 With Queen Elizabeth Passing away recently, I thought I would look at her inspirational Life. A women of unswerving faith, unending service and a dedication to country that did not yield to the cost it required.

In WWII at 14 years old, her and her sister Princess Margaret gave a speech on the radio. She felt to reach out to the children that had been separated from their families. In her speech she said “‘We know, everyone of us, that in the end all will be well; for God will care for us and give us victory and peace. And when peace comes, remember it will be for us, the children of today, to make the world of tomorrow a better and happier place.’ 

No matter your view of the Royal Families role in todays world, she inspired thousands and thousands over her lifetime. You might think , well she was the Queen so She had the opportunity to inspire. 

She inspired within her sphere of influence. Thats the Key. If my sphere of influence is 20 people and I inspire 10 of them then I have made a huge impact on my world. It's not about inspiring the rest of the world, its about making an impact where I am and letting God increase my sphere if he desires. 

THINK: Take a minute.

    • Think of a Historical figure that inspired you.
    • What was it about them that you found inspirational?  

REFLECT: Quotes      

  • It is often the small steps, not the giant leaps, that bring about the most lasting change. – Queen Elizabeth ·       
  • There is always light. If only we're brave enough to see it. If only we're brave enough to be it. -Amanda Gorman ·       
  • You’re braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. -A.A.Milne ·   

ACTIVATE:  

Being inspirational is not something you try to do. You are inspirational because you love well, help well, speak well and are so much like Jesus that others want to be like you. 

Here is your simple challenge. 

  • Love someone that stretches you.
  • help someone that can't return the favour.
  • speak well when there is hardly anything well to say.
  • Just walk like Jesus. 

PRAY / COMMIT: Lord, I ask for your grace to love well today, to put others needs before my own with great joy and to redirect someones day with the kind encouraging words I say. 

  1 Thess 5:11 Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing. (same verse as yesterday on purpose)
