**What is your greatest dream? **
We all have our own dreams for our lives, families, career, etc. In fact, we don’t just dream big but we also dream of great things in our lives. But the truth is, the things that we dream for ourselves are nothing compared to what the Lord has planned for us.
In the letter of St. Peter, it is said that we are a CHOSEN RACE, and that we are to share the priestly, kingly and prophetic ministry of Jesus. Thus, this privilege makes us set apart. It simply means that all of us have been chosen by God to be great – that we are all destined for greatness.
What are the things that we can do so that we can continue to embrace the greatness that God wants us to have?
A. Recognize the Greatness in us
All of us are born to be great. We all have our exceptional skills
and talents that was given by the Lord. We must recognize and nurture the skills and talents that
we have.
B. Remember that we have a Great God.
It is true that we are great and born to be great but
always remember that we can only be great because our God is great. We can do all these things
not only because of our own capabilities but also because God allows us to. Put Him first in everything that you do.
C. Radiate Greatness to other people.
Share the greatness to others by being a blessing to other
people. Outdo one another in love and generosity.
We are destined for greatness and nothing can take that away from us.
