Welcome to Milky Ministries – Nourishing Your Spirit One Drop at a Time

Episode Title:

 Why Now? Rooted and Overflowing – Living Out God's Truth in Every Season

Episode Description:

 Hey hey hey y’all! Welcome to the first episode of Milky Ministries – where we nurse your spirit with God’s Word and real-life reflections one drop at a time.

In today’s episode, we are diving into a journey of obedience, reflection, and how God uses our gifts to shape and refine us. This season is all about looking back to see how far God has brought us. The title of this episode, “Why Now?” sets the tone for the entire season – a season of embracing the gifts God has given us, even when they feel overlooked or suppressed.

I’ll be sharing personal experiences of how God revealed the power of communication through my children and life’s lessons. Together, we’ll reflect on the ways God calls us to trust His timing and step boldly into His marvelous light.

We’re launching this season with the GLOW framework – Gratitude, Living in the Moment, Open Journaling, and Words of Affirmation. Each segment will guide you in reflecting on how to steward the gifts God has placed within you.

Scripture Focus:

• 1 Peter 2:1-9 – You are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation.

Key Takeaways:

1. Gratitude (GLOW Framework – G):

• Be grateful for the gifts God has given you, even if they feel small or unnoticed.
• Reflect on how God uses life experiences and even your children to reveal the gifts you may have overlooked.

1. Living in the Moment:

• Trust God’s timing, even if you don’t feel ready.
• God’s plans often unfold gradually, but each step of obedience brings clarity and growth.

1. Open Journal (Reflection):

• Reflect on the moments you felt you had to shrink or hide your gifts.
• Recognize how God uses your past experiences to shape the gifts inside you for His glory.

1. Words of Affirmation:

• Speak life and God’s truth over your gifts and purpose.
• Affirmations:
• I am chosen by God and my gifts reflect His purpose for me.
• I walk in obedience, trusting God’s timing.
• My voice matters and I use it to glorify God.

Journaling Prompts:

1. When was the time you felt like you had to hold back your gifts or voice?
2. How has God used your children or those around you to reflect areas in your life that need nurturing?
3. What gift do you now recognize as something God has given to be stewarded and shared?

Challenge for the Week:

 Take time this week to reflect on the gifts God has placed inside of you. Ask Him to show you how to steward these gifts for His glory. Write down one step of obedience you can take today – no matter how small.

Words of Affirmation:

• I am chosen by God and my gifts reflect His purpose for me.
• I walk in obedience, trusting that God's timing is perfect.
• I am equipped and called to proclaim His goodness.
• My voice matters and I use it to glorify God.

Closing Prayer:

 Lord, I thank You for the listener on the other side of this episode. I pray You would plant seeds of truth in their heart and reveal the gifts You’ve placed inside them. May Your light shine in the dark areas of their life, and may they walk boldly in the calling You have placed upon them. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
