Last night was Halloween and I so enjoyed giving out candy and greeting all my little visitors. It was cute to see all the varied costumes and I tried my best to guess who or what they were dressed up like and compliment them. It was so enjoyable to see the faces light up when you tell them that you liked their costume...and of course they liked getting the chocolate too!
One little girl that came upon my doorstep I guessed was a beautiful hairstylist and when I said that she looked at me with wide-eyes and said, "All night no one knew who I was and you knew right away. This is what I want to be when I grow up. Thank You lady!!" She was genuinely excited that I identified her. I was very surprised by the look on her face and the response. She smiled really big and happily skipped away.
I slowly closed the door and thought about all the times in our life that we feel that no one understands or knows what we are about. But in a moment what we knew we were all along can be validated with one single sentence.
If you are in a place today and you feel no one understands you...well know this...No one needs to. There are phases in all our lives where we walk in a time of misunderstanding or even loneliness. God didn't call us ALL to be Queen Elsa or Anna or even a super hero...and trust me...half the town was dressed like one last night!....but to be what HE made us to be. We are to be our own unique and original creation. God will call you out when the time is right. You were made for such a time as this. Esther 4:14
