The voice of the Lord says, you are not your past. You are not what everyone says about you nor are you the status quo. You have been chosen, for you didn’t pick him, he picked you.  Be new and different. Don’t conform to this world, for you are a light in a dark place. Don’t lose your salt or flavor. You are set apart. Lift up thy voice and praise him. Worship him and honor him, for he shall do a new thing in you! Glory be the King for he shall live forever and ever.
