“Pull back, it is not your business anymore”, she clearly heard the voice inside of her heart who gently tried to push her on a different path, an unknown path which was “less traveled by, but has made all the difference”(sorry mr. robert lee frost). She briefly resisted: it was so easy to just fall into this self pitty again and feel unworthy and not recognized. “But how should people know that it was acutally me to the same time? That I have created the choreograhpy as well? This is not fair!”
“So what do you reckon? Walking around and telling everyone how great you are? Is this, the opinion of others, so important for you? Really?”
“But how shall they know?”
“Don't I see your heart and you satisfy me? Stay humble and I will elevate you in the right timing.”
Sophie fell back on the chair in her room. Her heart was crumbling. Would she stay and wait and trust Him as she usually does?
“Yes, Lord, I trust you.”
“I told you, you run your own race, there is no one in front of you or next to you. It is just you and me. Fix your eyes on the prize and don't give up”
I guess, many times we are so interupted with other people's blessings that we don't see what is in front of us - we have fear of missing out, of not beeing at the right time at the right spot to pick up our little present and reap what eventually others have sown anyway.
But is that the passion which should drive us? Isn't it the satisfaction itself without the reward, without the trophy in the end? The good word of another person? Shouldn't it be the drive inside of us to do things regardless just of the sake of doing them?
I guess when we do it and stay faithful and true to ourselves and we do not depend on other people's comments, we will rise up in our own confidence so much that we know, what we know, what we always have known:
There is only one person in your life ever who knows you by heart and knows your heart altogether. Isn't this amazing?
It's not your partner, your grandma or your parents, your friends, your family or Dr. Hope.
It's the King of Glory who brings out the glory within you - for all to see.
