A wise therapist told me these 3 life forces drive almost every decision and choice we make in life. 1. Fear of abandoment (If I am really authentic and take off my cultural mask will people like me?) 2. Need for atonomy (I was given a unique purpo...se to live for will I find it and live it?) 3. Need to be connected (The drive for deep intimacy to truly have someone deeply understand me and me another)
AS on August 7 at 3:55pm I've waded my way through the first two but haven't mastered them . It's number 3 that is driving me lately.
This is my story of how Jesus continues to rescue me from myself. I am learning to put Him first. If you have found this blog, we are some how connected and it is my prayer it points you to Him. Glory be to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen
