It’s in Christ that we find out who we are and what we are living for. Long before we first heard of Christ and got our hopes up, he had his eye on us, had designs on us for glorious living, part of the overall purpose he is working out in everything and everyone.
I USED TO THINK I KNEW WHAT I WAS DOING BECAUSE I PLAYED "FOLLOW THE LEADER". NOT KNOWING I WASN'T BEING MYSELF. I FOUND MYSELF MISERABLE BECAUSE IT SEEMED LIKE NO MATTER WHAT I DID, I ALWAYS QUESTIONED "WHAT AM I DOING WRONG"? I WAS TRYING TO KEEP UP WITH EVERYONE ELSE INSTEAD OF KEEPING UP WITH MYSELF. I WAS MIMICKING THE ACTIONS OF THOSE WHO WERE SUCCESSFUL AROUND ME THINKING IT WAS WHAT I WAS SUPPOSED TO DO. I SAY THIS BECAUSE IF YOU DO NOT BE YOURSELF YOU WILL FIND YOURSELF IN THE IDENTITY OF SOMEONE ELSE AND DON'T REALIZE IT. ITS OK TO TAKE NOTES AND GO WITH SOME IDEAS BUT DON'T TRY TO BECOME A CARBON COPY OF SOMEONE ELSE. YOU DON'T KNOW HOW THEY GOT THERE OR WHEN OR HOW LONG IT TOOK. MAYBE THEY HAD THE SAME PROBLEM TRYING TO IDENTIFY THEMSELVES TROUGH SOMEONE ELSE. ITS EASY TO GET CAUGHT UP WHEN YOU ARE SEARCHING FOR PURPOSE. DON'T LET THAT BE YOU.
TIP: BE THE BEST YOU
