Even if I can not always be able to let my true face be shown to people around me. The practice or the intent to do so has ever so much increased. With that, grace has increased. If I have a time when the mask came on , I receive His grace. Then He (our LORD) helps me take it off again.
I try not to compare myself with others.
That way it does not matter if someone else is able to be true faced more than I . Should you want to point how someone else is doing, I hope to be able to say, " Really, I never noticed. "
I try to be open to God's word.
That means instead of running to my usual mask, I am willing to hear from the Holy Spirit a voice of Truth. Further explanation, a reminder from the Holy Spirit what God's word from the Holy Bible has to say about what is going on in my life.
I am trying to stand on my own two feet.
This takes some doing , and I am not solidly sure this can ever be done alone.
Because the word says , let there be two or three witnesses.
However, I am learning to stand, (praise God, I am not alone.)
I believe that I am already forgiven.
I do not have to do some penance or hope to do better next time , to earn forgiveness. This has also affected the way that I relate to people. I realize that they also are forgiven.
