Being Who You Were Meant to Be
“BE WHO GOD MEANT YOU TO BE & YOU WILL SET THE WORLD ON FIRE!” How can we best learn how?
I remember my husband giving me the Five Love Languages, and my first spiritual direction giving me Prayer and Temperament.
Advising the art of embracing myself & others. Well, friends, it’s been LIFE-CHANGING! For marriage, self-awareness, parenting, work, prayer life and ALL relationships!
Helping identify repetitive sins, blue flames, and tap into our “feminine genius!” (ps. more on that check out my featured post Managing Your Fertility!)
Helping understand Humility. “Humility is truth, or the recognition of gifts as gifts, faults as faults.” Fulton Sheen
Helping identify our unique God-given gifts to be used for His kingdom!
For a #FunFridayIntro let’s do it.
Say:
“Grant Lord, that I may know myself that I may know Thee.” Saint Augustine
“Self-knowledge is so important that, even if you were raised up to the heavens, I should like you never to relax your cultivation of it; so long as we are on this earth, nothing matters more to us than humility.” St. Teresa of Avila
“Be who you are and be that well.” St. Francis de Sales
