You are a Chosen Generation


May be it is the drink I have just had (Fanta Passion) or maybe it is the voices in my head (again), but out of the blues, I am happy. The kind that makes me want to run out on a rainy day and jump and yell from the very top of my lungs and say, “YES!” Then proceed to roll on the mud! The kind that I want run on the other side of the office and shake anyone’s hand and say, “Congratulations! You have made it!” hahahaha… Or maybe get into a poorly lit music house and dance like no one is watching! I want to let my hair down (preferably if its in braids) and shake what mummy gave me.
For two seconds, I want to grab the girl I see when standing in front of the mirror and just hug her. I am not sure why, but out of the blues I feel so in love. The kind you get when you learn you love interest likes the same things you do, like drawing, singing, traveling and CARTOON. (I mean of course, who does not like cartoon?)
Maybe, this is the first symptom of stress… Maybe this is how bipolar is triggered? When you refuse to face your realities and your mind starts painting images of things you’d like to see, hahahaha. Or maybe, just maybe… that’s what Elisha saw when he was sent by Elijah to look at the sky. May be this is the ‘cloud the size of palm’. The sign of immense rain after three years of drought… The impetus of beautiful days aheads. Maybe this is what self value and self love looks like when it makes a debut. When you stop looking for a super hero to come and save you. When you look into your own eyes and realize that the hero lies in you.
“Hey Linet, you and I haven’t figured it out yet. But it shall be well. In the words of Isaiah 43: 19 See, God is ALREADY  doing a NEW thing. It IS already happening. Do you not perceive it?  He is making a way in the wilderness. He is structuring streams on wastelands. You my girl are a winner. You are a CHOSEN person. A royal priesthood. A holy nation, you ARE God’s OWN possession, a remnant saved to proclaim the virtues of Him who called you out of darkenss into His marvelous light (1st Peter 2:9). I love you and, you will be fine.”
