Becoming
Me: Hey God. God: Hello..... Me: I'm falling apart. Can you put me back together? God: I would rather not. Me: Why? God: Because you aren't a puzzle. Me: What about all of the pieces of my life that are falling down onto the ground? God: Let them stay there for a while. They fell off for a reason. Take some time and decide if you need any of those pieces back. Me: You don't understand! I'm breaking down! God: No - you don't understand. You are breaking through. What you are feeling are just growing pains. You are shedding the things and the people in your life that are holding you back. You aren't falling apart. You are falling into place. Relax. Take some deep breaths and allow those things you don't need anymore to fall off of you. Quit holding onto the pieces that don't fit you anymore. Let them fall off. Let them go. Me: Once I start doing that, what will be left of me? God: Only the very best pieces of you. Me: I'm scared of changing. God: I keep telling you - YOU AREN'T CHANGING!! YOU ARE BECOMING! Me: Becoming who? God: Becoming who I created you to be! A person of light and love and charity and hope and courage and joy and mercy and grace and compassion. I made you for more than the shallow pieces you have decided to adorn yourself with that you cling to with such greed and fear. Let those things fall off of you. I love you! Don't change! ... Become! Become! Become who I made you to be. I'm going to keep telling you this until you remember it. Me: There goes another piece. God: Yep. Let it be. Me: So ... I'm not broken? God: Of course Not! - but you are breaking like the dawn. It's a new day. Become!!! ~Author Unknown

Truth + Grace over Time = Growth
What God is teaching me today...
My past doesn’t define my future. Through his Grace and Strength I can free myself from the lies. i.e habits, personality traits (timidness)
For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline. 2 Tim. 1:7

note to self
not everyone is going to remember the good grades I got, how amazing I performed at the things I believe I’m good at, or how many likes or favorites or comments I got on my statuses and pictures many years from now.
they’ll remember the smiles, laughter, comfort, cries, and sorrows I shared with them. they’ll remember the times I went out of my way to help them with something very little or very big. they’ll remember the times I chose to stick by their side even if they were being a pain in my butt or when no one even noticed them.
that’s what’s important. showing up, not showing off. be remembered by demonstrating Christ’s love.
...these have come so that the proven genuineness of your faith - of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire - may result in praise, glory and honor...
1 Peter 1:7
God is within her, she will not fail; God will help her at break of day.
Psalm 46:5
