I have walked the line between pride and doormat since I was a teenager. My gifts are the up front kind. I have always struggled with how to respond to being used by God in a public way. During the last few weeks, however, God has been teaching me that what I've been pushing down is okay to set free. I am who God created me to be. He WANTS me to use my gifts for Him. I also stopped doing some ministry things because I couldn't find the balance between pride and true humility. But now I'm back in the saddle and thinking big. This post is fantastic. I plan to share it. Thank you. Reading this today is timely for me. I have walked the line between pride and doormat since I was a teenager. My gifts are the up front kind.
