Am I the Only One Who Thinks Like This?
I was listening to NPR this morning and they were doing a story about Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor. It was a great piece. You can listen to it here. As I was listening, I kept thinking, man, she really made something of her life. I wish I could have done more with my life. And then it struck me that I was talking to myself like my life was already over and I had missed my chance. The reality is that I can do something great with my life (and I've done a couple pretty good things already). I just have to recognize opportunities and capitalize on them. I don't know why my first instinct is to think that I'm not special enough to do something great. Can anybody relate?

I can so relate! Has to tbe the enemy telling us we can't do anything great. I heard something awesome the other night at group. We were watching a prophecy dvd by Kris Valloton and he said "Every time you demean yourself you defeat the power of the cross". I need to keep telling myself that.
