She told us to imagine that we were seated in a room (you can try it too). In that room were the prime minister, the governor general, the president of the United States and some other influential persons including your favorite musician. She didn't stop there; after a huge pause, she then asked us " How do you think those persons should feel in your company; you know for the privilege to have you in the room?"
The class was silent. Then she asked it the way we had expected in the first place, " How would you feel to be in the room with such persons?" Of course, that elicited more response... Isn't it strange though? We often forget that we are royalty. We often forget that people should feel glad to be in our presence (by no means should we be haughty); people should feel look to us for words of wisdom and comfort. Yet so often we act like commoners, we dress and talk like the world with no regards for our high calling.
I'm guilty of that. Ever so often, I forget. I sometimes choose to disregard the mark God has placed on my life. I do that because HONESTLY, fitting in is easier than standing out. I forget that my value is to be found in God and it is his opinion of me that really matters. How many of you are guilty of the same thing? God wants so much for our lives and it is time that we give Him the opportunity to make the best of us.

But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.(1 Peter 2:9)
