When I stepped into what God was calling me to do there was so much fear. Who would want to hear what God was sharing with me? There was also the internal battle of not feeling worthy to use my voice. It was then God began to show me, me from the inside out! I began to ask myself questions. What is your wound? What is that thing that hurts so deep on the inside that no one else can see it? It is the thing that causes you so much pain that you won’t release it even to God. What is it that you are ultimately afraid of? That your choices won’t be right. You could possibly make mistakes. That giving all of yourself to God requires you to give up everything that was considered your normal.
See there was a time when I sought internal validation from others! I had a relationship with abandonment due to a variety of circumstances in my life. 1 John 4:18 reads, “There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made in perfect love.” The revelation was I always searched for the Love of God. The complete acceptance of my identity! However, it was my identity in Christ and not man. The beauty of self-acceptance for all my flaws good and bad!
What is your wound(fear)? And are you willing to release it today?
