3 Ways to Get Over Being Perceived

We're supposed to be SEEN. You're the light of the world - that means people are supposed to see things by you. Lights don't work unless people see them. 🌟

"You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden." - Matthew 5:14

Stop suppressing what God put in you. Stop letting yourself be convinced of the enemy's image instead of God's image. You're it. You're the one, not the two.

1️⃣ DO THINGS QUICKLY

No procrastination. Don't talk yourself out of action - especially after submitting it to the Holy Spirit. Just do it. Do it quickly.

2️⃣ GET REALLY GOOD AT WHAT YOU'RE GOOD AT

The better you get, the better it gets, the better your life gets. You're becoming the manifestation of who God made you to be. Obviously things get good when you're becoming His image ✨

3️⃣ STAY PERSISTENT

Persist. Persist. Persist. Persist. Persist.

"Blessed is she who believed, for there will be a fulfillment of those things which were told her from the Lord." - Luke 1:45

Remember: God believes in you, so you believe in you. Not because you believe in your ability. Because HE believes in you. Borrow His confidence in who He made you to be. 🙏

... Read moreMany people struggle with the fear of being judged or not being seen for their true selves. It's essential to remember that you are indeed 'the light of the whole world.' This concept, echoed in the biblical verse, reminds us that each person's unique qualities shine best when fully embraced. Start by acting without delay. Taking immediate steps towards your goals prevents procrastination from holding you back. Submit your plans to prayer, and trust your intuition to guide your actions. Next, focus on what you excel at. By refining your strengths, you not only boost your confidence but also contribute positively to the world around you. Aim for mastery in your pursuits! Finally, persistence is your strongest ally. Life's challenges may test your resolve, but with relentless determination, you can rise above them. God’s unwavering belief in you is a source of empowerment. When you embody this faith, you create a ripple effect, influencing others to recognize their own worth. Embrace your light, and don’t be afraid to shine brightly!
