There have been times when I’ve been counseling someone who has the appearance of being “stuck” in their story – they appear to be repeating a tale of woe and victimhood. For some of us this story from the past can feel really thick and dense and sticky.
Very often when something disappointing or painful, something upsetting and terrifying happens to us, where we feel betrayed and abused, we can draw conclusions about our self-worth and our value. The ego mind loves to interpret and make meaning of things. The ego mind is like a meaning making machine – and it’s all false! In every case where the ego is making meaning and interpreting the events of our life, it’s a story – it’s not the truth.
If we choose to believe the story the ego mind has made up, then it’s like we’ve taken it on and it becomes your prison.
Literally, it can seem like we wear our story like a garment. It can begin to seem like it’s our identity. The false interpretation, the negative meaning becomes a false identity. It’s amazing how quickly we can lose sight of your true identity as a pure being of light and love and become convinced that we’re a completely false identity. We can stay in the story for decades.
Some people become so attached to the false identity, and so invested in it, that it completely deforms their whole life experience. We know this is happening when we’re looking around our life every day gathering the evidence to support our story. If we’re gathering evidence to support why we’re limited and in lack, then we’re convinced of the story.
The good news is that the Truth will ALWAYS set us free when we’re willing to believe it.
This is one of the reasons why I love stories of redemption. My own life has become a story of redemption and now I’m able to shine God’s Glory rather than continue to perpetuate the ego’s story.
The question to ask ourselves is what will we choose to pour our precious life energy into:
Your story or Your Glory? Your history or your Freedom?
It’s time to choose.
Our glory is the glory of God and when we focus on choosing Love the glory of God naturally unfolds because Love is our true identity and it is always GLORIOUS!
If we choose the story and we feel the pain and restriction of the limitation and lack – let’s choose again! We don’t look back – we choose again! Onward and upward!
We’re waking up together and finding freedom in our hearts.
I’m so grateful for this!

LATEST PODCAST EPISODE! The most recent episode of my podcast’s topic is There Is No Death. All is one and so there is but one eternal life, and so there can be no actual death. What does that actually mean for us on a day-to-day level? Can we actually experience the oneness of all life and how do we know if we are? In this week’s episode, I share my own experiences of the unity of life, and the benefits of taking a stand for oneness, in other words, accepting the atonement for ourselves.
