Become Who You Were Created to Be - Paperback

by Teresa Velardi (Author)

Life has many twists and turns. As we navigate the journey, we sometimes forget who we are and who God Created us to be.

We were all born with gifts, talents, and a purpose created by God and are here to fulfill our purpose using those gifts and talents.

The world and its happenings can easily sidetrack us from God's plan. We can easily get caught up in people, places, and things that distract us from His purpose and

plan for us, especially at this time and in this place.

Just look around, and you'll see the worldly ways doing their best to take us off our path to becoming who and what we were created to be.

This book is an invitation to step into your best life, your best ways of being, your best relationships, and all the goodness God intended for you to have.

The content will remind you who you are in Christ, a child of the Most High God, creator of the entire Universe! You were created in His image, and He has a plan for you.

We are all lost until we choose to look to Him instead of the worldly distractions, I know I was, and it's still easy to be distracted.

Many of us are lost in toxic relationships, habits, and addictions and don't know how to break free from them. I know this from my own life experience.

I chose to marry a man who was not God's choice for me.

I know this because I heard God tell me that he had someone so much better for me while I was standing at the altar on my wedding day.

That wasn't the first poor choice I'd made, yet it was the one that took me face to face with my reflection in the mirror, asking an all-important question:

"Who are you, and why are you here?"

That was a two-fold question. Who had I become, and why was I still in my marriage?

I was lost, hurting, and being hurt physically and emotionally by my then-husband.

I felt far from God and needed to find out why I was even on this planet.

I knew He gifted me many talents, and I wasn't using them. I felt dead inside.

My hope in putting these pages together is that you will begin your journey to becoming who you were created to be.

There are some thought-provoking pages and scriptures with pages for you to record those thoughts.

My prayer for you is that you will come to know the person God created YOU to be.

There will be both joy and sorrow along the way. So keep the tissues handy, and snuggle up close to Jesus. He will never leave you or forsake you.

He is the Potter. We are the clay.
