The X Factor

I’m sure you’ve heard of the show called, “The X Factor.” The judges study the different contestants and try to figure out who has that indefinable ‘something’ that makes them stand out. You can’t necessarily put your finger on it. It’s not just talent, looks or personality. There’s something about them that gives them an advantage.

In the same way, when God breathed His life into you He put something in you to give you an advantage in life. There is something about you that makes you stand out, something that draws opportunity, something that causes you to overcome obstacles, to accomplish dreams. The bible calls it, “the gracious hand of God.”

This manifests in life as God’s favor. It’s His blessing. You can’t put your finger on it. It’s not just your talent, your education, your hard work. It’s the Creator of the entire universe breathing in your direction. I encourage you today to put your shoulders back and hold your head up high. Call on God to show you His amazing plan for your life and seek His direction in executing it to it’s fullest.
