God Needs You

When I was journaling this week, I asked God, “What do you think about me?” His response was filled with such loving and sweet life-giving words that it made me feel seen, chosen, unique, and very needed in the world. As He spoke to me through pen on paper, His presence overwhelmed me with peace.

I continued to write in my journal, and I knew the words were not only for me, but for YOU, yes YOU dear reader. I believe God is speaking to you as you read these words right now and this is what He is longing for you to know …

Your life matters. Your voice matters. Your words matter. Your story matters. I need you. I need you to use all your unique gifts to reach the people I’ve chosen for you to reach. I need every child of mine to use their gifts so that I can speak through them. Every voice put together creates my megaphone to the world!

Friend, do you hear that God needs you? He needs me. He needs us to be His mouthpiece to the world.

One-way God often speaks to us is through an echo. When we hear something over and over that is a way God is speaking to us. For example, when you hear a message from a pastor or leader and later you find yourself in a conversation with a friend and you hear them repeating the same thing, that is God speaking and confirming His voice through the echo of another.

If you’re anything like me, you’ve compared yourself to so many others in the world. I’ve had thoughts like my voice really doesn’t matter or look at how successful they are, little ole me is not “that important”. Can you relate? Well friend, that is just not true. Those are lies the enemy likes to whisper in our ear. The truth is, we do matter and God needs us! It is a great big world and God needs every single one of us on the battlefield speaking life and love into others.

So my friend, what will you do with this revelation? I want to invite you to grab a journal and ask God. Maybe begin by writing out one of these questions to Him:

God, what do you think about me?

God, what gifts do you see in me?

God, whose life do I need to speak into today?

After writing out a question to God, continue writing. He will speak to you. I recently finished the book Dialog With God: Opening The Door To Two-Way Prayer in my KINEO Ministry Training Class. I highly recommend it to learn more about journaling with God.

I pray this blog post excites you in your relationship with God and inspires you to connect with Him today. He loves nothing more than communing with you.

I’ve taken a break from writing blog post for a pretty long time but have felt prompted by the Holy Spirit (echoing over and over!) it is time to write. The purpose of my website is to be a place of love and encouragement in building a stronger intimate relationship with Christ. I want to thank you for being a part of this community at lindakuhar.com and I hope you’ll share it with others.

The Write Release Journaling Workshops: Your pen … Your paper … Your legacy

In 2007 my mother-in-law Judy passed away from a long battle with cancer. Everyone who met her felt like they had been in the presence of an angel. She always gave her full attention and listening ear to the person in front of her. Her compassion and unconditional love radiated in every word she spoke. The one word that fully describes who she was is selfless. She was the real hands and feet of Christ.

Judy left behind many things for us, but the most precious gift were her words written on paper. In her very own handwriting we can read at anytime how much she loved us. Her journal is priceless. No amount of money can buy someone’s dreams, thoughts, struggles, fears, faith, etc. – their heart. Journaling was a safe retreat for her to freely express herself. She learned about who she was and who God was in her life.

During her final days as I sat beside her bed examining her delicate fingers pondering all the blessings her hands provided, I was not sure why at the time I was so enthralled with such a seemly small part of an amazing woman. It wasn’t until I sat and read the words she had penned with them. Her journal expressed her everyday life … a gift for her and a gift for us.

Will you join me in the significant release that comes through guided journaling? It is powerful, it is authentic, and it is life changing. It is Judy’s legacy passed to you.

What is a journaling workshop?

It is a simple yet unique way to discover and embrace your true self while connecting with God. Journaling will help you navigate through your hopes, dreams, thoughts, feelings and any struggles you might have in life. It will teach you how to connect with God and hear from Him.

What clients are saying about working with Linda Kuhar~

“Upon first speaking with Linda on our introductory call, I found her to be completely genuine, attentive, and focused on what I was concerned with and how she could best assist me in reaching my goals. Linda made me feel completely comfortable speaking about anything, which is something needed when trying to get to some of those root problems. Throughout my sessions with Linda, she would always check in on me, encouraging me with daily devotions, and also give me some assignments which she held me accountable. I was very thankful for her accountability, as discipline is not something I am the best at. I looked forward to my weekly sessions with Linda, as I could tell my work with her was helping me become stronger each week. Not only is Linda positive and encouraging, but she is honest, and encourages you to be honest with yourself and do some self-examination. I am truly thankful to Linda for taking the time to help me through some things, and I thank God for bringing her into my life, just when I needed it.” Sara W., VA

“Linda is amazing! She’s genuine, the real deal! In each call you can hear it in her voice how much she genuinely cares & has a deep desire to help. She’s positive & uplifting, encouraging & supportive. Linda will even be the first to tell you that it all comes from God & not her, that she is God’s vessel being used by him to bring his words to you.” Tricia D., IN

“I gained clarity about my talents and priorities, and was able to regain a sense of serenity, which is priceless! I am so grateful that Linda was able to walk with me through a challenging time with kindness, empathy and humor.” Cassie C., NJ

“Linda has been an inspiration in my life. Her ability to genuinely love others shows in her communication and presence. She gives me undivided attention, by listening and never judging. Her words of wisdom are inspiring and motivating.” Steph K., NC

“What a blessing and an honor it has been to meet Linda. She helped me define, establish and finish some goals that were very important to me. What we accomplished in our sessions, were priceless information and Christian guidance that genuinely helped me finish 3 of my 4 goals. My fourth goal is an ongoing goal, and she helped me come full circle in my own decisions on how to make it happen.” Cathy F., TX

