The Re-Introduction

Greetings All; I’d like to RE-Introduce myself. I am Dr. Valerie A. Burrell. This may seem comical or amusing to some, but I have been challenged with embracing a phase of transition in my life that has been uncomfortable. Have you ever had people in your life that you thought were really “YOUR PEOPLE,” and then they turned their backs on you. It’s happened to me several times, but this time – it got my attention in a new way. During meditation and prayer, I clearly heard, “I’m glad you’re finally changing your clothes.” Hearing that stung me, offended me initially, and even chastised me. I thought to myself, “What have I been wearing that was wrong?” and “What am I now putting on”?

What I discerned is that I was walking into a new season. Just as we change our clothes from winter to spring, I had to embrace the greatness that was coming forth. Many people see me as strength, but I am like most – I still struggle with seeing my true potential come to life. Those days are changing – I used to struggle with seeing my potential and greatness! Not only am I having to change my clothes, but also re-introducing myself to myself.

Take some time before the new year and see if maybe, you need to re-introduce yourself to your audience.
