Friend,
Rise up!
You are NOT held back by your past mistakes or present hurts.
Not pressed down by the expectations of others or those you place on yourself.
Make CONFIDENCE your stance -- take COURAGE!
Chase your dreams + give your best to stay authentic, fearless, risky and real.
Fiercely pursue the passions He has placed on your heart.
Choose to live in FAITH, not fear.
Go do it!
Embrace your calling.
You are God-commissioned -- specifically selected for His work.
He CHOSE and created you for such a time as this.
You're empowered to BE who you were created to be!
Cheering you on,
Jonathan
