Hi, this is Dorette Schaal with your dailyeword. Did you know that you can overcome fear? Fear can stop you in your tracks. It can produce pain and even paralyze you. (Think of childbirth or public speaking!) Fear has all the same properties as faith, except it is going in the opposite (negative) direction. Turn your fear to faith, and overcome any negative self doubts, and live fear-less, so you can achieve your dreams. This is your time! It’s my time too. I’m doing just that with #50songs50days. Here is your dailyeword.
A few years ago I heard this statement by Oliver Wendell Holmes, “most of us go to our graves with our music still inside us”, and it was a light bulb moment for me. For those of you who know me personally, you can probably know that worshipping God is my passion. I love writing songs, singing and playing for the Lord. I have written so many songs and poems some which have been set to music, and all of the others are either hidden in my heart or hiding in my file cabinet, and many I have unfortunately misplaced. So I am telling you all, and God that I did get the hint….no lightning bolt needed! After writing the Advent devotional this November, God spoke to my heart to do 50songs in 50 days in the New Year. So, that is what I am doing. How about you? What has God asked you to do? Don’t die with your song still inside of you. What is your song? What is your gift, your purpose, your passion? Find your song and sing it! You can confidently write your song, sing your song, play your song, live your song! It is risky, but worth every bit of the risk!
What is your song?
It’s time to sing it
What is your gift?
It’s time to give it
What is your bent?
Its time to share it
Your purpose and passion
God has called you to do
Because what you’ve been given
Is not just for you
