We all have greatness invested in us. Each with our own gift set, God calls us to our divine destiny knowing that we can achieve great exploits for the building of His kingdom. A conflict occurs within us, when we look at our backgrounds, our upbringing, our failures and our mistakes and compare this to the champion that God has said we are. The two pictures, one of an individual trying to get through the everyday trials and routines of life and that of a conquering champion, often do not marry! How can we overcome the circumstances we find ourselves in that often shout louder than the whisper that draws us to the place of destiny? We need tools. We need to apply the lessons that the great men and women of old have learnt before us and left the legacy behind to teach us that our past does not define our future. We need to look at their lives and be encouraged that even through adversity we can overcome. This comes by understanding that a champion is made by both their failures and victories and their sorrows and joys. It's a life long journey that God is guiding us on every step of the way. A journey you and I must take to discover the champion within.
