The simplest and easiest way to be in life is the truth of who we are. At any given moment we have a choice. We chose whether we want to be of ourselves or someone else. It is so subtle of a decision sometimes that it is not until we find ourselves exhausted and frustrated, blaming others for how we feel, and wanting to shut down and escape that we notice we have decided to go against ourselves. When we expend energy being something other than our own truth it takes more out of us because we are not going with the flow of who we are. It took me a long time to understand this. I spent a lot of my life trying to be who I thought other people wanted me to be. I was sure that if I just did the right thing and behaved in the expected manner that I would win the approval I so craved and I wouldn’t get hurt again. That isn’t what happened and I almost killed myself in the process. Today my challenge is owning the truth of who I am in the moment and responding from that place. It is not always easy because it is less familiar but I don’t find myself as frustrated, blaming others, or wanting to shut down and escape.
Be of Truth!
on December 6, 2015My prayer for us is a willingness to acknowledge our own truth of the moment and ask God for the courage to be from that place today.
Are you wiling to try out the power of being in your own truth of the moment and sharing that gift with others today? Share in the comments.
