My Portion Mr Major McIntyre

We often unfairly measure the success of one person by another. From a Kingdom of God prospective, portions are different and vary from person to person. You may never drive a Rolls Royce, own a yacht, travel the world, nor have a golden chandelier hanging from the roof of your home; then again you might be privy to these blessings. The wealthiest objects in life may never be associated with your reputation as your ration; then yet again, you might become a multi-millionaire or beyond. In fact, your name my never be announced on the air of television or radio; spiritually, you may never have the largest Church congregation or attend a mega Church, then again, you might become a celebrity star, actor, athlete, or preacher. It's all relative to your portion as intended by God. As a matter of fact, you might have to live on the other side of the railroad tracks, where crime and poverty keep the cops readily in your neighborhood; then again you might live on the side of the tracks where crime is little, and cops are very seldom called; either or not, God decreed your lot in life. Though neighborhoods may divide us by inheritances, God delegates portions based on His compassion and love. Like a loving father looking into the hearts of children, He knows what we can handle. Not everyone is intended to be rich or poor, nor is everyone to have the same portion in life. We all come in different skin tones, shapes and sizes, personalities for a reason, and the Lord has everything to do with it. For this reason, we all need to know our portion in life. So, we must stop trying to be someone else in life and be ourselves. God will reveal to each individual who they are to imitate, if anyone. Knowing our portion as far as talents and skills will shape the individual's future and make them a success in God, while mimicking the abilities of others may provide some securities, it will not fill the void of a person unhappy with self because they haven't discovered who they are. With this understanding, we will conclude from this text that the inheritance for our existence can increase or decrease relative to our faithfulness. Sometimes it's hard to measure how much the blessing that come our way has to do with others, ourselves, or God. Whatever the case, we have to prep as though all three affect our inheritance. So we must respect our portion no matter which direction the wind blows.
