Embracing Emily was born out of the need to embrace each and every unique characteristic, circumstance, and chaos that is me... Emily. In the process, I hope to inspire you to embrace what makes you uniquely one-of-a-kind.
Romans 12: 6-8 says, "We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith; if it is serving, then serve; if it is teaching, then teach; if it is to encourage, then give encouragement; if it is giving, then give generously; if it is to lead, do it diligently; if it is to show mercy, do it cheerfully."
My heart's desire is that we each learn to love ourselves and others well while embracing all of the ways God has made us uniquely one-of-a-kind. We were each created on purpose and for a purpose. Let's embrace it.
“The more we let God take us over, the more truly ourselves we become – because He made us. He invented us. He invented all the different people that you and I were intended to be. . . It is when I turn to Christ, when I give up myself to His personality, that I first begin to have a real personality of my own.” ― C.S. Lewis
