Caught Up In The In-Between
Did you know shame intertwines with then commands possession of a soul? Shame rips the facts your mind tells you: that you are a loved woman created in the image and likeness of God, – to shreds.
You may manage to get through the day taking care of the children, working, cooking and getting housework done, or whatever your day looks like. If you are living with shame others would be completely surprised to the internal battles that rage within your heart and mind. The subtlety of shame’s presence is that before we realizing what’s happening we are entertaining shame, walking with it, allowing it to have its way with: our dreams, destroying our closest relationships, holding us back from walking in our spiritual gifts, or living, loving and leading like we were born to.
Life in the in-between is when you know in the depths of your soul you are born for greater (not material things, but greater LIFE with love, people and purpose). Shame, though, keeps you bound to believing that the way life has been is the way life will always be. And THAT IS THE BIG LIE OF SHAME. You can, at any time you are ready step out of the in-between and into the reason why you are here – to use all God gives you – your life, gifts and resources – to love God, others and yourself. God is always waiting for you to trust Him. To love Him. To believe He is who He is – the creator of your purposeful life.
My tagline scripture is: “But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him”—
If you are living in the in-between of believing the lies of shame or stepping into your purposeful life, I hope today, right now, you ask God for living water to overwhelm your soul with The Truth so much so that you step across that threshold of shame, hand in hand with Jesus to stand, unashamed in His marvelous light.
Until next time…
Stay encouraged.
Keep the faith. ❤️
You are born to live, love and lead well. (no matter the fables or labels intended to make you forget ! )
