Summary
Let’s start this week off with some good news. Listen to this Monday Mini podcast episode for some quick and practical encouragement to kick off your week and ground you in your calling. No matter what this upcoming week brings our way, we can start it off by centering ourselves on the good of others and the glory of God.
Do you ever get caught up in your destiny? Your potential? Wondering how you’ll make a mark or what you’re here for?
What if we told you you didn’t have to worry about that any longer, it’s absolutely 100% real that you’re going to change the world. Today.
1 Peter 2:9 says, You are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.
You change the world when:
- you walk into work
- when you love your kids
- when you greet your neighbors.
You change the world when:
- you post on social media
- when you drive your car
Don’t stress over your positioning, your capacity, your destiny - these are God’s.
Seek His face. Acknowledge His power and His presence in the spaces where you show up.
You are changing the world.
