Letting Go Of Who You Want To Be

We all have this version of ourselves that we see in our minds, and desire to be. Lately I've been wrestling with God, and myself about what that version should look like. He is telling me one thing, but I'm believing another thing. I find it hard to believe that He is saying otherwise. I can't seem to fathom that He is saying something different. A part of me is in disbelief while another part of me is excited. I keep asking myself if I'm hearing what I want to hear.

"He is telling me one thing, but I'm believing something different."

I know that I have to come to terms with the fact that I'm not who I thought I was desiring to be. I still have yet to take the time to sit with the truth that God has revealed, and begin to peel back the layers of who I have always been. I know that it won't be easy, but I do know that it is necessary. I know that if I don't make this change I won't see the life that God has for me, because that life only exists if I'm the version of myself that He is calling me to be. It scares me to even think that, but I won't pass up on God's best for me.
