Born to manifest the Glory of God!!!

I ran across this quote last night:“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, ‘Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous?’ Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn’t serve the world. There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We were born to manifest the Glory of God that is within us … And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” (Nelson Mandela)Live free! Live in the Glory that God has given you! Be who He created you to be!"It is the image of God reflected in you that so enrages hell; it is this at which the demons hurl their mightiest weapons."  -- William GurnallHidden in each of us is the very Glory of God! The image and likeness of .... if that image is revealed in the fullest of ways there is nothing the enemy can do... so he must lie to you and put fear upon you so that you limit yourself and thus the glory remains unseen.He wounds our hearts, even breaks them. But Christ came to heal our hearts so that the glory there contained could be released to all those around us. Far too often we are unaware that we need a healing of the heart. We determine to move forward when in fact we are wounded too deeply to recover without His Healing.Only His Presence can bring that sort of healing! Only in His Presence, removed from distractions, are we able to hear him. Only in the security of His embrace can we allow those broken places to be revealed."Lord, I ask you to surround us with Your Presence. We desire to give ourselves completely to You. Jesus we come into your Presence now, and ask You to bring healing to our hearts! We give you our hearts, our broken, wounded places! I know that you made and redeemed our hearts and You and You alone can heal our hearts so that your Glory can be seen. We push past the fear.... Your Love breaks all fear... Your Love will not fail us... Thank you ....!!!"
