32.💗 Growing In a Heart Knowledge of Who I Am In Christ

Hey Friend!

Have you ever found yourself feeling insignificant, unworthy, or undeserving of the love God has for you? 

For most of my life, I have had a head knowledge that I am saved and that Jesus loves me, but I never truly felt worthy.  I wasn’t walking with the heart knowledge of what salvation and the love of God means for me in my everyday life.

My identity has always been based in who I was for someone else…   girlfriend, daughter, wife, mother, leader.  My sense of value and worth came completely from external sources.  I had been trying to prove myself worthy to those around me, all the while feeling insignificant and invisible.

This has manifested itself in many ways throughout my life…  anxiety, panic disorder, body shame, disordered eating, unhealthy relationships, over-functioning at work, Imposter syndrome. 

Over the past several years, I realized that I had wandered too far away from the only audience that matters.   I had become distant from God and was not seeking intimacy of relationship with Jesus.  I was not walking with a heart knowledge of who I am as a daughter of the King.  I knew that I desperately needed to depend on God and find my value in him because I could no longer find it in the world. 

Today I share a message about my journey, the 12-inch journey from my head to my heart, that took the better part of 49 years.  I talk about the difference it has made in my life and the freedom I have found.

I hope this episode blesses you and that you will continue to join me on this journey toward balance, peace, and freedom to live the abundant life you were called to.

Xoxo,

Tanya
