Boldly Becoming with Baxbara

No one outside your head knows the exact battles you're fighting or how many early mornings you've dragged yourself out of bed, but that doesn't mean it goes unnoticed. You're trying your best and that should be good enough FOR YOU, because that dedication is adding up and your season of reward is creeping up! (Read Col 3:23 & Gal 6:12)
If my little life has taught me anything it's that nothing lasts forever, not hardships, not high moments, not even relationships. 
So how do you continue to show up consistently in an inconsistent world/life? My 3 takeaways this past week:
1. Take a break (and don't wait for permission)
In an age where we can see the opinions of LITERALLY the whole world, it's so important to take a moment to recalibrate with your own, take time out to search yourself and ask (God) whether the direction you're speeding off into -- is indeed correct.
If a surgeon cuts 1cm too deep or a pilot flies 1 degree off, the end result is dramatically different, and that's how I'm trying to steward my energy. In the right direction with the right amount of commitment.
2. Practice Gratitude
This art of gratitude has helped keep me grounded in my most exciting seasons, because I understand the value of the opportunities I'm living in and in times of desperation or despondency it helps me lift my eyes off of what I don't have so I can maximise what I do have.
Soon you'll come to realize what God has given you and the responsibility that comes with it. Then wake up everyday and ask yourself: How are you bringing heaven on earth with the gifts heaven sent you with?
3. You'll have to tune into the @boldly.becoming podcast on Friday to get this point 🤣😉❤️.
