Good morning, world. Things are looking pretty good from the front porch of my farm in Virginia today. It’s the first day of a new week and I’m already armored up and ready to Run after my time with the Living God. In this Life, I have many roles, and each one is rich and beautiful in its own way. My role in each one takes very little effort because it’s my Honor to serve and the Core of it all is Love. But there is One Role…the Common Denominator of all the others…and that Role, isn’t quite as “effortless” as all the others. In that Role, I’m an Ambassador for the Most High God and I have a real Enemy that would love to devour, distract, and destroy all the others. BUT that’s not going to happen on my Watch because I Know my Place in the Kingdom of God and I Know how to Fight the war and WIN. Isn’t that the way you look at your Roles too?

There have been times in my Life when I’ve said “Do you know who you’re dealing with?” OR “Don’t you know who I am?” but I was never referring to my significance in this world…I was referring to my Role in the Kingdom of God. Not everybody makes their way to where I am and sadly, far too many don’t care one way or another…and that’s where I come in. I’m not just your average wife, mother, grandmother, friend, businesswoman, or Christian! I am an Ambassador for the Most High God! I am Royalty. I was Chosen before the foundations of the earth and I was born for such a time as this. No weapon formed against me will ever prosper because I never battle alone and I Know Who to go to for Help. I can do ALL things through Christ who gives me Strength and I have absolutely nothing to fear. So, I will always be Victorious as long as I take my Role seriously and I do my Part to Stay Strong every day.

I’m pretty good at all my roles in this Journey called Life – NOT because I’m better than all the rest – but because I Understand the Importance of the Common Denominator in every area of my Life. He’s the Center of it all. He’s the One to Balance the details. He’s the One who fights the battles. He’s my Protector and my Provider. He’s the One who makes a way when there seems to be no way and He’s the One I Surrender to. So, as long as HE is first in my Life…my Leading Role…everything else will be as close to perfect as it can possibly be on this side of Heaven no matter what. I’m as bold as a lion and as gentle as a lamb and I’m Equipped to walk through fire whenever it’s necessary all because of Him. This is the ONLY way to Balance a Big Life and to find Victory through it all.

How about you?
