Define Identity.....

I am doing a book study called Thin Within and have really struggled this week with fitting it in. Yesterday I realized that I was putting everything else before me. Taking more time to tend to others and not allowing time to tend to me. So I put on a worship song and laid out on the office floor with my face in the carpet and cried out to God. As I got still before Him, it wasn't pictures or words which is pretty much what I always get but instead just a feeling of, I got you. I got up from the floor and posted this status:

"How does He see you? We can talk all day about diet and exercise and getting healthy but true health and beauty start from within oneself. Deep within the heart and soul wherein lies your definition of who you believe you are. No matter what it looks like, have you taken that definition and held it up against who He says you are and how He sees you.

So take out a piece of paper fold it in half then making 2 columns number each side 1-5. Now without thinking twice about it write down the first 5 words that you would use to describe yourself. Now ask the Lord for 5 words He uses to describe you. How do the two list compare/relate to each other. You are more loved and beautiful and uniquely made than you know or perceive. #learntoloveyouexactlythewayyouwerecreatedanddreamptup "


A few days ago while doing the exercise I posted, I asked the Lord for the five ways that He would describe me. Each and everything He said was so key and either demolished misconceptions or aligned more properly other ideas that I had built on my own. There was some "memory lane" walking that happened in that moment and throughout the day as I continued to process. I just wanted to share what he showed me.

"you get what you deserve"... #killingmonsters

There have been many events that have derailed me in my timeline. There have been moments of deep hurt, betrayal, manipulative and destructive 'prophetic words', abuse by spiritual authority and the list goes on...

It has taken me many years of searching and seeking the Lord for healing to get to this place that I am today. A place where I am still sorting through fragmented memories, trying to make sense of my story. Realizing that there are so many "Monsters" attached to the woundings of my heart and that in a way I have nurtured those "Monsters" and consoled them at times, believing that they were the only safe place to run to.

    I love the arts, written, photography, music, all of it! I especially love when I get to share it with others. This journey that the Lord has me on has had highs and lows. No matter the dynamic of where I am, He has always been faithful. I love sharing these stories, so stay tuned. Here I will share my heart stories as the Lord leads.
