The Third Hardest Things-Fail/Succeed Part 2

"What if I fall? Oh, my darling but what if you fly!"

I absolutely love this quote. I've seen it posted lots of times. It's often accompanied by captions that have encouraged and inspired me but I often find myself thinking… yeah the flying bit is cool but what if I do fall?

Candis says, Last week we talked about failure/success and what it means in terms of how we are moving with God. This week we are talking through the scriptures and what the WORD tells us about failure and success. As we are reading and sharing each one -- ask yourself how this is showing up in your life today? And what is the TRUTH the God is saying to you? It is time, today, to stop living in the safe zone and move in what we are being called to do. Fear Aint In This House!

Theresa says, Neither our successes nor our failures define us. It's our identity in Christ that defines us. Knowing who we are in God and trusting Him completely will allow us to be fulfilled, content and to remain stable; whether we are experiencing the highs of life or the lows.

Yes, we will be okay. Yes we can be fulfilled! Let's get ready to Soar.

This week's question

Do you have a dream that your've been afraid to pursue

Application-

Today take one specific step towards reaching your dreams.

Jounral your process.

Shalom Sisterfriend.

1. Can you think of an occasion when you unintentionally offended someone, and you were totally shocked when you heard how he or she perceived what you said or did?

2. Have you ever been offended by someone, only to find out later that the person never intended to offend you and was genuinely sorry when he or she found out how you felt about it?

3. What do you think is the most mature way a person can respond when he or she is tempted to get caught in the trap of offense? How do you think you should deal with a potential offense when someone hurts your feelings or lets you down?

You are not alone in this! Always make the choice to seek him and his guidance.

How about you? I’d love to hear what you think about this topic and how you are choosing to be unoffendable in your own life. Please feel free to leave a comment below, or to contact me directly.

Do I proceed or do I wait?

When sitting at the stop line, I anxiously await a red light to turn green and give me the go-ahead. When cruising towards an upcoming intersection, I tense up at the sight of a yellow signal, as I am forced to instantly determine if I can stop safely or if I should proceed with caution.

I wonder if God sometimes chooses to act like a set of traffic lights.

Sisterfriends, Get those journals!

For instance, how often do we want to say or do something despite our conscience telling us otherwise?

When you think about the goal behind a signal they are used to give information about something. More than likely an instruction. This instruction is to keep up safe, to guide us and keep things moving. How does God signal you? How is God showing up in your life to tell you when it is time to proceed and when it is time to wait?

This week we are discussing how God signals provide us with everything that we need, exactly when we need it.

This week- search your heart to see if you are waiting on God with intergrity or taking the matters into your own hands?
