Are you comfortable owning your story? Why or why not?
So don't hide your story. Own it! Tell it! Rejoice in it! Realize that no matter what has happened in your life, your lows, your disappointments and your struggles can be the most compelling parts of your story as God redeems them all. People will rally around you, and you will find love and connection in the process. With God, your wounds can become the source of your greatest strengths.
TAKE ACTION: FOREGIVE AND IT SHALL BE FORGIVEN. Forgiveness of an offense releases "YOU" to move forward. When you do not forgive you remain stuck/planted/rooted in the "moment of the offense" . You are bound and locked in a prison.
Paul shared his story as a servant of Jesus in 2 Corinthians 11:23-33. Do you know someone who needs to hear your story? God knows. Ask Him to show you who that person is.
Be brave enough to believe you were made for more.
If you've never told your story, start with these three statements: "This is who I was. This is what Jesus did for me. This is who I am now." Below share your three statements today!
Key thing to remember… Owning your story is an act of strength.
