Purpose. We all have one and lately I’ve been feeling like I’ll never identify or accomplish mine.

But God.

I woke this morning and dove into my routine per usual, including my daily prayer walking. I was praying pretty diligently this AM that no matter what happens in my life, that I be used. I pondered with Jesus the treatment of women through the centuries, millennia, and how disappointed He must be with the way His daughters have been hurt by His sons.

I acknowledged my significant shortcomings, and begged that He show me how to minister to, encourage, strengthen, and prompt the women He places in my path, toward His goodness. HIS truth about who they are and how valuable they are. I’m coming out of what feels like a toxic multi-year haze, and prayed He would “use me anyway” to show women their worth. (Yeah, I’m working on the self-esteem thing.)

My Aunt texted mid-prayer, memes stating, “Hello darlin’, be awesome today” and “I think sometimes you forget that you were born to be awesome (this is your reminder)”. My Father loves me like crazy and as I was begging to serve other women like myself, feeling completely disqualified and ill-equipped, He sends me a women I love connecting with, to minister to me. I laughed and told her, “I just told God today was gonna be amazing because You made it, right?”

She says, “I love little miracles. May you notice many today.”

I’ve been looking for a reason to send her “Brand New”, Matthew West’s most recent album at time of this post….and there’s a song on the album called “Miracles” (below, do listen). This was the perfect time to see if she liked the sound…but I started listening again instead…and weeping.

“Let me tell you bout you (yeah you) do you know that you’re amazing? A one in a million masterpiece that’s in the making. You might think, ‘not me’, but every single breath you breathe is saying you are a living, breathing, walking miracle.”

God is SO good. Jesus loves us SO much. He meets us every day, right where we are, with His “mercies new every morning”.

So yeah. It’s going to be an awesome day. My Heavenly Father wouldn’t have it another way. The level of affection He pours into his children, His daughters in this instance, is absolutely breathtaking. Overwhelming. Tear-filled. And so, so good.

We are His miracles, and we are amazing.
