It's okay to learn...

...from other people,
but when you start to emulate them,
you lose the unique way God created you.


Don't let anything hinder your growth and transformation.
Keep pushing ahead 
because there is more inside you than what you are
right now.

notes....

church group & 
friends who pray together
morning at the new (cute) dermatologist, who after an exam gives me an A 
and jokes that I'm boring...in the best way
Little House on the Prairie playing in the lobby
& Albert has a calf
a shade tree to lean on
leaves blowing in the breeze
a moment of pause near the pond
a place I revisit to be still and find peace
among the swans ducks and geese
~

listen to everyone with new ears

be on the lookout for something unexpected

do everything you can to have unshakable faith

surround yourself with people who know more
than you do

identify what continues to hurt you

allow God to shine the light on things
you'd prefer to leave in the dark

what you watch shapes you

you become like the people you watch and
a little less like yourself

it limits your ability to do things the best you can do

a day will come when you take a breath
and see through your own disguise

this recognition frees you from the shackles of
ignorance, lack, limitation, fear, doubt and worry

if your not growing
your dying

listen to the call of your heart

prayer will open your eyes so you can see 
who you really are
enabling you to see areas where you
need to change
 to be fully alive
and on the path of healing and wholeness

have some pauses
it's when you rest that the growth happens

your story isn't even close to being over
remind yourself of this truth
everyday for the rest of your life

as it all comes together
you will be able to look back & see your journey
& be grateful for all of it
good
bad and ugly
because it took all that to get you where
you where meant to be

growth is a natural process
make sure your head and your heart stay 
connected 

be well...
xoxo

"I know your situation, sacrifices, regrets, shame,
loneliness and pain.
I realize how hard you try, and I proclaim that what
you do out of love for Me is important.
So do not despair. 
Do not give up.
You matter profoundly to Me.
Get up, trust Me and keep going."
~Jesus~

"Travel light-
love will never weigh you down."
