I used to be scared of being fully ME. That if I showed my Jesus side too much, I’d scare people off. I guess that makes me a people pleaser? As I’ve gotten older, gone through some really hard things, and embraced who I am more fully, I’ve stopped worrying about how I will be taken and instead stepped boldly into ME. Does that mean I’m not always accepted by everyone? Probably. But you know what else I’ve realized? I’ve found my people. I’ve found them easier and in number. The more I embrace who I am and what I represent, I’ve realized I have started to attract people who think similarly. So for years I was stuck in a mindset that was afraid to scare anyone away who thought differently, but the reality was that I wasn’t attracting the people who thought the same. Nothing good comes from being lukewarm. God created you to be YOU. With purpose, for a purpose. Strengths, weaknesses, high points and mistakes, God uses all of it. Don’t make yourself smaller, rather stand proudly in your skin. You woke up with breath in your lungs today. What are you going to do with it? How will people see God in you?
