Hi Reader,

I really am trying to get better at sharing what I sense with you quickly. Sometimes, like many of you I'm sure, I overthink what should be shared and what should be kept private.

But, in this season of acceleration, I'm realizing many of us need more sharing from those called to speak what they sense. So, here I am ready to share a moment that happened today.

Story time...

I stepped outside this morning for my normal time with God and I found my third oldest daughter sitting with her Bible, notebook, pens and a very serious look on her face.

The last few days, her and her older sister attended the Forward Conference here in GA, and had a divine appointment with some phenomenal carriers of the gospel, like Phillip Anthony Mitchell.

Since returning, my third oldest (this was her first conference experience) has been very introspective.

I decided not to bother her during her study time, finished a check-in call with my mom, did my morning stretches, then turned my back to her in order to give her some privacy, and for me to commune with God myself.

Something interesting happened though, I noticed my daughter watching me.

Studying me almost.

I smiled, because it's something special to be noticed by the people you love, even more so from someone you've been given stewardship of.

So, when her gaze lingered for more than a few minutes, I realized that she wasn't looking at me just to admire her mom 'cause I'm gorgeous, even in the morning, in my snuggie and house shoes, fresh faced and sipping coffee on the deck...

She needed something from me.

I decided to step in to the moment, turn around, and ask her how her study time was going. She explained, with a pensive face, and furrowed brows, that it was going good, but she had questions about some things that were shared at the conference a few days ago.

Some things had begun to stir in her spirit and she had QTNA - immediately 🥺

If you have a teenager or are in relationship with one, you understand the importance of answering questions any time they are asked (she's 16). I'm learning, now that I am raising my third teenaged daughter, those opportunities to pour into them feel very random, but also ordained.

So, I sat with her and we chatted.

What started as me listening turned into me prompting her to ask herself some tough questions.

Those questions felt very familiar and reminded me of something the Lord lifted to me a few days ago in my own personal study time that I want to share with you...

While talking with the Lord on the road traveling back home to Georgia from St. Louis, He lifted to me that I'd been in a place of circling. Not in the way you would think, like circling the drain, but in a way that says "everything you are studying in my Word is happening in real life."

"Everything I am showing you is showing up in your daily life."

And really, I began to lament. I even needed to call my best friend to help me make sense of how I was feeling. Like, I was really on the highway crying my eyes out, because experiencing pressure from God is a very real place.

It comes with many tears, many burdens, even exposure of what's really in your heart (come on Kingdom Woman Series - Motives), but also brings about such a clear picture of: wow, this is who God meant for me to be all along.

Fast forward to today with my third oldest, the Lord prompted me to have her write down a series of questions with an "I acknowledge" statement at the end.

This was completely organic, but is so like Holy Spirit to make it all make sense in just one small moment.

I want to share with you the words I spoke to her that she wrote down verbatim, and if these things resonate with you I encourage you to copy them down in your own journal and engage with Holy Spirit about it.

Q: Who am I? And what is God saying to me, about me - right now?

Q: How does what He saying to me, about me, affect my life nght now?

Q: When He tells me what He wants me to know about me, for my now, do I agree with what He said?

Now, after she wrote these questions down, I asked her to write this statement out underneath. This was for her to go back to after she was able to answer those questions honestly. And, I'm going to say the same for you.

After you answer those questions honestly,

Say This:

"I acknowledge that what He says to me - about me - about my now - directly impacts my next, and I choose to trust Him more than how I feel. I am probably going to disagree with Him about some things in my heart that He shows me, but that's okay, because I know that His way are higher than mine, and His love for me goes deeper than I can imagine."

Selah.

If you want to talk through the answers to these questions or need clarity on the depth of the Say This statement above, I encourage you to go deeper with me Reader.

You're not on the journey from pressure {the tension you feel in the space between where you are and what God has shown you} to fulfilled purpose {an arrival at God's pre-destined outcome in your life for this season} alone.

Remember, the pressure you and I feel is Heaven's expectation of fulfilled purpose for our lives.

Thanks for allowing me space to share a bit of my reflections with you.

Love you,
