Who’s Writing Your Story?

“The Lord appeared to him from far away. I have loved you with everlasting love; therefore, I have continued my faithfulness to you.

(Jeremiah 31:3 ESV)

“We love because he first loved us.

(1 John 4:19 ESV)

There’s a song called, “My Story, Your Glory” by Matthew West: 

“My story, Your glory.
My pain, Your purpose.
My mess, Your message.
In all things, I know you’re working.
One life, one mission.
One reason why I’m livin’.
All for You, not for me.
My story, Your glory.”

(My Story, Your Glory by Matthew West

Are you writing your story? Or is God writing it? 

There have been times when I wondered that very question. Especially when things are not going well. But then I realize that God has His fingerprints all over me. He has already written my story. Every mistake, every heart ache or hurt. He already knew about it. He wrote it in my book. God planned every aspect of my life before the beginning of time. It’s up to me to live that story.

Have I always lived it? No! And if you admit it, neither have you. News flash! We aren’t perfect. We fail from time to time. We let the devil in to cause chaos in our lives. But here’s a spoiler alert…we win. Read Revelation and see who comes out victorious. It doesn’t matter how many times we fail. What matters is what we do after we fail.

Do you think God stops loving you because you made a mistake or that you failed at something? No! He still loves you. Just repent. Ask God to forgive you and move on. If you feel like you have failed God or that you can’t move on, repent. God still loves you and will forgive you for all mistakes. 

Have a great day, everyone.
