S4 Ep. 228 I Am Because He Is: Discovering Your Inner Worth
Manage episode 477304641 series 2969385
The pursuit of material possessions, achievements, and external validation often leaves us feeling empty despite our successes. What if we've been defining our existence all wrong?
This episode explores a profound truth about human identity that transcends the physical realm. Taking inspiration from Kunle Soriyan's wisdom, we examine how many people become trapped in "the prison of matter"—pursuing ownerships and titles while missing the essence of true living. The concept of "poor billionaires" emerges—those who possess everything materially but lack internal substance.
When life's disappointments arrive unannounced, how do we respond? Through personal experience, we unpack two transformative questions: "Who are you?" and "Whose are you?" These seemingly simple inquiries hold the power to reframe our entire approach to challenges, decisions, and purpose. Like Moses who encountered the divine self-identification of "I am that I am," discovering your true identity provides an unshakeable foundation that external circumstances cannot disturb.
Most of us operate as "human doings" rather than "human beings," allowing our actions to define our worth rather than flowing from our authentic identity. This episode challenges this paradigm, inviting you to move beyond seeking validation through accomplishments. When you understand that the breath within you gives you the audacity to live without explanation to others, you'll discover a freedom that transcends geographical, cultural, and even spiritual boundaries.
