Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that frightens us.
We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant,
We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant,
gorgeous,talented and fabulous?
Actually, who are we not to be?
You are a child of God.
Your playing small doesn’t serve the world.
There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking
Actually, who are we not to be?
You are a child of God.
Your playing small doesn’t serve the world.
There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking
so that other people won’t feel insecure around you.
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 light shine,
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 light shine,
we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fears,
our presence automatically liberates others.
I read this poem from time to time just to remind me of how
awesome God created me to be. I’m still finding it hard to believe though. So
for now I will just read and read for me to believe. And I shall wait until the
day will come that I will become what I believe.
