I hear a wise woman tell a friend that sometimes people want more of you. They want the real you--and lots of you.
They want more of you. Lots of you! I think about the expression all day.
I think about the way I hold back with people, even my own family. I think about how I hold back in writing and even in my teaching. I think about holding back even from God.
Am I holding back? Where? How? I imagine God says: "I want more of you." Do I believe it, or do I think I'm too much and unwanted?
Living with flair means not holding back. We want more of you.

This post reminds me of a chorus I sang way back in high school: "He is my everything, he is my all...." I do want God to have all of me all the time!
I just ordered a book called Everything: what you give and what you gain to become like Jesus by Mary DeMuth. Mary's writing is always authentic and transparent, and I look forward to reading it. I decided to paste in a link: Everything trailer!
OOOH, this looks like a book I would love to read!!
