I thank God for giving me the courage to be truthful. I feel sorry for those who live their lives cloaked in secrets.
Lately, God has been pulling back the curtain and giving me a glimpse into a couple of situations that caused me to question myself and humanity as a whole.
I would ask Him, "why?" and "what did I do wrong?" and "how did I miss this?"
I guess He finally got tired of me questioning myself and revealed to me that it had nothing to do with me. The so-called obstacles that were placed in my way were not put there to prevent me from getting what I wanted. The "obstacles" were placed in order to protect me. Now that He has made me aware of just how wrong the path was that I was considering, it's like the first time I can actually feel just how deep His love is for me.
It's amazing to know that the "suffering" I thought I experiencing was actually His protection over my life and well-being.
As I posted earlier today on fb: Telling the truth doesn't make me perfect. I will never be perfect. Telling the truth makes me free. Being truthful allows me to live an authentic life. That's just about as good as it can get.
I feel so blessed to have been given the courage to be truthful. There are many who fear the truth to the point where their whole life becomes one big ole lie. I'm not saying I've always been this way but, I know for sure that the truth has always been in my heart and whether I've been guilty of suppressing it initially, at some point, the truth just bursts out of me because I can't live my life authentically and look for that in others if I go around and perpetuate lies.
Sometimes, it's best to stay home and just be with yourself versus going to a church where you can get lost in fellowship and forget about who you really are and what you're really doing in your life.
Sometimes, it's better to be with just YOU and God and no one else where He can see into your heart and guide you to where you can be free. FOR REAL.
