Masks

Do you ever feel like you are wearing several different masks? You wear one for this person, another for that person, ect?? You try to be who they want you to be, always changing to fit the mold they place you in. It can really wear you down, totally suck the life out of you. Is this what God wants for your life? I truly do not think so. God loves you, just as you are. Imperfections, and all. He created you, you belong to Him. My friends, it is time to remove the masks, strip clean, be real. Be the unique person you were born to be, there is only one you in this entire world. Celebrate your uniqueness!!

And it's certainly not like we're fooling God. He knows exactly who we are - and loves us in spite of it!

Amen, my friend. God loves us unconditionally. There is therefore no condemnation to those who love the Lord. :) Love you, Dear. Hugs

Also after a time, you begin to suffocate wearing a mask instead of being your true self.

It's good to be aware of when we are wearing a mask and take care to remove it. Sometimes it's easier said than done...
