BEYOND MEASURE

"OUR DEEPEST IS NOT THAT WE ARE INADEQUATE.

OUR DEEPEST FEAR IS THAT WE ARE POWERFUL BEYOND MEASURE. IT IS OUR LIGHT, NOT OUR DARKNESS, THAT MOST FRIGHTENS US.

WE ASK OURSELVES: WHO AM I TO BE BRILLIANT, GORGEOUS, TALENTED, FABULOUS? ACTUALLY, WHO ARE YOU NOT TO BE?
YOU ARE A CHILD OF GOD. YOUR PLAYING SMALL DOES NOT SERVE THE WORLD.

THERE IS NOTHING ENLIGHTENED ABOUT SHRINKING SO THAT OTHER PEOPLE WON'T FEEL INSECURE AROUND YOU. WE ARE ALL MEANT TO SHINE, AS CHILDREN DO.

WE WERE BORN TO MAKE MANIFEST THE GLORY OF GOD IN US. IT'S NOT JUST SOME OF US. IT'S IN EVERYONE.
AND AS WE LET OUR LIGHT SHINE, WE UNCONSCIOUSLY GIVE OTHER PEOPLE PERMISSION TO DO THE SAME. AS WE ARE LIBERATED FROM OUR OWN FEAR, OUR PRESENCE AUTOMATICALLY LIBERATES OTHERS"

I am living Romans 7 :(

Yes, I am living Romans 7. I knew that I was living Romans 7 in some special ares: doing what I don't want to do and not doing what I wanna do kind of thing. But today it hit me real hard: I saw another area where I do what I don't wanna do. Man, I want change, I want the Almighty Father to change and purify my heart to a heart of gold and silver. Only He can do that and only He can help me to be in tune with myself so that I actually start doing what I want to do!

I am living Romans 7 once again. It does not feel pretty, it is actually nasty and really hurtful. It reveals my fears and pains. With my God I can do all things, so I stand on Pilippians 4:13 in light of all that Roman 7 business!

cherio,

a humbled princess of God
