Receiving the Gift of Our Voice
Receiving a gift is not passive—it’s an intentional act of valuing, using, and remembering. When we truly receive, we don’t just hold the object; we connect with the giver’s heart, and the relationship between us grows deeper.
The same is true of our voice. To discover and connect to it, we must first recognize that it is a gift—not something we earn, create, or prove, but something already given by a loving Father. And His most breathtaking gift is not only His Son, Jesus Christ, but also the truth that we are literally His children.
When we receive that truth—not just with our minds, but deep into our souls—it reshapes how we see everything. Hardship takes on context, joy becomes fuller, and the constant striving for worth is quieted by the reality of divine belonging.
We are His greatest gift to ourselves. To truly connect to our voice—our virtue, our power, our person—we must learn to receive who we already are: beloved children of God.
