I am a child of the Abba Father and Bride to His Son Yeshua the Messiah. I am loved beyond understanding and have received mercy beyond what I deserve. I am grateful.
We cry out for intimacy. We look for it in so many things. And our hearts yearn for something. We look for identity, crave individuality and yet oneness with something greater than ourselves. Once you are able to look at yourself and truly see who you are in Christ you can: "Define yourself radically as one beloved by God. This is the true self. Every other identity is illusion" Brennan Manning.
If we identify with the illusion. Then we act one way with a certain people group and another with others. We hold a mask up and don't reveal our true self. Our true self IN Christ. Child of God. Friend. Beloved . Forgiven. Grace-filled.
Be careful Beloved. Don't be half hearted. Don't be a hypocrite. Don't say one thing and do another. Put your eyes on your Father... and jump. Into His arms. Listen to His words and do what He asks. His yoke is easy. OH His burden is light. Don't let the weight of the world convince you other wise. Don't let your mask inch it's way back over your beautiful face. BE who you were made to be.
Blessings.
Matthew 11:28-30
