Creating the Essence of God
I don’t know where you’re from and you don’t know where I’m from. I don’t know where you’ve been and you don’t know where I’m going. You see what you see based on where you’re from. The hidden things define what is ahead. I don’t decide for you when it’s time like you don’t decide for me when it’s time to go into the darkness to reveal what was done that’s defining your future. It’s our job to love without conditions, love without expectations and remember everybody has a story.

I wonder if you see what I see in this beautiful smiling child. She has a tenderness in her soul and confidence and trust that is growing. I love how she displayed her work in her family project for family rules. Her story matters.
This is one of the places that I truly get to say “I love my job and I am so honored I get to walk with families bringing hope.

Can you see them, they are right in front of you? Can they feel your desire for them above everything else?
“Connection Before Correction.” – TBRI®️
“Then little children were brought to Jesus for him to place his hands on them and pray, but the disciples rebuked them. Jesus said, “Leave the little children alone, and don’t try to keep them from coming to me, because the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” , After placing his hands on them, he went on from there.”
Matthew 19:13-15
There is more happening than what is evident with our natural senses… learning to abide fully in who Holy Spirit is allows Him to do His part with guiding you in this life. There are things we can’t see happening but He is already before you and following up behind you .
“God sends angels with special orders to protect you wherever you go, defending you from all harm. If you walk into a trap, they’ll be there for you and keep you from stumbling. You’ll even walk unharmed among the fiercest powers of darkness, trampling every one of them beneath your feet!”
Psalms 91:11-13 TPT
There is a time when choosing to follow “The Way,” your soul will learn how to get out of the way for The Spirit to lead. There’s a moment where the old no longer fits. It’s way, though comfortable and familiar isn’t what’s being asked in this season. It’s a paradigm shift. But you can’t have both the old and the new, they don’t fit together.
“He also told them a parable: “No one tears a patch from a new garment and puts it on an old garment. Otherwise, not only will he tear the new, but also the piece from the new garment will not match the old. And no one puts new wine into old wineskins. Otherwise, the new wine will burst the skins, it will spill, and the skins will be ruined. No, new wine is put into fresh wineskins. And no one, after drinking old wine, wants new, because he says, ‘The old is better.’ ” ”
Luke 5:36-39
The Way of Love is the New Wine. Sweet, bold, bursting the wine skin of the old way and flowing free within the confines of the new wine skin of Holy Spirit.
“The wind blows where it pleases, and you hear its sound, but you don’t know where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.” ”
John 3:8
There is more happening here than surrendering. Flowing freely in the New Wine means to submit your soul (mind, will and emotions) set it aside to let the Holy Spirit lead.
That space allows God to a be God. For that I am grateful.
