Freedom baby!

All my life ive lived to please people. I've always cared what people thought. Down to the way I talked, carried myself, looked. Every little word I would over anylyse before it came out of my mouth. I was in complete bondage. I was completely controlled by being afraid of people. How gross does that sound. It literally disgusts me. My whole life up until I went away after high school to a program called the movement Los anageles, I was afraid of life and had no idea who I was. I was a girl lost and could not tell you what she wanted to be or do with her life. After making a life altering decision to go away to The Movement (a program for young adults to set their lives aside for one year to serve God and draw closer to him) It has changed my life. I chose to lay all my insecurities and everything that was holding me back. Obviously, I’m not trying to win the approval of people, but of God. If pleasing people were my goal, I would not be Christ’s servant. (Galatians 1:10 NLT) When you truly know that god loves you and has accepted you for everything that you are. You begin to not care what others think. You become free from trying so hard to please others and simply live in his unconditional love! As Joyce Meyer has been one of my greatest inspirations, she has taught me in her teachings about the confidence a woman of god has. In her book "the confident woman" she says, "don't be overly concerned about what other people think of you and your decisions! Most people aren't thinking about you as much as you might imagine that they are anyways!" Celebrate who god has made you you be! There is only one who has the unique skills and traits That make up who you are. Enjoy the fact that god knew what he was doing and rely on the thought that surely god said the same thing about you as he did when he called the world into creation! "it was good"! Draw near to god and allow him to show you who you truly Are! Love you all! Your amazing world changers!
