day 01... oct 12, 2009
David's men were skillful in their own right... indeed before David even met them, they already are described as fit and ready for battle... strong, great men... gifted in many ways... yet it dawned on me that the gifts and skills given them were not their passports to being written down in the Bible. in fact, it's far from it... they were David's mighty men, that's why their names would forever be engraved in history.
then it dawned on me... (thank You, Lord for this! it took me forever to realize it on my own!) my gifts and talents could help little in leaving a legacy. what i can do and who i am would not ensure me becoming a history maker. only when i am under the leadership of the right mentor and connected to the right vision will i ever make history!
i can try to be popular and famous, i can vie to make my mark in the world but all my efforts would be in vain because it is not who i am that can make a difference, but WHOSE i am... it is not just my life that can make a change, but what my life IS FOR.
1 Chronicles 12:14 says the LEAST of these men was a match for a HUNDRED...
i want to be like them, a warrior in God's army... even if i were to be the least, for a start...
i know i am destined by God to be a captain of 100, and even more! so the journey of Captain Crowned Eagurl, a captain of one hundred starts today...
you're [His] dee. =)
