I know this feeling all too well, Janae. "Losing yourself is part of the journey."
I've discovered that following Him isn't what's hard at all. It's the letting go of the life we imagined, even orchestrated, and put in motion. It's the....letting of "I should be here by this time and age, and I should have accomplished this."
For me...the hardest thing was letting go the life I built within my mind without Him, and yielding to the life He's already created for me. It was....relinquishing all control to control my life and the outcome and letting truly be my Shepherd and the author of my life. Selah...
At the end of your post...I heard your question differently. What IF...you just stay in the cocoon...this one...being in (the dark) of His will and let Him release you in His timing? 🐛🦋🦋

What a great question to sit with... ugh. Thanks for challenging me. I'm fighting to see the light.
