Me I Never Knew: The Benefits of Self-Awareness

The God you see is the God you get! Paralyzing, right? Ponder that thought for a moment. Over time, I discovered that, as a "church baby," I had created an image of God and of myself that didn't reflect the truth. Scripture says that we are made in the image of God, so ultimately we should be a reflection, a mirror in which others can see the beauty, attributes, and essence of our creator. Ask yourself: "When I look in the mirror, do I see my creator?" This is why self-awareness is the foundational piece of the puzzle we call life. Self-awareness helps us gain the knowledge of who we are (strengths, weaknesses, etc.) why we are (purpose, gifts), and whose we are (our creator's ideas and thoughts of us)!



In this book, author Trinese McDowell takes you through her journey of gaining self-awareness through a story of trials and tribulations to the triumphant glory of restoration and redemption. She journeys through a map called life.
