“I’m giving you a place where you can be you”

If a stranger came up to you and asked, "who are you?", how would you reply? Would you define yourself by your family role or your profession? Ultimately, are you merely the sum of your life experiences, or is there more to you? When you distill everything to the essence of your being, how would you answer the question, "who did God create you to be?"

Regardless of whether you have an answer to this question, you can find your true self by starting a process of stripping unsolicited, negative thoughts and opinions about yourself that you embraced and internalized.

To uncover your true self, consider asking yourself questions such as: which roles in life feel challenging and prevent you from expressing both the joy and pain of your authentic self? What activities deplete your life, success, and energy?

Additionally, attempt to recognize which individuals are triggering your negative emotions and investigate the reasons behind it. There might be a common factor indicating that God is signaling you haven't embraced your "true self" and are not operating in His grace to perform tasks from a place of love instead of frustration. 

Could it be that you're deceiving yourself and others about your true self? It's time to pause, contemplate, and examine the underlying motivations and the wellspring from which your life emanates. You can seek the guidance of the Holy Spirit to assist you in removing all that is superfluous in life, allowing you to connect directly with the source of your existence and efforts. 

You may be amazed at what you find on a life-enriching journey! The main aim of this journey is to let God provide you with a space where your true self can thrive and be expressed effortlessly and joyfully. The goal is to bloom and prosper. Father is saying: “I’m giving you a place where you can be yourself.” It is a place where it is okay to be different, eccentric or silly. It is okay to be dotty.
