The masks we wear to be accepted only cover what God already calls beloved. You don’t have to perform—you get to be real, because you’re already fully loved.
The orphan mindset says you have to earn love. Sonship says you already have it. In Christ, you’re not begging to belong—you’re resting in what’s already yours.
Fear fades when love takes over. Agape doesn’t just calm your anxiety—it replaces it with the deep, soul-level security of being fully known and fully loved.
Sometimes it’s not what we say we believe about God—it’s what we feel about Him that tells the real story. But Jesus came to heal even our emotional image of God.
