You know when you hear something, and it just sticks with you? You spend time meditating on it and figuring out where it fits within your thoughts or beliefs. I overheard a motivational speaker say on a podcast last week that most people (he recited a statistic, but my brain didn’t have the capacity to retain that info) don’t even know what their own personal philosophy is. I’m not really sure what he said after that, because I couldn’t help but to be surprised. I’m not naive to that fact that everyone is raised differently and not everyone believes in God, but I just couldn’t grasp that so many people don’t know what they stand for.
My faith has always been my anchor. During some of the most difficult times in my life, I still knew who I was in Christ. He is working all things for my good! Because of my relationship with Christ, I know exactly what I believe in. I rest in God’s promises. I believe in honesty, modesty, and servant-hood. We have opportunities everyday to be shaped by our world. We get to choose whether we allow the world to teach us, or allow God to show us the truth.
My personal philosophy is a result of my faith, life-experiences, friendships, jobs, my education. The more I surround myself with Christ followers, the deeper my faith grows. The more I invest in and value my friendships, the closer the bond. In every aspect of our lives, we have the opportunity to grow, learn, adapt and decide whether or not those things fit within who we are and who God says we are.
What is your personal philosophy and what are the things that shaped you the most?
P.S. On a lighter note, I believe in fashion and feeling good in your own skin. Fashion and beauty are often overlooked, but I fully believe what we wear and how we wear it is a representation of who we are and what we want the world to know about us.
