to you. Knitting takes planning. First you have to decide what you're going to make. Then you have to get the tools - two knitting needles... that would be both of your parents. Then the creation process begins. Carefully, intentionally, one stitch at a time until your project is complete. We begin as two cells. Those cells multiply one by one, growing together - knitting into the creation that is uniquely you. There has never been another you, and there never will be.
This does not sound like an accident to me. This is creation. You are a creation, make after God's own image. You are a precious and intentional being, put here for a purpose that ONLY you can fulfill. Do you know what your purpose is? Give it a little thought. Or better yet, ask God what that purpose is.
Until next time:
Peace to you and yours,
