For as long as I can remember I haven't liked the person I saw staring back at me when I looked in the mirror. It's been a journey to know myself, to understand me. I haven't gotten to the place where I want to be with that yet but I'm determined to get there. I measured my worth based on family, friends, children. I sought to please those around me in hopes that they would see in me what I hoped they would. I wanted so desperately for them to value me as much as I valued them. No matter how many times I was let down by those I put my hopes in, I continued to do what I knew wasn't working, or what was right.
It has been my relationship with God that has brought real truth and hope in my life. It seems like such a no brainer considering I've been a Christian for years, but it was the idols I didn't realize I had in my life that kept me distracted from the One relationship I needed the most. I am more content now than I've ever been thanks to God's hand in my life.
