What if my purpose was like a toilet paper?

All of us use toilet paper, well maybe not all of us all the time but we know what the purpose of toilet paper is. 
I'm sure if you had to choose, you would never choose to be a toilet paper roll.
Sometimes our purpose in life is not something others would admire us for. Sometimes our purpose is not something we want to do or be. 
Forget about yourself. Think about each person you help and make their life easier even with no thought about you. Who sits and reminisce about how great that toilet paper is and how it is changing your life? We just go about doing our business and using the paper all the time. Even shouting others who doesn't put a new one in after they finished it. 
No matter how insignificant you think you are or your purpose is... In the sight of GOD there is no such thing as insignificant. The smallest creation has significance. 
All you and I need to do daily is to be of service..wherever we may find ourselves. 

'If you want to be great in God's Kingdom you must be a servant of all.'

Jesus reminded them that they cannot do that, instead, “whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be your slave.” Matthew 20:26-27

You are not trapped, it's just a droplet.

This is a Woodlouse, here it is in a tiny drop of water, yes a droplet. This droplet has this Woodlouse totally immobilized. It is alive but live as if it is dead, because it might feel trapped. I say might feel because I have no idea what it feels or if it can feel. 
This reminds me of how some of us live our lives. We are surrounded with a droplet of water, and we live as if we are dead. We are completely immobilized. 
It is just a drop of water. It won't last for long. This too shall pass like everything else, it came to pass. 
Start moving, move with GOD. In HIM we live and move and have our being.
Live your life to the full, full of beauty. Today might be your last. 

'I (JESUS) came that they may have life and have it abundantly.' NIV

Growth comes from GOD

Growth comes from GOD. No matter how much you do for your child, you can never make your child grow
Our plants died, but we didn't throw it away. When Spring arrived it started to get green. It had no help from us. 

We do the best for our children... But GOD makes us grow. 

1 Corinthians 3:5-7
Servants through whom you believed, as the Lord assigned to each. I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the growth. So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth.
