“Stay true to yourself. And love to be loved.”
Recently, a letter written to me concluded with these words.
What a brilliant way to end a letter.
Staying true to myself means acknowledging the truth inside of me. The law of God is written on my heart and He stirs up the love inside of me. To flee from what He has placed and written on my heart would be running away from my origin, identity, and purpose.
Love to be loved. Ah isn’t that sweet. That is why I am here… to be loved by Love. This is what my time at IHOP is. A time to rest in an abandoned posture at His table and feel His love. How fortunate I am to have this opportunity. I realize daily the incredible privilege I have in being here. Because God has put certain desires in my heart and I have taken this time to clear my mind and my heart of any distractions I get to just be with Him and discover how much He loves me. We prayed out verses from Ephesians today… “Being rooted and grounded in His love.” What a dynamic relationship I have a chance to be a part of… all of us do.
Be blessed.
