Vulnerability to Serve

Everyday Vulnerable with Purpose

​“What’s my purpose?  What am I supposed to be doing with my life?”  I’d like to suggest that your purpose is in front of you.  When Mother Teresa was asked how she was able to minister to so many people she replied, “I simply serve the person God puts in front of me.” Love and serve the people God puts in front of YOU each day. 

I realized that if I wanted to be known and loved for who I am, I first had to be honest and vulnerable so I could fully share who I am with others. I’ve found that the part of you you're most afraid to share is, more than likely, the part we’ve been waiting with bated breath to see. To be seen vulnerably is a risk, but it’s one worth taking because it allows others to be real and vulnerable too. Focus on the people God puts in front of you each day.  You make a difference by taking the time to listen and connect.  God does this with us too…everyday.
