Who did God make you to be? Are you that person? Do you even know who that person would be?

I’ve seen multiple studies, along with articles from those who do palliative care, that all identify one huge common regret at the end of life: not being who you wanted to be. 

We go through life trying to keep others happy and that prevents us from being who we know we should be. We also sideline who we know we should be because the time doesn’t seem right, or it’s scary, or we worry what others will think.

This is a horrible way to live and a sad way to die. But it’s bigger than just that. I think a lot of later in life divorces come down to one spouse thinking the only way they can be who they were supposed to be is to get a divorce.

If you’re married, then God wants you to stay married. But that doesn’t mean you can’t become the person He intended you to be. It will be a fight, but it’s worth the fight. If you decide it’s time to go for it, please start by telling your husband what’s going on. At the very least it will keep him from getting worried and he might step up and offer his support.

~ Paul – I’m XY, and I think you should be who God called you to be.
