What's Your Story?


Listen Later

You have a story. And, your story holds power. 

Once you unlock the truth written in your story, you could unlock yourself from cycles of bad habits, bad relationships, and more. If this idea feels overwhelming, listen in as we take the process one line at a time, one chapter at a time.

So, what is your story? Grab a pen and paper. Take a deep breath.

And, let’s begin.

Highlights:

“One of the bravest things we can do is tell our stories, own our stories and love ourselves through it.” - Brené Brown

Emotionally, spiritually, it’s really unhealthy for us to be living disconnected from what’s true and real about our past and our present.

One of the beautiful things that happens in those places that God reveals to us is they become strengths.  When God gets involved with what wounded us and hurt us, He begins to heal us. He also makes it a strength that we can pay forward and impart to others.  That’s such a beautiful thing He does.

The limits of my language mean the limits of my world.” – Ludwig Wittgenstein, Philosopher

When you consider spiritual coaching,  journaling, or a conversation with a friend, your words feel limited; what a gift to be able to sit with somebody who might have another word to offer you to add to your story, or to build on it or unpack it a little bit more. And to ask good questions. Questions that give you freedom to answer with more than just yes or no, that encourage you to be curious and encourage you to feel safe being curious.

When you get in touch with loving that younger self, you have a current, present love for yourself too.

Powerful Principle: What we fill our minds with creates our thoughts, our thoughts create our feelings and our feelings determine our behavior.

Story Work Ideas for You:

Ask God to be with you as you reflect on things that you believe about your story.

What are some things that you might believe that are not true about yourself?

Think back on being a little child, things that happened that you might have adapted a belief about.

You might even believe you have a bad story or no story.

You might believe that you’re not acceptable if you don’t always get things right or that you’re not lovable if you don’t please people all the time.

Just ask God,

“What am I believing?”

“God, what is true?”

Take some deep breaths and listen.

Take time to write down a couple of things that God wants you to know are true.

Work with a small, close circle of friends in this exercise.

Begin to write out what feels logical, significant seasons of your l
