Confession: I am not ordinary!

I had a thought for a post yesterday that I didn’t have time to write and I am glad now that I didn't. I was going to write about being an ordinary person, living an ordinary life, doing ordinary things. Then God in one of my middle-of-the-night-can't-turn-off-my-brain moments He reminded me of something: I'm not ordinary. 

Those of you who know me would agree, but beyond my quirkiness (or weirdness) God calls me peculiar. 1st Peter 2:9 says “But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should show forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light;”.( I learned this in the KJV and I love the wording here. I usually read and study out of a different version, but I love the way the King James reads on certain verses.)

 I'm sure the Queen of England never washes a load of laundry, or has a sink full of dirty dishes, or has to scrub a toilet. I, on the other hand, do. And while there are days that I hate doing all the ordinary things, I am reminded that Elohim, the Creator of the whole universe, has chosen me.

 I am chosen, I am the daughter of the King, I am not ordinary, I am peculiar :)
