Daily Delight

When passion is blazing within you and you are ignited with purpose that feels larger than anything you’ve ever felt before, the world may tell you that you are crazy.They may laugh at you. They may not take you seriously. They may reject you and what you are pursuing. They may begin to overlook you.Let them.When it isn’t worldly desire, but His desire for your life, you won’t want to prove the world wrong on your own agenda. You’ll want to show the world just how big your God truly is.When you heart is centered on Christ instead of on yourself, you’ll want the world to see the power of God through the works of your hands and the movement of your feet.So run forward. Open your hands wide to receive what God has planned specifically for you.You are chosen. You are special. You are saved.“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 (NIV)Don’t allow the doubters of the world to become your inner voice.Don’t allow rejection to become your expectation.Don’t allow the world to dictate how you press forward in your life.You are a champion. You get to claim victory because your God has already gone before you and been victorious. (1 Corinthians 15:57)Go be His light boldly. The world can’t deny the brightness He shines out from within. 

About the Author

Shelbey Kendall

Shelbey is a 29 year-old, small town Kansas girl relentlessly pursuing the God-given purpose placed within her heart. She is a writer finishing up her first book, an entrepreneur in wellness and a seeker of opportunity to boldly share God’s love and truth. She believes passionately that when women come together in their God given giftings and rise up in community instead of comparing and dividing among each other, His Kingdom is further built upon and His love is better spread among people who desperately need it.

She is married to her biggest supporter, Justin, and together they have 3 young children. She enjoys going for runs with songs of truth blasting in her ears, supporting her local coffee shop by consuming their creations often and decorating her home with bright splashes of color.

Most of all she is incredibly humbled by the opportunity to offer up her brokenness to show the overcoming love and grace of God. She believes her story is one of triumph because of the ability to choose His new mercies every morning.
