You Were Created by a Loving God… But Something Isn’t Aligned

“You were created by a loving God who made you in His image and likeness…”
That line doesn’t land as information.
It lands as tension.
REVELATION
Because if that’s true… then why does life feel disconnected from that reality?
I notice something immediately: There’s a gap between what I’ve heard and what I’m experiencing.

If I was created in His image—
then where is the clarity?
Where is the authority?
Where is the peace that should come with that identity?
This isn’t doubt.
This is awareness waking up.
And it’s uncomfortable.
Because it forces me to confront something deeper: Maybe I’ve been living from a version of myself that was taught… not revealed.
The idea that I’m “designed” sounds powerful—but internally, it doesn’t fully match what I see in my day-to-day life.
So now I’m sitting in this tension:
If I’m created in His image…why does my life feel shaped by everything else?
PERCEPTION
I start noticing patterns.
Not outside first—inside.
I’ve been responding more than leading.
Reacting more than discerning.
Thinking from pressure instead of presence.
And it hits me—
I’ve been trying to become something that was already placed within me.
But my mind hasn’t been interpreting it correctly.
My soul hasn’t been carrying it clearly.
So my life keeps expressing confusion instead of alignment.
This isn’t about lacking something.
This is about misalignment in the flow:
Spirit Within → Soul → Mind → Body
Somewhere in that flow, distortion entered.
And now I’m living downstream from it.
I can feel it.
There’s something in me that knows this isn’t how it’s supposed to be.
Not emotionally.
Structurally.
INTERRUPTION
This is where the shift happens…
The full discernment and faith-walking process continues inside the Power Tower.
