People will try to box into a corner because they don’t see your potential. Some will label you based on who they think they know you to be or who they think your existence depends on. I laugh and pray for people that seem surprised that I’m confident and successful. No one will ever know what we’ve had to endure to arrive at the place where we are. They don’t see the tears and the pain. They are not around for the hours and days of praying. They will never know the cost you’ve paid yet they will want to decide your worth based on likes, posts and/or fake popularity. We cannot depend on the affirmation of this world for our motivation. We must be inspired by definitively knowing the reason why we are doing what we do. The why is our inspiration. The who can’t be our reason because their responses and lack of support or understanding will change with the weather. You have to believe in your purpose. You have to be your biggest cheerleader or no one can receive the real impact that is intended from your gifts. Pray hard for direction and clarity. And what I mean when I say pray hard is that we must pray consistently like our life depends upon it because frankly, it does.
