Pam Fieke Column – 7/29/22



Sometimes, when looking at my baby photos, I exhale and question how I ever survived being born a little over four pounds, as technology wasn’t at all what it is today!! 

However, being blessed with a full head of thick brown hair that had to be cut at the hospital so I could see my mom and dad always made me chuckle!! I was fortunate enough to have good health conditions, which eliminated health issues they would have to contend too.

In today’s world, we live with advanced technology where babies can be placed in the palm of your hand and still survive! But, on the other hand, if we think about it, God was in complete control all along! Jeremiah 1:5  Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you. Each of us was etched into being planned for in advance before conception. We were etched into whom we all are today! We are of God’s design brought into life for his plan. We all have been born for a purpose!

If you just sit and think about people you know within arms reach who have incredible talent, it’s from God, and no other person has instilled that gift in that person but God himself! So God is paving the way for you while you learn other skills to help you master the plan he has in mind for you!

The more you reach out in life, you will discover gifts you never thought you had! Therefore, life is the most precious gift that can ever be given to another person and should be thought of as a non-returnable, honored gift from God himself! Therefore, jealousy is not the answer. Instead, celebrating the accomplishments of others recognizes the gifts God has given to us and is happy for those who use them to the fullest!
