Lessons I Live By 4
The older I get the more I want to keep things focused on what really matters. This fall I am sharing some of the lessons I have learned that help me do that. My hope is that my reflections will encourage you to think about the lessons that matter most to you. Choose to live those lessons and share them with those who look to you for encouragement and inspiration.
The fourth lesson I try to live by is to always be myself. I have learned the hard way that pretending is exhausting and inauthentic. Plus, I have learned over the years that no one is fooled by the charade, and I end up looking like a fool when I try to be someone I’m not.
Why would any of us try to be someone else? Each of us is a loved child of God! Each of us has a gift to share! Each of us adds beauty to the wonderful diversity of God’s world! Each of us matters! So, be yourself, be the person God created you to be!
Yours in Christ,
Marc
