My message today is not about figuring out how to find rest amidst chaos, it's more about asking the question - are you supposed to do all this in the first place? Understanding our role in following God is vital. It's not about creating our salvation; it’s about surrendering to God’s will. Our task is to be formed into the image of Jesus, living out everyday ordinary life centered around this goal.

I could see how in some ways that I was not being intentional about that and wondered if that is. Coming out of some kind of self protection. Because if I'm not actually reaching or looking for something, then there's no disappointment when I don't get it or see it.

You know, it's an example of we can't see what we can't see and sometimes it's only when we taste the fruit that we thought we desire, that we realize that we were longing and chasing a taste that we don't actually prefer or even desire.

 Hi. You. Yes, I'm talking to you. Seriously, I am so glad that you are here today. Because I know that there are a lot of things that you could be filling your time and your ears with. So I'm grateful that you are spending time here.

 In the midst of these wonder-filled precious moments of life. For most of us, it takes effort and intention to stay present and not miss the beauty that is to be found in the moment. A moment that might be surrounded by heart. As a fellow sister who has walked through and navigated a few winter seasons. I can remember how the chill in the air and the dark days of winter can feel endless.

The rains have soaked the earth and left it bright with blossoming flowers.

The season for singing and pruning the vines has arrived.

I hear the cooing of doves in our land, filling the air with songs to awaken

you and guide you forth. Can you not discern this new day of destiny breaking forth around you?

The early signs of my purposes and plans are bursting forth.

The budding vines of new life are now blooming everywhere.

The fragrance of their flowers whispers. There is change in the air.

Arise, my love, my beautiful companion, and run with me to the higher place.

For now is the time to arise and come away with me.

The essence of this episode is to encourage you to connect deeply to the Creator and allow His Spirit to guide and strengthen you.
