I have realized is that in 90% of our lives, we really do not have an “issue” following what GOD says is right to DO, however the last 10% holds a TON of struggles. Paul clearly shows us, we SHOULD be “suffering” on some level. But really, it should be from a “spiritual-stretch”.
Do you see or “spot” the difference between the two?
Read MoreIt’s time to share that I recently discovered I really wanted to have some “financial gains” in my new business because THAT would show that I was a “coaching success” (aka, not a failure). Somewhere in my soul, I wanted to see my “success” through a financial goal. But, that wasn’t how it worked out. ’Cause as much as I worked and worked and worked at “bringing money in,” well, COVID came along, insurance didn’t cover my role, paying “clients” came…and went…and soon, the “dollars” just didn’t add up to what I wanted.
BUT, what DID add up were some SOULS that really wanted to grow, shift and seek GOD’S truth.
And that is just what God is revealing to me again today in 1 Timothy, Chapter 6!
Read MoreGod totally calls us ALL into caring for those in the world. But if we look at HOW we are called to be Lord-Led Leaders we will see God so clearly commands us to give our time, attention and energy to our Spiritual “homes,” marital “homes,” parental “homes” and physical “homes” — BEFORE even thinking about serving OUTSIDE of those homes. He says to follow this order faithfully and then POOF! Spiritual peace, prosperity and purpose pop into your world, and then, and only then, you can pop out and serve God well.
I challenge you to give 1 Timothy, Chapter 3 a read and then hop on over and read what I have learned about in my journey to become a Lord-Led Leader!
Read MoreBack in the day, I used to be the woman who cared a whole whack about what she did or, dare I say, “got done” AND what she wore! Because, those WERE the key to make me “valuable” to…well, I may have said “to myself,” but really it was for everyone else.
BUT your brain can only choose to “care about” those things for so long until you realize your body is moving on: it will sag, shake, jiggle, wiggle, and then you have to make a decision about just “why and what” you will be living for.
And GOD certainly didn’t just let me move through this without a bit of HIS “input.” Join me in exploring what I found in 1 Timothy, Chapter 2 that helped me set some “Heart-Smart Goals”!
Well, think about it. All day long we face and make decisions based on the “voices” inside our head: telling, yelling, guiding, deciding, connecting and correcting our options — and, well, those “voices” are just FULL of opinions!! The problem is, pretty much always, they don’t all agree!! And sometimes, they even change their ideas from day to day… hour to hour… minute to minute… moment to moment.
Well, what has this girl has learnt? It is time to CHOOSE to listen to a NEW voice!
