Can I tell you a secret?
Sometimes I doubt myself.
Sometimes I doubt what God can do with a girl who falls short a lot, like me.
Sometimes my feelings get messy.
Sometimes I feel misunderstood.
Sometimes I have to go to God a thousand times a day, get out my sketch book, ask Him to remind me who I am ๐โด โ๐พ๐, and write it down- just so I can act like that girl instead of the one my emotions want me to be in any given moment.
Is it time-consuming?
Yes, it can be.
But is it better than allowing those lies of the enemy to freeze me, keep me away from my calling, or consume me?
Absolutely!
You see-
Every time you allow lies about your identity to run loose in your mind, you begin to believe them and then act upon them.
But when you take those captive to Jesusโ
He reminds you of who you areโฆ
The REAL you.
Not your behavior.
Not your past.
Not your messes.
But the God-made you, with the God-given talents and purposes and the best parts of your personality that He placed there. ๐ฆ
Itโs amazing what happens when we spend lots of time with the One who sees the โฌโฐ๐ฎ๐ฏ in us!
All of a sudden, we can feel the very best we have in a long while!
Iโm sharing this personal thing, because Iโm praying for this for someone today. I donโt know who it is that needed to hear this, but ๐ฅโฏ๐๐๐ ๐โฏโฏ๐ ๐๐ฝโฏ โฌโฐ๐ฎ๐ฏ ๐พ๐ ๐ด๐ช๐ฐ! He calls you beautiful! And purposeful! And worthy!
Believe it! โ๏ธ
