I--Can be Excellent?

I—Can be Excellent?

The young man receiving his wedding boutonniere has no idea the wonderful plan God has for his life. Today, he only knows he is marrying the most wonderful girl in the world. Who’s the lucky girl? Why it is I, the author of this post on excellence.  Ha Ha!

This young man is going to traverse valleys and mountains, defeats and victories. He will experience monumental challenges He will humble himself before God asking for help.

This young man knows that God and only God will make him excellent.
He will sit in the trenches and face the enemy. He will lift his eyes to his only Sustainer—Jesus Christ—and tears will fall. But all the while he will allow the Spirit of God to make him excellent. This will not be easy!

Joseph endured betrayal more than once and God took this teenager and made him a ruler. Joseph kept looking at God. Joseph kept striving for excellence.

For seventeen years David, a teenaged boy, was chased by a mad-man king who wanted to kill him. Before the crown was placed upon David’s head God had made him a man of excellence.

You are the precious son or daughter of the Most High. God has great plans for you. He longs to make you excellent, make you great. He’s calling your name.
 Rise up for I see in you a girl, a boy like the young man, like David, like Joseph. 

                                            You are God’s masterpiece!
                                          Created anew in Christ Jesus
                       So that you can do the good things he planned for you long ago!
                                                         Ephesians 2:10

Know this—I write that you may know God loves you. I write because I know God has chosen you to turn this world upside down! He really has!

Dear Lord,
I give my life to you. Please  make me excellent that I may fulfill your purpose. Thank you!
