I will remember it whenever I begin to wonder why I can't just be "ordinary." I wasn't made to be ordinary, so how can I expect an ordinary life. I must always go the extra mile, hang on a little longer, sacrifice a little more and do the things no one around would dare to do. In the end, that's why I achieve more of my life's purpose than ordinary people, and why I'm more fulfilled. The more accepting I become of the life God has created for me, the more grace I receive from Him to fulfil my purpose. Then it stops being a burden and becomes an honour. I'm the one who stands in the gap. What a privilege1 Thanks again for this inspiring piece!
