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!

I’m telling you these things while I’m still living with you. The Friend, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send at my request, will make everything plain to you. He will remind you of all the things I have told you. I’m leaving you well and whole. That’s my parting gift to you. Peace. I don’t leave you the way you’re used to being left—feeling abandoned, bereft. So don’t be upset. Don’t be distraught, yield to fear, or be troubled in your hearts—instead, be courageous!

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.

Are you ready to uncover the lies you are believing that are keeping you stuck spiritually?

In today’s episode, we are talking about how a contemplative practice such as journaling can help you connect with God in a deeper way.

During these practices of getting still and putting pen to paper, the Holy Spirit helps us discover lies that we have been believing and replace them with Truth.

You were created to live free friend! Make the choice to show up and watch God show up powerfully in your life!

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.
