Will you be YOU?
<p>The biggest enemy most people will face is themselves - those nagging voices they listen to, whispering: 'You can't do better,' ' 'Can you ever amount to anything?', 'Can't you see person A is doing better than you?'</p><p><br></p><p>Oh my, get your eyes off others and follow God!</p><p>Why God? He is your creator; He has the blueprint you need to live life!</p><p><br></p><p>Let's start from here: comparison first springs forth from a lack of purpose or unclear purpose. Because, if you know what you were designed to do and become, you won't compare your journey with others.</p><p><br></p><p>It's just like a standing fan feeling bad that it can't provide light like a bulb. I mean, you are meant to be provide ventilation . If all standing fan want to shine like bulbs, what will keep the room ventilated?</p><p><br></p><p>And that brings me to say this: if you're not YOU, then who are you going to be? If you're trying to be like someone else, who will be YOU?</p><p><br></p><p>To know who YOU are, you must first know whom YOU belong to. And it's from whom you belong to that you get to know who you are.</p><p><br></p><p>THE SOURCE OF PURPOSE IS IN THE MIND OF THE PRODUCER/CREATOR.</p><p><br></p><p>And the last time I checked, God is the creator of the universe - can you see the reason why I said follow God? He will always keep you on track and instill in you all you need to function at full capacity.</p><p><br></p><p>I came to this realization late last year, and I have never regretted doing so!</p><p><br></p><p>I will end with this: The easiest thing to become in this world is YOU.</p><p>&nbsp;Will you be YOU?</p>
Will you be YOU?
