You Were Made to Countনমুনা

We were created to be together. But we were also created to be separate.

To make a difference, we must each be separate from one another. When we embrace our uniqueness and answer the calling as the person God created us to be, we can make a mark on this world.

Today’s invitation: Take a moment before you plunge back into the world to separate yourself. You do not have to please anybody. You don't have to placate anybody. You don't have to carry the burden of anxiety of any other person. And at the same time, you are called to connect deeply, to notice, to care, to love, to serve, to try to help.

Remember, this is not the separateness of apathy or lack of love. This is the separateness that allows me to connect with God so that I can be truly helpful to others. Take a few moments, be separate, and then enter with freedom, love, and joy into your identity and mission.
