"A Walk To Remember" is basically every girl’s favorite
movie! If its not, clearly you have not
seen how adorable Landon Carter is. Even though that movie is a complete
tearjerker at the end, it’s worth the watch every single time.
My favorite part of the movie is when Landon takes Jamie
to the cemetery, (side note: I’ve never seen a guy turn a cemetery into such a
romantic place; Go Landon!) Anyways, he takes her to the cemetery and sets
up her telescope so they can star gaze. While he lays out a blanket, he reaches
into his backpack and shows her a map of the stars and asks her to find him a
specific one. She asked why, and he simply said, “Because I had it named after
you.” HOW ADORABLE!
In Psalms 147:4 it says
“He determines the number of
stars; he gives to all of them their names.”
In the movie Landon named a star after Jamie. But in
reality, God has given every single star a name. Every star is uniquely named
and shaped in God’s image. Just like us! When God looks at us, He sees
perfection. Just like the stars, we are his creation.
Sometimes I wonder what my purpose here on earth is. Am I
here to make people smile and laugh or does God really have this spectacular
plan for my life? I tend to forget that God has placed a calling on my life. I
know I’m not alone. I know some of you can relate. We get caught up in the
busyness of life….like college, work, friends, relationships, and so on, and maybe we
neglect to focus on God and the calling He has placed on our life.
It is not too late to follow the plans that God has for
you. No matter your age, God will use you in this lifetime at his perfect
timing.
For me, God spoke and said, “I have named the stars. I
have named you. And how the stars shine is how you will shine when I use you.”
If that’s not something to be excited about, then I don’t
know what is!! Life is crazy! But if you take this walk God has for you, you
will one day look back and always remember… “Just like He named and created the
stars, He named and created me to do great things for His kingdom.”
Never give up on the plans God has for you. I am sure
they will be spectacular, just like YOU!
