Day Fifty-Three.
Verse: "'But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.'"
1 Peter 2:9
You are chosen. You have been chosen by God to do God's will, plan, and purpose for your life.
You might be thinking: Not me Caty. I am a nobody.
But you are not.
In Christ, you are:
You are beautiful. (Psalm 45:11)
You are unique. (Psalm 139:13)
You are loved. (Jeremiah 31:3)
You are special. (Ephesians 2:10)
You are created with a purpose. (Jeremiah 29:11)
You are cared for. (Ephesians 3:17-19)
You are lovely. (Daniel 12:3)
You are precious. ( 1 Corinthians 6:20)
You are strong. (Psalm 18:35)
You are important. (1 Peter 2:9)
You are forgiven. ( Psalm 103:12)
You are protected. (Psalm 121:3)
You are chosen. (John 15:16)
You are mine. (Isaiah 43:1)
In Christ, you are worth so much more than what people think of you or what social media says you are. You are not: what you do for a living. You are: a child of God!
God loves you so much. (John 3:16) God has chosen you for you to build His kingdom using your purpose. I can't tell you what your purpose is because only God can tell you. I can tell you that God has given you gifts and talents you probably already know you have. God didn't give you those gifts and talents by accident. He gave you those for your purpose to build His kingdom.
I know personally, part of my gifts and talents is I can write devotionals. God has given me that talent and gifts of writing to share His word. He also gave me the vision to start my ministry called: "Jesus Saves Ministry." Not in a million years did I ever think I would be writing devotionals, running a ministry, and running podcasts. But once I connected with God when I was 16, God gave me those gifts and talents through Him. Now I am using those gifts and talents to build His kingdom.

Once you let God into your heart: God will give you, your gifts and talents. God will show you how you can use those gifts and talents for His purpose for your life. You become a new person once you let God into your heart. You change, not on the outside, but on the inside. You become God's daughter or son. You become born again in Christ (I will do another devotional on being born again and how to be saved).
Let God into your heart and grab God's hand. God will show you his purpose and plan for your life. All you have to do: is run into His arms. God will show you the way. You just have to relax and trust in God. You also have to be willing to do whatever God asks of you. It might be scary but God will be by your side the whole side. God will love you and show you the way.
You are chosen!
Prayer:
Dear God,
I pray that you come into my heart and show me the way. I pray you show me my gifts and talents. I pray you show me my purpose. Whatever you need me to do Lord, I will go and I will follow you. Just grab my hand and lead the way. I put my faith, hope, and trust in you Lord. So I pray you use me to build your kingdom because in you Lord, I am chosen.
I thank you for all my many blessings and for Your Son.
In Jesus's name, I pray, Amen!

Treading Twilight
Reia Welsh was a student Photomancer who attended Decorous Academy for magical knights, typically wouldn't find herself on either end of the bullying stick, which was pretty impressive considering a multitude of authoritative clubs for the social elites happened to oppress and rule the school with an iron fist. But constantly watching such transgressions from the sidelines proved to go against every moral bone in Reia's body. She was a knight, right? And Knights protected people! And as such, she's going to do something about it-but the consequences she might have to face just may go deeper than the school's very own foundations. With only a few months left before graduation, will she be able to change Decorous for the better? Or will conspiracies, twisted ideologies, dark forces, and mystical beasts intercept any chances she has at reaching her goals? Join Reia on her bizarre knight journey. *** And see, as the redhead cowered at the foot of a locker, they petrified him right there and then in a blast of snow-like powder that came out of one of the bully's hands without the single utterance of a spell all there was a blue instantaneous glow...then the kids from Deck 52 walked off all the while goofily wiggling their bodies. "Hey, why don't you dance with us Peter, c'mon do a little dance." "It's just a petrification spell Peter, don't be down..." "Yeah, dude." But of course, the victim couldn't so much as move his thumbs let alone dance a fool.** ⚠️Caution Mature Content ⚠️⚠️Mature Language⚠️⚠️Mild Drug use⚠️⚠️Graphic/Exaggerated Violence⚠️⚠️OverPoweredCharacters⚠️

The Weaver's Wrath
Millennia have passed since the end of the God Wars. Mankind's heroes of these wars, the powerful Luminescents, have since become the rulers of the lands, relying on their ancestors' deeds to fuel their own ambitions. The Church itself has fractured since the death of their Goddess. Now it has shifted its focus to a new power - the descendents of the men and women who had received her blessing in the past - the Luminescents. However, with the death of the Goddess Selene, their own abilities began to lessen in quality with each successive generation, leaving them grasping desperately at whatever they can; money, lands, power. Sevrath was born in a time far different than that of ages past. Much of the continent was under the rule of the powerful Luminescent rulers. The Gods were dead and gone; the age of man had begun. Only the Desolate Lands lay unconquered and resolute, a relic of the power of Deimos, the God of Death and Destruction. So when he is found near the borders of the Desolate Lands, what does it mean? Is he some spawn of demon, like many of the townsfolk of Carthal believe, or something else altogether? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This will not necessarily be something that is updated often.
