choosing to be transformed from your old ways and becoming that new you, by seeking God’s words and living it, and by believing God will transform you. Pray as it is stated in Matthew 7:7,
“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.”
And lastly, you can obtain transformation by your vision, so write it down and follow it.
Trust me, when you are sick and tired of being sick and tired and ready to live your life according to God’s plan for you, as well as what you want to be, you will say it is time to be released from what I put myself in and not what I know God had for me.
All of our lives, many of us as women are trying to be who our parents and society wants us to be. Once you become a wife and mother, you then become what you should be according to what it is said a wife and mother should be. However, with all that, we fail to realize we may not have taken into account what God wants us to be.
In order to be happy with your life, you need to have your own identity and love yourself. We sometimes wear a mask hiding that beautiful life as a loving marriage is not the truth. It was time for me to take off the mask. My family was shocked, for they had no idea.
That’s the way I wanted it. Yes, we always had a new car, nice house, new clothes and etc., but it was a life of hell I did not want others to know. I felt embarrassed and a failure to not just myself my parents but also to God.
Most of us women just forget about what we want to do or be in life. We even forget we should seek God for guidance. Some of us don’t even know we can go to God for guidance or that we have our own voice. To know what you want, you must first know who you are. Get to know yourself first by removing the mask.
Remove that mask, and start being the person you were born to be. God did not put us here to be in bondage and do what others choose for us to be or do. Set yourself free, and know God is waiting for you to remove the mask and become that woman He designed for you to be.
Removing the mask may take some fasting, praying, and just seeking God. The only way you are going to be able to do it successfully is to step out on faith and know God has you. He is waiting on you so He can guide you into the awesome woman He designed you to be before you were even born.
When you know whose you are and who you are,
trust me, you will not fail. Find out your heart’s desire and start working on what that is. If you need training, go back to school. Do whatever it will take, so you can become who and what God designed for you and your life.
However, as a wife and mother we will always be the PROVERBS 31 woman. Get to know you, and I promise you, you will love you and realize things you did not know about yourself. It is a good feeling to be able to be you according to God and not what others want you to be.
Make a commitment with yourself today to start loving and learning you. Look in the mirror and tell yourself daily, “Girl, I just love me some you.” Your life will be so much better, and it will be better for those around you too.
II Corinthians 3:17 states “Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom,” so go after your freedom.
God wants you to know that you have to sometimes go through the wilderness in order to see the greatness He has for you. Don’t let your yesteryears stop you from being restored into what God, not man but God, has promised you.
