“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

Fabian,
I see this in you. I have rarely spent time with you, where I did not walk away loving Jesus more. I am blessed to call you friend. I am praying that God will open up his great mercy and shower it upon you as you continue to love him, and show his love.
Jer, my brother from a different mother, father, country, origin...:) God indeed does work in awesome ways and thank God I was led to you and the vineyard! I pray that you receive the strength to persevere and to keep doing the things that you do for His kingdom.
Thanks so much for putting this up Fabain. It is so true. I have tried to shrink back and hide my whole life.