“I was not looking for a Life Coach. To be honest, I had no clue what a Life Coach was, let alone a Christian Life Coach. It was by circumstance and God’s blessing that I found Linda. What better way to heal and move forward than feeding yourself spiritually so you can then mentally and physically align yourself with what God has planned for your life. Linda, through God’s leading helped me step outside of situations and not get stuck in the pit that was calling my name. I love Linda’s gentle ways, her love for the Lord and her genuine heart that seeks to help others reach their God-given potential.” Trish C., NY

“I am so thankful God led me to Linda. Coaching is exactly what I needed at a desperate time in my life. I just felt so stuck and held back. Linda asked questions that had me digging deeper and she was always so encouraging and had me pressing forward always pointing me to Jesus. My time with her has been so special and I have a new excitement and passion for life.” Bethany G., PA

“Linda was a delight to work with by phone sessions as I prepared for a first time speaking presentation for 150 women at a church brunch. Once I prepared my content, Linda helped me fine tune it. Her insights on how to connect with an audience were invaluable. She helped me see God’s “big picture” of my speaking presentation so I could relax and take my eyes off myself, and truly minister to the women in the audience. The event was a huge success. Not just because my content was valuable, but because Linda helped me communicate in a way that reached women’s hearts.” Kay Long, AZ

“I love that after praying for a Christian Coach for a year God led me to you. I am amazed how he has knit us together, the bond we share and how this journey has brought me closer to Him. You have taken me so far this year in my journey with God. I accept your invitation to join you on the next leg of this journey. I’m looking forward to it.”Randi R., NY

“Sometimes the details of life get overwhelming. In these moments you need a compassionate heart and the words of God spoken into your situation. Linda has been granted these gifts and she displays them with grace and charm. My walk with Christ has changed completely while working with Linda. Not in a way I expected but in a way truly needed.” Joline D., MN

“I am so thankful that God directed my path to Linda Kuhar. I’m a pretty organized, type A, driven person and wasn’t real sure what benefit I would get from a Coach, but I was feeling restless in my business and knew that wasn’t a good place to be. For me, this was a great investment in money and time. Knowing that I was dealing with a “like minded” individual who was praying with me and for my business gave me the confidence that God was going to show me what to do next by clearing a path to move forward, or shutting a door where I shouldn’t go. Linda listened to what I was sharing and would point out different areas that she heard I may need to focus on or think about. I spent 4 weeks being coached by Linda and through her God shared “nuggets” that will last a lifetime.” Melanie S., FL

If so, I want to invite you to join in the Your Life Still Counts Study.

Or maybe, you just want to dig deep into God’s Word and focus on how much He loves you, and begin striving for the plan and purpose He has for your life.

How Your Core Values Keep You Accountable {and a giveaway!}

It’s so exciting to see how great everyone is doing on accountability this month. I love hearing from you. Thank you for all your emails. Your motivation keeps me motivated!

On a recent blog post I wrote, “Accountability oozes from our core values”. For example one of my core values is honesty. Because honesty is a core value of mine, when I tell someone I will do something, that means I will do it. That is why accountability works when it’s connected to my core values.

There are hundreds of core values. I would love to hear what your core values are in the comments below. Everyone who comments will be entered to WIN a special devotional book from Lysa TerKeurst, What Happens When Women Say Yes to God. Winner announced Feb. 28.

Here’s a list of core values to select from (but not limited to): Love, Obedience, Patience, Quality, Security, Inspiring Others, Family, Accomplishment, Trust, Recognition, Peace, Mentoring, Wellness, Loyalty, Service, Honesty, Humor, Integrity, Faith, Fun, Respect, Persistence, Community, Creativity, Encouragement, Order, Nurturing, Excellence, Courage, Honor, Joy, Authenticity, Elegance.

Journal with God: Write in your journal all of your core values. Reflect on the many ways God has used these values throughout your life as a gift to you and to serve others.

How To Love Yourself

2thepinkpeppercorn

Let’s get real here, every single person on this planet struggles with truly loving him or herself. I mean why in the world do we constantly numb ourselves with social media, food, work, alcohol, shopping, TV, Starbucks, fill in the blank________!

So how do we truly love ourselves?

Well, the first thing is to forget about following a “How To” step-by-step guide on loving yourself. If “How To” really worked then I would not be writing this blog post right now. Think about the millions of how to guides out there already.

Each one of us is a unique and special individual so what works for me might not work for you. However, there is one thing I’ve learned through many years of counseling and coaching that works every time.

Community!

What? How can community teach me how to love myself?

When we are around like-minded people we discover a sense of belonging that opens ourselves up to the possibility of acceptance {self-acceptance}, worth {self-worth}, and love {self-love}.

So what I would like to do is to invite you into a discussion on my blog today around numbing. What things are you using to avoid what you’re feeling?

I’ll go first! I eat carbs and sugars when I’m emotional! I’ll do a quick Starbucks run to give me a warm hug of comfort when I’m feeling sad. I’ll hop over to Social Media for a dose of comparison that will either puff up my ego or deflate it when I’m feeling insecure.

Ughhh! I did it! I shared with you some things that I’m not too proud of, but it’s out there. Now, will you join me in this discussion? What do you use to numb or avoid what your feeling?

Before we start this dialog, let’s pray the truth over our conversation.

Gracious Heavenly Father,

We stand together on Your divine word and claim it over our lives today. “Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. Romans 8:1” We pray for strongholds to be broken as we come together in a community and discover how to truly love ourselves as You have always desired before time began. We pray for no judgment from one another, but simply love. In Jesus Name we pray, Amen

I cannot wait to hear from you! Leave your comment below! ((hugs))
