Be Extraordinary

"I can't believe that God put us on this earth to be ordinary." Lou Holtz

 Today I want you to start living the life that God has you to live. I want you to start seeing yourself the way that God sees you. But to do these things, it is going to take a step of faith. It is going to take confidence, strength, and direction that only God can provide. But see, you first have to learn to be, not ordinary, but extraordinary.
 Now, I think that so many times, we get stuck missing out on what God has for us, we don't live the life that He has in store for us, and we don't see ourselves as the person that He sees us as, all because we are living ordinary lives, and we are seeing ourselves as ordinary people!
 See, the problem here is that, when we have this idea that we are ordinary, we are missing out on whatever it is that God has in store for us. See, if you do not believe in the person that God has created you to be in your daily life, then the path that He has in store is not going to be made clear to you, but rather, you are going to be stuck in this cloud of ordinary that you have yourself in, working your ordinary job, being your ordinary self, living in your ordinary home. We are stuck here because this is all that we are allowing ourselves to see, but listen; if you would step out in faith today, and look at your life as God looks at it, and look at yourself in the same way, you, my friend are going to see your life change for the better.
 But how is it that God sees us? And how can we gain that perspective? Well my friend, God would never see you as ordinary, that word isn't even in His vocabulary, but instead, He sees you as extraordinary. He sees you as this beautiful creation that He has made you to be. He has created you and shaped you to live an extraordinary life! One full of miracles and blessings that He wants to perform for you! But see, you have to gain this perspective, all by trusting in who God has made you to be and in the life that He has created you to live, before He is able to do any of that, and once you do, then you are going to see these things come to pass in your life. So step out today, and be extraordinary.
