Who are you really called to be? I wrestled with this very question over the past year. I had started to confuse my God-given identity and calling with my worldly identity. I am not the sum of my net worth, or my achievements or my physical attributes, or lack of nice attributes, or the sum of my many flaws for that matter. I am definitely NOT the sum of all my experiences. I am not a victim. Who I am called to be, so much more than all those things.
Yesterday I was reminded to walk in my true identity. God wired me to be a passionate, deep thinking child of his who loves the broken and has a burning desire to see lives restored. I am called to be a voice to those who have been battered and horrifically abused in every way........ to remind them who God really is.
I am called to speak to those who have lost sight of themselves and God as a result of trauma and share with them God's incredible faithfulness.
My life if a living testimony. My story may be filled with years and years of pain at the hands of others, but my story didn't end there. I am an overcomer because of the spirit of the Living and Loving God that fills my heart.
It is by his grace that I have survived and by his grace I will continue on.
The enemy is quick to deceive and he often has tried to convince me to hide behind a mask and pretend that I don't bear the testimony that I do. He lies to me and convinces me to be ashamed of my own story. The truth is, I was called to be a threat to enemy...... to stand up and declare truth and help set that captives free.
