You're a Child of the King. Live Like It.

Sometimes, you have those days. That turn into weeks, that, if you're not careful, turn into months.

Those days, weeks, months, where you just make it. You do just enough to get through the day.

And I don't really wanna live a "just enough" life, do you?

No, I wanna live loving God, loving others. I wanna live acting justly, loving mercy, and walking humbly with my God. I wanna tell the world about the Hope I've found in Jesus.

I don't wanna do just enough to pass.

But sometimes, when life gets going, I find myself doing just that.

But I have to keep reminding myself in the chaos: I'm daughter of the King. So I better live like one.

And I pray this prayer:

          Let my days pass just a little bit slower,

          I've been running so fast I've forgotten who I am.

              -Dirt Road Prayer by Lauren Alaina

Lauren's album came out on Tuesday, and that is definitely my favourite track on the album. I heard it, and I was like, "I really needed that reminder right now."

I don't wanna forget who I am. Daughter of the King. I'm on a mission, and I can't waver just cuz life got crazy.

So, are you forgetting who you are? 

Well, let me remind you.

Ladies. You. Are. A. Princess. A Princess with a very special purpose to her life. Live like it.

Guys. You're a Prince. A Prince that's got a job to do. Live like it.

Take each day and make it last./'Cause you turn around and the future is the past./Here and now is all we have/The beginning and the end mean so little/What matters most is what's in the middle.
