Permission To Be Yourself | Monday Morning Muse (07.20.26)

Your way is okay—but you must give yourself permission to walk it.

In this first Morning Muse, Treveal C.W. Lynch encourages you to stop measuring your path against the expectations of others and begin honoring the unique way God created you to express, contribute, and come alive.

Do the thing. 

Share the gift. 

Walk your path. 

The world does not need another copy—it needs the fully alive version of you.

Good morning and welcome to morning muse number one. This is something that I want to begin to do. I want to begin to share my morning muses with you. Every morning I pray, I meditate, and I muse. I allow God, Creator, to inspire me with something that sets me on my way and sets up my day. And I just want to begin to share those things with you.

That they may be of service to you, contribute to you in whatever way that may be right for you. So today the muse is this: your way is okay. Whatever your way is, it's okay. And I encourage you to make your way okay for you. You are the only one that needs to accept it.

You're the only one that needs to give permission to it. You're the only one that needs to approve of your way. If this message is for you, then you already know what that thing is. There's something in your heart that you've been wanting to do. There's a way that you've been wanting to express yourself. There's a way that you've been wanting to contribute to this world. There's something maybe you've been wanting to say or do, a place that you've been wanting to go.

And you've been holding yourself back because you've been convinced, you've been under pressure, you've met the resistance of our culture and society, telling you that no, no, no, that person's way is the way, or you you have to go this way, or you you you have to do it this way in order for you to be happy or to be successful, whatever it is for you. But today I just want to encourage you that.

There is no right way. No one truly knows anything. We're all just doing the best we can with what we think we know. So please, I encourage you, give yourself permission today to make your way okay. Let it be okay for you.

Do that thing, express that thing, share that thing, say that thing, go that place, go that way. Do it the way you do it. The way only you can do it. Let me end with this. One of my favorite Christian mystics once said don't ask what the world needs. Rather, ask what makes you come alive and go do it.

For what the world needs are people who have come alive. And yeah, come alive to yourself today. Come alive to that beauty. Come alive to that richness. Come alive to that expression. Come alive to that joy. Come alive to that goodness, that godness that's within you. Come alive to it. Breathe it. Extend it outward. Express it. Share it.

Be about it. Hmm. Your way is okay. But you must decide for yourself to agree with this and to allow this to be for you. And I pray that you do. This has been morning muse number one. Maybe I'll number them as I go forward. Maybe I won't. But for today.

I offer this to you as a contribution and a service. May it be used to your good and to the collective advancement of society as a whole. Love you guys, praying for you guys, believing in you guys. Until next time, God bless you.
