So true! We sometimes get lost and think of ourselves as performers on a stage, being evaluated for every word, nuance, expression, reaction. How exhausting! My breakthrough came when I realized how deeply I was loved by God, and not for what I’ve done. And that I couldn’t change my value in His eyes by “doing better” or by “blowing it”! I felt relief like I’d never experienced and it’s there for me when I walk dangerously close to that performance line.

What a beautiful testimony! Thank you so much for sharing!
