Cape-able

You have greatness woven within your very DNA.

Slowly but surely, God has been healing your wounded parts, and you have been working hard to remember who (and whose) you are.

It's time to kick it up a notch and expand your thinking.

I don't want to make you uncomfortable, but you've been thinking too small.

Take the focus off your problems and weaknesses and look at your life's potential.

It's hard to dream big, I get it. It's scary to get your hopes up only to fail or be disappointed.

So you've been playing it small and feeling unworthy of expanding your thinking and allowing your best self to emerge.

But listen, if not now, when?

What are you waiting for?

There is never a better time than RIGHT NOW to expand into your greatest self.

You were created to be alive at this moment in time with all the gifts and talents God gave you,

You are more than cape-able (see what I did there?) of fulfilling your biggest dreams and your greatest potential.

See what I did there?

I want you to put on your cape. What color is it? What does it say? I bet it's bedazzled and quite sparkly.  

I want to hear all about it.

Now, find the biggest mirror you have and stand in front of it.

Look at you—God's radiant child beaming with beauty.

You've come so far. You've beat the odds.

You have believed in and received God's unconditional love and forgiveness and, in so doing, removed the shackles that bound you for so long.

You are free to be the most expansive, best self possible.

Alright now - shoulders back, head up, arms on your hips. It would help to have a fan so your cape could flutter behind you as you look off into your fantastic future.

You are cape-able of greatness.

You are cape-able to do anything you set your mind to.

You are cape-able of being the hero in your story.

You are cape-able of serving others and helping them find their way.

The world needs heroes more now than ever.

The world - including you and those you love - need you to be all that God created you to be.

Now is the time.

You are worthy to wear that cape and become your very best self.

I want you to imagine the most cinematic superhero music playing as you continue to look in the mirror and envision this cape-able life you are worthy of living.

Anybody else getting goosebumps?

Please give me details of what happens next. Make sure you tell me EVERYTHING!

Ephesians 3: 20-21

 Now to Him who is able to [carry out His purpose and] do superabundantly more than all that we dare ask or think [infinitely beyond our greatest prayers, hopes, or dreams], according to His power that is at work within us,  to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations forever and ever. Amen.

Psalm 37: 4-5

Delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires and petitions of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord; trust in Him also and He will do it.

Joshua 1:9

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous! Do not be terrified or dismayed (intimidated), for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.
