A Clue to My Purpose ~Carla Pollard

​Take a close look at the strange oppositions you’ve faced. They could reveal clues to your purpose. I was devastated the day a neighborhood boy threw mud in my face. I couldn’t understand why. I was playing hopscotch on the sidewalk in front of my home when he approached me with his disabled cousin. She had a prosthetic leg, but I encouraged her to play with me. “You don’t have to be perfect,” I told her, “just do your best.” I could tell she liked that idea and really wanted to try. Then the mud hit me covering my right eye, entering my nose and mouth. Come to find out, they planned to hit me with mud before they ever spoke to me. I was 5 years old. Now I know why. Satan was attacking the gifting God gave me. I was an encourager at 5 and I am an encourager today. Just like Joseph met opposition from his brothers, you will face opposition whenever your purpose is revealed. Don’t stop when it comes. That’s the time to press through the opposition and step up to the challenge. Be true to that gifting God has placed in you.
