The Problem With Perfect

R&R #18: Do You Know What you Need?


Listen Later

What do you need?

It's easy to ask but difficult to answer because few of us really know what we need. We think we need a new outfit, a more loving partner, more food, sex, sleep or security. In this whirly and twirly COVID world, our longings leave us discontent and disconnected from what our hearts really need.

Join Robin for this R&R as she discusses why it's so important to know what we need and hear her practical tips on how to get it.

SHOW NOTES:

Prayer Robin uses during her quiet times:

May TODAY (in this moment, right now, the present) there be PEACE (tranquility, shalom, serenity, calm, freedom from disturbances or distractions) WITHIN (inside of me).

May I TRUST (have confidence, faith, acceptance without evidence or investigation) GOD (my creator, sustainer, Faither, provider, El Shaddi; the Almighty, El Elyon; the Most High, Yahweh; the Great I Am, our victory, our warrior, our sacrificial lamb, our Shalom; peace, our  Shepherd, sanctifier, and our righteousness) that I am EXACTLY (precisely, accurately, entirely, without discrepancy) where I am meant to be.

May I not FORGET (neglect or stop considering) the INFINITE (boundless, impossible to measure or calculate, limitless, immense) POSSIBILITIES (promises, alternatives, likelihoods, potentials) that are born BORN (come to life often through a painful process, awakened) of FAITH (complete trust, complete confidence, unwavering belief)

May I USE (display to accomplish a purpose or achieve a result for your glory) the GIFTS (something given freely without payment, a donation, a natural ability or talent) that I have RECEIVED (taken charge of, be responsible for).

And PASS ON (hand over) the LOVE (affection, intense feeling of deep joyful expression, showing care for) that has been given to me. 

May I be CONTENT (a state of peaceful happiness, satisfied, pleased) KNOWING (being aware, realize, being conscious of) I am a CHILD (a descendant, an heir, offspring, influenced by my heritage, made in the likeness of, fruit)  of GOD (see description above).

Let this presence SETTLE (make a permanent home) into my BONES (my body’s basic, fundamental framework that holds me up) and ALLOW (permit, authorize, grant, empower, enable) my soul the FREEDOM (power to act, speak and think without restraint, privilege, liberty, independence, openness)  to sing, dance, PRAISE (admire, worship, glorify, honor and acclaim) and love. 

It is there for each and EVERY ONE (all inclusively available) of us.
