When you gave your life to Christ, He put something on you that causes you to stand out, to overcome obstacles, to accomplish dreams. It’s a divine enablement, a favor that propels you into your destiny. It’s simply called "the blessing."
God has already blessed you. People can try to stop you, limit you, discredit you. Don’t pay it any attention. God has already blessed you. He’s already marked you, anointed you, empowered you, destined you to fulfill your assignment.
The problem with being in the past or being in the future is you will miss the present. David said, “This is the day the Lord has made.” Today is a gift from God. Are you fully engaged, making the most of each moment?
God accepts and approves you right where you are: faults, mistakes, shortcomings, and all. He knows you’re on a journey. He’s changing you little by little. He accepts you. Now, you have to accept yourself.
