Thank you! So how do we allow ourselves to be public people and keep a humble heart/confident spirit. Confident in God, not caring how we appear to others, but keeping in tune with his movements and desires for us? <br /><br />Nun or prophet, I just want to KNOW already! I want to bring healing and encouragement, that&#39;s all. <br /><br />PS do I know you Jessie?Dani Rayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00612179783772929010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4520425535372679935.post-23271108902893348662011-10-22T22:53:49.885-07:002011-10-22T22:53:49.885-07:00about once a year or so i experience a similar crisis, sometimes public, sometimes not. and then someone who i didn&#39;t even remember read my blog sends me an email or leaves me a comment about how my writing blesses them.<br /><br />and i remember that running away from the spotlight (in itself) does nothing to kill pride. it just allows it to lay dormant for a season. but learning to be in the spotlight and to allow God to wrestle humility into you--that&#39;s what made moses able to stand in front of thousands but be accountable only to one. <br /><br />[some of us are called to be cloister nuns, others to be prophets. our twenties are a time of figuring out what God has for us but--once you figure it out, don&#39;t turn back.]jessiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13181595671648318619noreply@blogger.com
