The Love Dare – Week 4

Love Dare Challenge

The Love Dare – Week 3

  • My thoughts on striving: 👉🏻 Gods timing is perfect. When I am striving I am trying to do things in my own time, not His. 👉🏻 when I am striving I am trying to rely on my own strength, knowledge, power and not Gods. 👉🏻 it doesn’t mean I am not working, I am instead trusting in His timing and His strength while putting in the work and effort needed at that time. Resting in His truth and not working out of fear. When I replace fear with trust I am able to take brave action and make kingdom impact progress and not worldly burn out because my strength and power is coming from Him. #nothingtoprove #shespeaksbrave #womenoftheword #wellwateredwomen
  • You may know it. But do you believe it?! #shespeaksbrave #nothingtoprove #youareworthy #heisenough
  • Enough. For as long as I can remember I have never felt enough. Good enough. Pretty enough. Christian enough. Whole enough. Smart enough. Ready enough. It’s a struggle. And I know I am not the only one who struggles with it. We don’t feel enough so we fill ourselves, our lives with cheap fillers. Trying so desperately to feel enough. As I type this out I am already seeing how God has worked this out. As I am on this healing journey, I have been praying and begging God to help me feel worthy, help me feel enough. And lately, everything I’ve been reading has been very much focused on “enoughness”. But not how I would have expected. In 1 Corinthians 2:3-5, Paul is admitting that he isn’t enough, that he was weak, and scared, and trembling. But he also is saying how he wasn’t relying on his own human wisdom or knowledge. But on Gods power. That stopped me in my tracks. I don’t have to be good at what God calls me to do, I just need to be willing and trust in Gods power. I don’t need to rely on myself to be enough. He is enough. Jesus is enough. I need to lay down my selfish pride and rest in His power. He wants to be enough for us. He wants us to stop striving to do it all for Him, but instead ask Him to walk along side of us and do it WITH Him. With Him, I am enough. He is enough. With Him, you are enough. Stop striving for enoughness, God has freely given it to you through Jesus. Demonstrate the Spirits Power and walk with Him in your calling. #shespeaksbrave #braveenough #purposedrivenlife
  • I’ve got a date with myself reserved for this Valentines Day and I have to say, I am perfectly ok with it. Learning to love myself again, to find my true worth (and Who it lies in), to value myself in a Godly, Christlike way has been something I’ve been working on lately. I’m not good at it and then trying to do so in a counter-culture way has been something I’ve really had to set my mind and my intentions on daily and even several times a day. Changing the toxic thought patterns and self-sabotaging cycle has been anything but easy. But God. God is good and I am grateful for His presence and strength along this journey. #shespeaksbrave #selflove #trueworth #womenoffaith #womenoftheword
  • 🎶If you dance with me Feel my heartbeat through your body to your feet If you dance with me Hold me in the dark now, until both your eyes can see And if it's you and me against the world If I'm your man, you’re my girl We'll win you'll see, if you dance with me🎶
  • Read it again. Just let it sink in a little. We all have a struggles. We all have our challenges. The things we go through without explanation. But when we pull our strength from Him, he has given us everything we need to get us through those circumstances and struggles in a way that brings Him glory. When reframing your mindset out of fear and into freedom, remember, God has made available all that we need spiritually through our knowledge of Him. Study his word, deepen your relationship with Him, get to know him and he will guide your heart out of fear into a life given freedom. #shespeaksbrave #stillirise #nothingtoprove #fromfeartofreedom
  • Comeback. My word for 2020 was going to be comeback. Mostly because after a few tough years of survival mode I am more than ready for a comeback year. The driven, ambitious, stubborn part of me wants to push and hustle and grind. And I already know, because that is who I am, I will push and hustle and grind. I will comeback, every day, I’ll come back fighting for a better day than the day before, a better me than the day before. But this last month it has become apparent to me that on top of the hustle and push and grind and grit, more than needing to comeback I need to learn to BREATHE. I need to learn that rest is necessary, that healing is found in the slow not the push. I need to learn to not pack every second with productivity but intentionality and stillness. It is a given that my life is busy and full, but in the slow times I need to learn to quiet myself too and BREATHE. So, I’m that my word and focus in 2020 is to Breathe. How exactly this is going to look, I have no idea. In 2019 I learned to be brave. In 2020 I will learn to breathe again. #shespeaksbrave #stillirise #nevertheless
  • I’ve been in survival mode for so long. I took numbness for healing. And then survival mode slowly dissipated and healing began. I never understood how healing could be messy. I thought the emotions were gone, but when the numbness slowly lifts I find myself caught overcome by emotions. And they come from all directions. Happiness, and anger, guilt, sadness, gratitude. Sometimes it’s just one. Sometimes it’s all of them. They leave me curled in a ball, unable to move. I’ve learned more than ever that movement is more important than motivation. That stepping out into the brave of vulnerability and action is needed when you can’t get out of your own head. I am told this is healing and growth. Not stuckness. That allowing myself to feel and take things slow is what is necessary to get through this season. That the pain of growth and healing is worth it as opposed to the constant pain of numbness as you only continue to go through the motions of life without letting yourself truly live. But it hurts friend. Healing hurts. Sometimes it feels more than you can bear. But during those times, remember you have a savior who promised that His strength was made perfect in our weakness. So lean in and lean on Him. He’ll walk you through if you let Him. #shespeaksbrave #womenwithambition #livebravely
