~Greatness Within~

Your greatness allows you to fly high like the eagle... But fear and a lack of knowledge clips our wings and cause us to stay ground bound!

We have a fear of our own greatness,  a fear of others thinking that we are bragging on ourselves. But you must acknowledge who you are. And, walk the path God has preordained for you. We limit ourselves by our thought process.

I believe in all of us is a greatness that has yet to be discovered. I also believe that our first reaction is to doubt our greatness once it is discovered. So many of us, myself included, have played small for so long when it comes to our abilities and gifts.

We have shun our unique gifts and diminished our capacities just to what I call "fit in" -- and in the process have unconsciously disowned many aspects of our inborn, natural greatness.

I believe our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that scares us the most.

Is this true in your life? Do you fear some aspect of your own greatness?

What unique talents, capabilities and capacities do you have that you could acknowledge and appreciate more?

How can you demonstrate and cultivate those gifts more and express them with greater consistency in your everyday life?

Listen, your greatness is your birthright. God instilled this greatness in you from birth. ... Are you ready to claim it?

Before we gain knowledge of who we are our minds are an open book,  pages are blank and white. As we listen knowledge enters,  secrets are soon discovered and hidden things are found, words slowly fill the blank white pages of our minds as to how great we truly are. These imprinted words don't make noise as they are being written, but they make a powerful impact.

You have dreams you don't know about, but knowledge causes a knock on your door and now you see. Once you gain knowledge as to who you are, it will be hard to remain in the place you've lived for so long.

So, walk in your destiny. and if you don't know who you are yet seek God's face. Many times you can inquire of a good friend as to how they see and receive you. Start walking!!!


~See your greatness in you~


~These are my thoughts ... I welcome yours~
