the puzzle written on us
who said
who said you’d always feel like showing up? who said becoming would be easy that life would bring you all the right things at the time you appointed who said everyone needs to like you? who said good job meant perfection by a standard that wasn’t even yours in the first place I do love my feelings, honestly I became aware of them in 2018 while in therapy but it’s one thing to feel them and another to let those trips down memory lane cloud your current reality to let them tell you you’re forever a victim when you’re no longer one overcomer should be more fitting really we are a product of all the things we've experienced a thousand-piece puzzle to see which one leads to the next each piece creating the full picture how nice it is to get that clarity! like a sneak peek behind the red curtains at what makes you tick but who said the things written on us have to define us? who said the things you’ve experienced have to be what define you?
Heart Call:
Sometimes we complain about the very situations and blessings we once prayed for — and that’s completely human. But what if the same self-awareness you’ve gained is the proof that He’s been working all along. Your story has already been redeemed by Jesus-Christ.
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose. — Romans 8:28
Where in your life have you mistaken God’s process for punishment?
You are not defined by what you’ve been through or what's written on you. How can you reframe what you see now to recognize that God’s hand is greater still?
