Sacred Collaboration | living the life you were created to live

I’ve missed sharing with you in this space the past month but it’s also been good.

 

Even though I was working and finishing up artwork and writing for the Autumn Journal besides the podcast I took a break on a few things for the month of August. One of those was Instagram. Besides popping in to check out any cuteness that my daughters might have shared of the grands. Scrolling for the most part ceased and I’ve got to say... It felt nice… and refreshing for my soul and my nervous system ;)

This Podcast Presented by: Amplify Life Media

So the morning of day 2 my husband and I were sitting with the 2 oldest and were talking with them about how intentional God was when he created them. And how incredible it is to be a woman. How God took from Adam's side to form her goes to explain the meaning of the word that GOD originally spoke when referring to woman. 

He called her “ezer kenegdo” which means alongside, or counterpart. We talked about why I have the word EZER tattooed on my wrist… to remind me that the root word for ezer is a rescuer or an ally a warrior that is a skilled companion and partner.

 

In a world that is trying to equate being a female to wearing a dress and makeup. I want to make sure they understand that God has a reason he designed us the way that he has. And it has nothing to do with our personality or style preferences, but everything to do with our purpose.

As I was writing these thoughts and prayers out I found myself writing a thought that immediately popped into my mind…

 

Eve was living in scarcity when she believed a lie.

I then wrote out a question - What lie am I believing that is altering my destiny?

Here Eve was living in paradise and scripture tells us that the God of everything that was and is came and walked with her and Adam and yet …

Instead of standing fully in the abundance of all that God is she found herself in a scarcity mindset that opened her up to believing a lie.

 

Having a scarcity mindset over an abundance mindset can play out on many different levels in our lives.

In our humanity and desire to control entering this rest can be challenging.

We can have this never-ending need to feel productive…

Even in our relationship with God.

We can sometimes think the more we ‘do’ the more we will experience and bring to life

Yet, the mystery is the beautiful dance we must learn and get in rhythm with is ‘the being’

 

You are worthy of rest

 

And you are loved. Before you ever do one single thing. 

 

Sometimes it takes a sabbath for us to remember this truth.

So here I am purposely wading through puddles walking barefoot through a parking lot ….basically living my best life. (haha)

 

And I’ve got to tell you… it felt good.

 

It felt good to instead of getting frustrated and resisting getting wet

I walked straight into it and chose to follow whimsy and get wet!

 

We talk a lot about living life intentionally here on the podcast and that’s such an empowering thought and intention on the one side…

 

But life doesn’t always…match up to our expectations of how the days and weeks are going to look.

 

So do I still believe we should live intentionally absolutely …

 

We just need to make sure that intentionality continues when we have no choice but to enter the storm in front of us.

 

This season is more than likely going to bring a  summer storm or two your way.

 

And you might not have a choice of whether you have to walk through it but you absolutely have the choice in how you are going to walk through it.

 

I would love to remind you today whether you started this Summer season in the middle of a storm or understand there is more than likely one on the horizon …my hope and my prayer is that you will intentionally take off your shoes…

 

And you will recognize the ground your feet are touching is sacred.

 

And you are not walking through any storm alone.

 

Just as I felt the hard pavement underneath my wet feet that day as I made my way through the parking lot.

Reminding me with my senses I am alive and I am supported.

 

I hope you are reminded of that truth today as well.

So you can hear me saying I’m excited about moving into this next season thinking wow it must be nice to just flow excitedly from season to season connecting with God and journaling about how he is working in your life haha

 

Here’s the truth that I want you to hear. I haven’t “felt” excited...

I’ve continued to feel stretched in my life and felt tired and questioned what even matters YET!!! And here’s the really important part I want you to get…

And yet I have been excited about entering summer because that is where I have set my intention and my hope and my heart.

 

But I didn’t stop there…because I do know that my thoughts are just the starting point. 

 

I intentionally put action to faith.

I say it often and I’m saying it again…we make things so much harder than they have to be…

You were God’s idea

He has a plan and purpose for your life…to bear fruit in the world he has placed you 

And that happens naturally when we are in a relationship with him.

 

No striving….just being.

 

What a beautiful sacred space to live in.

I talk a lot about rhythms here on the podcast and in life, we have these rhythms between work and rest. I was thinking the other day when I was writing for the summer journal about how seasons are like rhythms….

Seasons are a beautiful, miraculous dance between work + rest.
