Being Comfortable with being Uncomfortable

Being vulnerable is where I’ve been the most uncomfortable. Being open about what I’ve been through and what’s going on in my mind has always been a struggle. I always felt like if people knew the real me and knew what was going through my mind they could use it against me or they would see me differently. That way of thinking always led me to isolate myself when I’m struggling. As I’m growing closer and closer to God, He’s been teaching me that I’m not meant to live this life alone. He places people in my life for a reason. Today I had the opportunity to share my story. I’d have to say that was the hardest thing I had to do in a long time. After sharing It felt like a weight lifted off from my shoulders. Being pushed out of you comfort zone gives you the opportunity to grow. Today was only the start of my healing journey. There are no words to express how thankful I am for the people God has put into my life and for the things I’ve gone through to be the person I am today. I thank God everyday that He pulled me out of the darkest moments of my life because I would’ve missed out on all the blessings, the people, the different experiences and the second chance I have to fall in love with my Lord and Savior. To be honest if things worked out differently I would’ve spent an eternity without God and not being able to be rescued. There are still times I do struggle with things from my past but now I have the strength and the support system to be able to overcome those struggles. When I feel unworthy, God reminds me that He is worthy and if I continue to keep my eyes on Him. He will make me worthy in Him and through Him. I have peace knowing that God is always with me and that He has a plan for my life. When things feel impossible for me, Nothing is impossible for Him. I will continue to put my trust in Him. He didn’t just save me but He restored me.
