When Your Power Goes Missing
Have you ever felt like you're running on empty, even when your life looks full from the outside? Power doesn't always disappear in dramatic moments-sometimes it slips away quietly, like sand through fingers. We might have the credentials, the relationships, the resources, yet still feel unable to move forward. Think of it like a phone at 1% battery: technically functional, but one notification away from shutdown. The real issue isn't that we lack power-it's that something blocks us from converting potential into action. We're all born radiating authentic power. Babies command entire households without apology, disrupting sleep schedules and demanding attention through pure presence. But life slowly erodes this natural confidence. Cultural messaging tells us to shrink. Workplace dynamics reward conformity. Well-meaning advice teaches us to silence our instincts. Soon we're habitually conforming to ideas that contradict our beliefs, resenting others who express themselves freely, seeking validation before making decisions. Genesis tells us we're made in God's image-not physically, but in creative capacity and spiritual essence. Yet our inner lives often feel like chaotic mixtures of prayers, fears, hopes, and competing voices rather than divine reflection. The gap between our current state and God's original design isn't insurmountable, though. Each day offers another chance to realign with our authentic selves, to stop giving our power away to expectations that were never ours to carry.
