My daughter is very artistic. So, when she created a sign for my anniversary that had words tied to MOTHER - it was not a huge suprise. I am blessed as she is always drawing something or creating something.
What did suprise me was one of the words she used.... O = Opportunity Taker. I reflected on that. To me, I have always had faith that God will put me in the right place at the right time. I've always kind of had a "leap of faith" attitude. I never fully stopped to think of the message I was sending to my kids. Opportunity Taker. Wow. I am proud that she sees that in me. In life, things will come. I will be over joyed if she approaches what comes her way with a "why not" attitude. If you are too afraid to take a leap - how do you know the net will not appear?
Don't get me wrong. I have failed. Oh, my have I failed (just ask my husband). Yet, now I know. There are voices that say, "what if it doesn't work" or "are you sure" or "you don't have the ability". I shoo those voices away when I can and say, "I trust God will lead me" or "I will learn what I don't know" or "Why not me?"
So the next time something comes along and you hear that voice - that doubt. SHOO it AWAY! You have more talent than you know - you have untapped greatness! God made you as unique as a snowflake.... embrace you!
