Defined

Define
1. to state or describe something exactly
2. to show something clearly, especially in shape or outline
3. to mark a boundary, edge, or limit
4. to give the precise meaning of a word or expression

I was defined by emotions....by the things I had gone through. I allowed the past define me...mold me and conform me. My spirit, my potential was hiding beneath layers of past hurts and feelings of worthlessness.

Now I stand here in a different form still unsure at times of what the future holds....yet determined to be transformed as my mind is renewed. I have let go of the pain, made a mends with the past and surrendered to all possibilities of hope.

I have awaken to my true self. With each breath I am inspired to be my best, to reach my fullest potential . I live now with a sense of peace that only comes from resting in God.

I am transforming as I now let discipline define me and sculpt me. My outer appearance is reflecting my inner being.

I am a reflection of the transformation that has taken place within. I let go of the expectations and just allow myself to take form.

I stand on the promises that I have made myself. I am faithful to myself because the first relationship I must heal is within me. I must reconnect my mind, body and spirit and let it work in unison.

Married to the promise, faithful to the promise.....I now  become what I was created to be....what I was supposed to be all along........

A TEMPLE.

Not constructed with hands but created by the Spirit of God.

Molded and shaped by the belief that I am worthy, I am strong and I am powerful.

Broken down by the struggle but defined by resistance.

I stand here strong, disciplined and ready to face my destiny.

  1. So much of what you've said here reminds me of myself -- both past and present. Now, only my faith in God and my own limitless vision for the future is what defines me. Discipline and strength and all that other good stuff is definitely along for the ride. Thanks so much for these beautiful words in you've written! xo

  2. God is faithful. Sometimes things in life...past hurts and experiences conform us but God's truth has the ability to transform us once we allow our minds to be renewed. Knowing who we are in God and being surrendered to His will definitely becomes the force we need to get us through. :) I am blessed to know you enjoyed what I wrote. Thank you for reading.
