 Topic: Woman You Were Meant to Be, Excavating the Real You

Scripture
“You did not choose Me but I chose you.”

                -     John 15:16

Message
Some women today feel a sadness they cannot name.  Though they accomplish much of what they set out to do, they sense that something is missing in their lives and they fruitlessly search “out there” for the answer.  What’s often wrong is that they are disconnected from who they were meant to be. 

Food for Thought

          Write out a quick list of ten solitary pleasures

         If you could instantly acquire three additional skills, what would they be?

         What three outrageous things would you try if no one knew about it?

         Imagine you’re having a dinner party and invite six fascinating people 
             (they can be dead or alive).  Who are they?

         Readdress these in a couple of days, do you see things differently?

         Share the above with a friend.  What do they see?

          (What you are searching for is a pattern of personal, authentic preferences)

Prayer

       God, 

Help me to find who You created me to be.

If I have ignored or denied some part of myself, forgive me, and help me to find it. 

Lead me to opportunities that allow me use these gifts and desires.

Teach me that long-buried dreams can still call me; that delay is not denial. 

Amen
