Greetings Women of God,
We are almost halfway through this year. June is a great month to reflect and recharge. Here are some suggested prompts that help me along the way:
1. Have I drawn closer to the Lord through consistent study and service? If not, how can I improve?
2. Are my relationships with others mutually enriching and supportive? If not, what can I do differently?
3. Am I experiencing increase in every important area of my life? If not, why not?
4. What do I need to let go of? and/or change about myself?
5. What do I need to seek or strengthen in my life?
As I reflect and recharge, I am going to let June be a month of Joy, no matter who or what!
The Lord brings joy. Joy is only possible when the parts of you that you were unwilling to relinquish to the Lord are killed. The old self in you needs to die so the new self can breathe deeply in the new space with Yahweh. Allow Him to create within you a new space, a new self, and that is where your joy is. And when you choose to be with Me, says the Lord, your joy exists in the space where the two of us get to be together. And that place is within you, in your new self, and nowhere else. You are made to be with Me, and anything that gets in the way of us being together is a choice you get to make. Let Me in, and I will take care of it. Let Me in, and I will clear away the dark places of the old self to let the new self breathe. I do the work once you choose Me.
The psalmist said I will bless the Lord (Psalm 16:7; 26:12). Even when the circumstances scream "Where are You, God?" Cause your heart and mind to refocus on the many promises found in Scripture. Walk by faith and walk in the Spirit. Vision can be cloudy and flesh can try to rise. Remain steadfast, immovable, abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing your labor is never in vain in the Lord. Stay in His presence. In His presence is fullness of joy (Psalm 16:11). Allow a new song of deliverance to spring up from the depths of your communion with the Lord. The joy if the Lord us your strength. When you chooses Me, says the Lord, you choose joy!
Happy Blessed Birthday to all born in the Month of June!
May Zoom was cancelled. We will continue June 14 @ 9am as we discuss "Leading Change." What is change? Does anything need to change? How do I handle resistance to change? and Facilitating successful change.
