this summer has looked different than i planned. i would have never thought that it would have played out this way. that i would still be unemployed at the end of july. but even though this has been some of the hardest few months, they have been more rich and filled than anything i could have imagined. here are some of the lessons i have learned:
- the power of praising while we wait
- there is no “in between” with God
- authority comes from intimacy
- intimacy grows in the wilderness
- everything He does is for our freedom
- no matter where you are, you’re getting something done
- there is no higher calling than the one God invited you into
- saying yes in the secret place builds friendship with Jesus
- scarcity is a lie
- He hasn’t forgotten the dreams in our hearts
- Eternity measures success in relationships
- He is better than we think He is
- you can get your hopes up
- He knows exactly where we are
- stewarding what’s in our hearts & on our lives bears lasting fruit
- celebrating with others brings freedom
- we can trust Him with our hearts
- if He said it, He’ll do it
- He is spinning over me in delight
- good is the enemy of greatness
- He turns our disappointments into a dance floor
- we work & live from delight, not for it
- ministry is out of an overflow of relationship
- if the enemy can’t keep your heart from burning for ministry, he’ll use your ministry to burn you out
- the only time you’ll find God in a box is when He wants to be where we are
- bravery is walking straight into fear & pulling on confidence that doesn’t exist in our human mind
