Unqualified - Three Different Me's, Pt 9 - 190

Connecting The Gap: Bible, Book Studies, and Interviews

Let us know how this Episode helped you here!

When I was a kid, I created my fair share of fake identities. I used to watch karate movies and try to work on all the karate moves and would have fake fights. It wasn’t that I was trying to be something that I wasn’t or that I was trying to deceive anyone. Maybe it was just me trying to belong or maybe it was too uncomfortable to embrace who I was. It might have even been a little bit of both.
I also remember my friend and I riding bikes and acting like we were semis pulling big loads. At one point we even said that we would be a truck driving team when we got older. We’d back into a ditch and act like we were at a loading dock unloading our cargo and getting a new load.
Those were the days! Countless times as a kid I would be something different and live in a land of make believe. That’s just what kids did back in those days when they didn’t have a tv to watch and it was in pre-cellphone days!
When we grow up, we may be a little more sophisticated than kids, but our ability to pretend who we are is just as perfected. Sometimes maybe even more and not even in a good way! To quote the inimitable prince, “All of our life’s a stage, everybody’s stars, reality’s so blurry.”
Have you ever thought about how much of our lives revolves around us? Appearance, image, reputation, and recognition play a significant role in our daily lives. From the way we present ourselves in public to the way we interact with others, these factors shape how others perceive us and how we perceive ourselves.
There are three different Me's I have struggled with. You probably have as well. Sometimes, you may have not even realized the battle was taking place. This week we will discuss that on this episode.
