There is a difference between the deep inner me and the external outgoing Helga that you see. And even though there is that difference, it does not mean that I am wearing a mask. The deep inner me is meaningful to me and my relationship with God. I like to think the happy outgoing Helga that you see is meaningful to you and to God. There maybe times when the two overlap….those thought provoking conversations that I’ve had. The times I have sat with close friends and we have shared sometimes difficult, confidential issues that tug at the heart and reveal buried pain.
The deep inner me that you don’t see, is always there. It effects me daily; it filters through my soul and touches my thoughts. It is like a permanent spiritual, umbilical cord that connects me to God. From God to me, I get the urge to jump up and down, bubbling with unexpected, unwarranted joy. From God to me, I am convicted – I bow my head in remorse and repent for ridiculous pride and lack of humility. From God to me, I silently rejoice, sitting quietly on the outside, while inside, I’m standing tall and lifting my hands and my voice in spectacular praise.
That deep inner me is the bit that will live forever when the clumsy frame on which it is built finally crumbles. I love the deep inner me, because it’s safe. It’s protected. All the promises of God to take care of, provide for, keep me from all harm & watch over my life apply fully to the deep inner me.
The deep inner me allows me to know that the weakness I see in the mirror is not true self…it’s the deep inner me that is hidden with Christ…

…and that’s the perfect place to be. It removes fear, it strengthens resolve, it calms uncertainty, it fills with the fruit of the Holy Spirit, it creates happiness and fulfillment and blankets me with peace.
Vava voom! It doesn’t get better than that!
God bless you today!
In His Grip,
Helga xx 🙂
