Life is Not Performance

Beloved, a reminder for those moments of stress, pressure and self-doubt.

Contrary to what the world insists upon — life is not about performance.

Life is an unveiling of what is already within you. It is expression, not performance. It is the inside finding its way out, not the outside being managed and maintained for an audience.

This is your part:

Don’t feel compelled to impress or perform. Choose instead to be authentic — your true self. Believe in the good you carry. Believe in the value of your uniqueness. Don’t compete. Simply express what is within you.

As you express what is within, life will bring the tide that floats your boat. Life will bring the wind to fill your sails and set your course. Not through striving — through yielding.

Your audience is whoever will hear, read and listen. The whole world is your audience. Go wherever the door opens. Flow wherever the Spirit leads.

In doing so, you embrace God — for God dwells in, and is expressed through, all people in all places.

God has got you. Rest and be at ease. Live the life you have always wanted to.
