I recently had a conversation recently this same friend. I reminded her of what she had said to me years ago and how that had stayed in my mind. She kind of got a funny look hoping she hadn’t offended me and I had been thinking about it all this time haha. I assured her that wasn’t the case. But what she had said to me that day did hit me in a way that made me think and that thinking continued through the years.

So 20 years later I brought back up that question and said that day you asked me about worship and said you couldn’t imagine singing and leading worship not being a big part of my life. And here’s what I’ve realized I am as passionate about worship as I ever was it’s just with my whole life now.

And as excited as we all can be at the start of a new year here we are a few weeks in and it’s easy to revert back to the ways that are comfortable to us…

I heard a statistic this past week and I didn’t look it up so sorry if it’s not accurate, but I’ve heard the point of it before so I’ll share but the person said that 80% of the thoughts we have each day are on “auto-pilot”

Is that not crazy?!?

But I believe it!

Happy new year friends!

Here we are in the first full week of 2021 and I don’t know what the view is from your life’s window right now...but it’s already looking pretty eventful from my view.

As usual for this time of year lot of talk about goals and resolutions and word for the year...and if you’ve been around a while you know my thoughts about these things...you have a word rise up in you for the start of a new year GREAT…. You have ZERO positive or productive words rising up… still great!

You alive you’re here…

Hi friends! Here we are in the final days of 2020 and what a year!

I know this year has held different circumstances for each of us. For me it has been such a mix of beautiful + challenging moments.

I wanted to end this year with something that God dropped in my spirit in the last couple of weeks that made such a BIG difference in my life this past year.

My faith is always so stirred up when I read about Mary’s encounter with the Angel and the Holy Spirit coming upon her and her response in this encounter…

As I was praying + playing in my journal on a rainy Fall morning recently, I found myself doodling leaves and writing these words...

“What needs to fall away in my life?
What dead thing that is barely holding on needs to be released and fall away?

Change is good...
And a natural part of growth.

Don’t resist the things falling away.
Appreciate them for what they brought to you in their season and celebrate the change that their falling away is bringing to you.”

👉🏼Are you sensing or desiring the need for some things to fall away during this season?

If you have struggled with believing that God has a unique purpose for your life and that purpose is something that he wants to partner with you in bringing to the world then you want to get your hands on this foundational session SHE IS in Christ.

This course will help guide through understanding that you being here is God’s idea and he is crazy about you and wants you to walk and live in the freedom that he has provided for you!

A few weeks ago I started sensing a shift. I actually started feeling a heaviness and I’ve learned when I start feeling that way and there is nothing going on that would be making me feel that way there’s usually another reason. I started noticing a rise in angry posts on social media and a lot of fear-based posts and commentary. And I found myself praying against the spirit of fear.

As I was thinking about what I wanted to share today I was reminded of something from my days in Tennessee. Summers were hot and winter was cold! We did enjoy the occasional falling of snow even though it typically didn’t last that long unless it was a major winter storm blowing through.

So I do have some fun memories of playing in the snow, some of the funniest memories are about all the times as kids we would stay up late watching the latest news reports and praying fervently that school would be called off because of the “forecast” of snow. That was the great thing about being surrounded by ridges, hills, and mountains. Just the high probability of ice or snow could close things down for days and we were thrilled to be blessed with the gift of SNOW DAYS!

Did you know There’s a reason you think and feel the way you do, You were wired to experience and move through life in a certain way?

God designed each of us internally with a unique personality, thoughts, feelings and dreams, and desires

Those qualities are the true seeds that God placed inside of you when you were being formed in your mother’s womb.

I had the thought a few weeks ago about sharing a thought from my journal page for the month of July and wanted to invite you along in the July journal journey.

This leads me to the topic of today’s episode. 3 tools to hear God more clearly.

Maybe ...perhaps; possibly.

Maybe these days we are living are exactly what we each needed to live the life we were created to live.
