What's on my mind? Our strength and weaknesses. During a discussion one day, we focused on what separates the elite or "very good", from settling for just being good. Seriously, have you ever thought about that? What can we do to become our best selves? I have for so long wondered what or how it is that we can find our destiny! Do you suddenly wake up and realize, this is what I am supposed to do and I am going to spend the rest of my life doing this exact same thing?
Our discussion about what separates the elite from those who settle for just being, 'good enough', is mainly that that the elite are those who are aware of their weaknesses and challenge themselves to find strength in them. Along with that thought, I have come to realize that it can be difficult for us to relate to people's strengths, but more often than not, we can especially relate to each other's weaknesses. After a conversation, about our character's from 2nd Peter 2-1l, I've come to realize, while still learning, that in order to find one's destiny and to really be effective not only in ourselves, but also when it comes to sharing the gospel, is waking up both individually and collectively to each other's weaknesses and start their in challenging ourselves to find strength in them by building up that weak side of our character. I encourage you to read that passage from 2nd Peter and to ask yourself what your weakness is, but not forget about our strengths either, character is destiny! It is never too late to ask Jesus, what He desires to teach us about ourselves.
