NO RIGHT TO BE MYSELF

"That is why we strive to please you, whether we live in our body or have left it. Because it is necessary that we all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one receives what corresponds to him, according to the good or bad that he has done while he lived in the body. "

(2 Corinthians 5: 9-11 NIV)

Sometimes I wonder, why can not I just be myself? Should I please the world or God? And ... If that world is the man I love? The boss I have? or my group of friends? ... the only truth is ... that I am what I am, because God created me with that indomitable spirit of wanting to conquer the world at his hand; that spirit that not everyone likes, because it bothers them and insistently seems to shake the ground they tread ...

So ... Why not live life without being affected by bad faces, hurtful words or revanchist attitudes? Why not walk without thinking about others, but appropriate the authentic and real that is inside me? Why, if God does not judge me, do I allow others to trample on what He has built with me with so much effort and patience? ...

It is a daily challenge to prevent the enemy, who is no longer secret or having the surprise factor, from embittering me, damaging my dreams and destroying my ideals. It hurts and jams impotence, anger, when I can not achieve it; but it's up to me to let him dominate me, knowing that he has no power or authority over me and that the one who protects me is so strong to defeat him and take him away from my life forever.

There are many ways to break the heart of a woman, not in vain in the word of God, the Lord describes us as a fragile vessel; but how wrong are those who think that being fragile means being weak; what they ignore, is that of the ruins, of the dry, of the despised of the world, God has done wonderful and unimaginable things for any man ... He is and will be my first love forever ... my defeat, my fall, is victory between his arms, I'm sure of that.

Those harsh words of the enemy that want to reaffirm that I have no right to be, are invalid. My happiness is my responsibility. I must decide if I should believe who does not really know me, or who made me the seal of their creation; beautiful inside and out, the most valuable jewel, priceless treasure.

I look out the window tonight and when I look at the immeasurable dark sky, I can feel its presence at my side. The warmth of the moon and several stars together, are sweetly lined forming a cross that reminds me that I'm worth; Jesus decided to give his life for me, like not giving him what I have and what I am, if with his sweetness he makes me melt with love for him. Deeply in love, I can see, that although the work of art has not yet been finished, I am no longer what I was a minute ago and that tomorrow I will wake up being much better than today, thanks to every brushstroke with which He gives color to my world, sometimes pale and gloomy. I am happy and nobody can take away what my soul keeps with so much distrust, a life in abundance and full grace, which is what my God has granted me ...

What more does what others think or say! ... We have the right to be ourselves, to shine, to smile if we feel like it. If they get upset, there they want to choke on the poison that springs from the root of bitterness in their hearts and dry lips ... you ... I ... live to the fullest today, breathe without fear, be brave, go together to the top where we want to go; let's fulfill our dreams ... We can achieve it!

"You will eat in abundance, until you are satisfied, and you will praise the name of the LORD your God, who will do wonders for you. Never again will my people be ashamed! "

(Joel 2:26 NIV)
