“So take seriously the story that God has given you to live. It’s time to read your own life, because your story is the one that could set us all ablaze” (Dan B. Allender).
That’s it. Staying true to your own narrative isn’t easy. It’s much easier to copy someone else’s life or to live to the expectations and desires of what others think you should do and be (or your own conception of what others think you should do and be).
No one will be set ablaze by a second rate imitation but by a first rate version of you being uniquely you. You-niquely you.
“Never, for the sake of peace and quiet, deny your own experience or convictions” (Dag Hammarskjöld).
