Don’t Give Up

Posted on by

I messed up. I mean really really messed up.

It’s one of those times when I took a long hard look at myself and saw my outright mess, rebellion and disobedience staring me face to face. How could I let it get to this point I ask myself?

Regret, shame, guilt, condemnation weighed heavy on my mind.

Ugh.

Can you relate? Have you ever had these same thoughts and feelings?

What do you do when you struggle with these kinds of emotions? Feelings that tell you how awful you are? Do agree with them? Do you have strength to fight them off? If you agree with these demeaning feelings, you’re only going to sink deeper and deeper in the pit of shame. But how in the world do you not allow these thoughts and feelings to control you?

This whole “feelings battle” is something that we will deal with our entire life. It is a war that never goes away and that is why we must learn how to fight it. To know how to fight effectively to win a battle it takes training. Also knowing the opponent you are fighting is key. It is when we don’t know who we are fighting that we are in great danger.

Recently after engaging with this “feelings battle” yet again, I found myself sinking quickly into that pit of shame. In the midst of all my emotions I allowed myself to wallow in them. I knew it was not a good place to be. After about 48 hours of letting myself agree with my feelings and sink deeper into the pit, I noticed even while in my misery I was still putting one foot in front of the other the whole time. I was fighting the battle even though I felt like I was falling deeper.

How was I actually fighting? I kept pursuing God through His word. It was not easy, and I did not immediately “feel” better. I still felt a heaviness of regret and shame through the process. But I did not quit. As I continued moving forward while feeling weighed down, God began showing me clearly, He was here with me every step of the way.

Text message, after text message were unexpectedly popping up left and right. Friends, mentors, clients, and even strangers were speaking life into me. They were speaking the very words of God to me to remind me that God loved me, and He was proud of me. God showed me through them that He was still using me for His divine purpose even in the middle of my mess. He showed me that His grace and forgiveness was irrevocable. That is what the blood covenant is all about.

Dear reader, I share this with you today to first encourage you. Don’t give up on yourself. God loves you and He will never reject you or give up on you. Extend the same love and grace to yourself as He does. Secondly, always remember you are in a battle and the enemy is sneaky trying to still your joy. Do not give him a foothold. Continue to fill your mind with truth every single day. READ THE BIBLE. Find ways to incorporate more scripture throughout your day. For example, download a bible app such as YouVersion on your phone that will notify you with a scripture verse for the day or place scripture around your home. Building a stronger intimate relationship with Christ doesn’t come by chance, it takes intention, but the rewards are far greater than anything you can dare to ask or imagine.

TAKE ACTION: Take the next 5 minutes to add scripture to your life. Place scripture around your home, download a Bible App or replace your phone screen saver with a verse. It’s the little things that will help you renew your mind and create deeper intimacy with Christ.

Seeing Jesus

Posted on by

How do you see Jesus? When you close your eyes, how do you visualize our teacher, our Rabbi, our healer, our friend, our King, our deliverer, our Savior?

For as long as I can remember when I think about being in the presence of Jesus, I see us walking together outside and taking time to sit down for an intimate conversation. He’s in a soft white robe. He has a radiance about him. Often times he takes me in his arms and hugs me with an indescribable love. His smile speaks a thousand words. It’s contagious. His eyes sparkle with joy, compassion, gentleness, and excitement. It’s like I’m looking into a deep sea of love.

When I’m with Jesus I feel loved. He is proud of me. He is overjoyed with every detail about me. I am perfect when I’m with him. I don’t need to change anything about me. When I’m settled in this place with Jesus, I am the most confident. I don’t question my value, my worth, my abilities, my purpose, or my life.

In the presence of Jesus, I rest.

It’s vital in growing our relationship with Christ that we take time to intentionally connect with Him visually, that we see Him with the eyes of our heart. Ephesians 1:18 tells us, “I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people”. This gives me unshakable confidence in myself and my identity when I see Him through the eyes of my heart.

I want to invite you today to set a timer for five minutes, close your eyes and spend time with Jesus. Be sure to have a journal nearby so you can write down anything you see or hear Him speaking to you. This is a great way to begin dialoging with God. And even if this is something that you’ve never done before or you think it’s not for you, I challenge you to go for it! You just might be surprised how Jesus shows up. He’s ready to meet with you friend. Enjoy building a deeper intimate relationship with Christ!

I’m still in shock this happened … Taking Revival to Iowa

Posted on by

I literally start to cry every time I think about what happened at Adult & Teen Challenge in Colfax, Iowa on July 13, 2019.

Dear friend, no matter what you are doing right now in your life, please allow my testimony to give you hope that GOD HAS A PLAN FOR YOUR LIFE to do great works for His kingdom. Never in a million years would I have thought my family would get to be used by God to demonstrate miracles, signs and wonders through the power of the Holy Spirit in baptizing over 200 precious lives.

Please listen to the above conversation with Brandon Avalos with Ascended Life Ministries. There is so much wisdom from Brandon. I encourage you not to take these words lightly. Take notes and ask God what He is calling you to do in this very season of your life. Time is short friends and we must steward it well.

Take My 2 Minute Challenge

Posted on by

“You cannot have a positive life and a negative mind.” – Joyce Meyer, Battlefield of the Mind

As your life coach I want to challenge you from time to time to get outside of your comfort zone and try new things. I love the quote above from Joyce Meyer. Isn’t it so true? We are what we think. When we agree with who God says we are, we live full of confidence, full of life, full of joy, full of peace, full of victory. We live from a place of overflow! But boy oh boy, when we agree with anything less than who God says we are life is a mess. We feel defeated, depressed, insecure, fearful, lonely, less than … we feel just an absolute mess! So my friend I want to set you up for success to live a positive life by encouraging you to take my 2 minute challenge.

It’s very simple. Grab your cell phone and set your timer for 2 minutes and then read out loud the below text. (Read slow enough to fully absorb these truths.)

Are demons real?

The book I discussed in the video is Truly Free by Robert Morris and the video series is called Free Indeed. I highly recommend watching the entire series. It is life changing. Below is the first video of the series.

5 Excellent Benefits to Experience Coaching:

1)   Clarify your values, goals and purpose.

I believe we must have a clear direction for our life.  We are so easily distracted by our fast pace lifestyles that it is easy to have a blurred vision of where we want to go or what we really want to change in our life. Coaching will give you clarity to identify your values, goals and purpose.

2)   Balance

I believe in order to find a balance in our lives we must remove energy drainers.  Sometimes it’s hard to identify on our own what is really draining us on a daily basis. Once we remove these obstacles we can naturally achieve more balance in our life.

3)  Perseverance

I believe to have the ability to sustain our goals we need a plan that is simple to repeat to keep us moving forward. Perseverance is all about the baby steps!

4)   Accountability

I believe it is so much easier to accomplish goals when we are accountable to someone.  Making a commitment to someone other than ourself typically gives us just enough fuel to keep moving forward to achieve great things.

5)   Prevent Backsliding

I believe we will encounter unexpected challenges. When we do not get the support we need it is so easy to postpone or delay our goals. The accountability you receive during coaching will prevent backsliding and give you enough stamina to persevere in moving forward in your goals.
