A Daily Reminder 
The Lord has placed special gifts and talents within each of us and has
given every believer the promise that they can accomplish great things
throughout their life. We are to recognize how special we are and know
that in each of us is instilled an unfulfilled destiny that is waiting to
take shape and accomplish that which God Almighty has intended. If you are
feeling discouraged because you think you have nothing special to offer
this world, be encouraged and know that God has great things instilled
within your spirit that has yet to be realized and accomplished. Recognize
that you are special and have many gifts within you that need to get out of
your heart and into this world where you can make a positive impact on humanity.
For I know the thoughts I think towards you, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. Then shall ye call upon me and ye shall go and pray unto me and I will hearken unto you. And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.(Jeremiah 29:11-13)
And the Lord answered me and said, Write the vision and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it, because it will surely come, it will not tarry. (Habakkuk 2:2-3)

Pay it Forward
I’ve been wanting to do this for quite some time and finally took the plunge since I read the “rules” a little better and I have 365 days to “pay” this blessing forward! I’m also thrilled that this is a HANDMADE gift Pay it Forward. Handmade is especially touching with the time and love that is put into each gift. I will also commit to praying specifically for the special readers that join me.
I had recently read the post again at The Fruits of the Spirit and signed up. I know that by giving, I’ve always been especially blessed. I find it much easier to give than to receive.
Here’s how it works:
How does it work?
- First, announce this in a post on my blog!
- Commit to making 3 handmade items and ship to 3 special readers.
- There is NO $ amount–It’s the personal time and love that make the difference!
- The 1st 3 commentators who agree to also “Pay it Forward” will receive a Handmade gift in the mail from me.
- I have 365 days to make/ship my handmade goodie! (Although I promise it will be most likely much sooner!)
- The 3 commentators then post this challenge on their blog and we keep the “Pay it Forward” blessing going and going and going!
Be Blessed!
