Last year the founder of Brave Hearted Ministries had asked me to write a blog about “Thriving as a Brave Hearted Stepper”. Can I just let you all know, what a tasking topic that was for me. As a matter of fact, the topic became the reoccurring question in my mind and in my heart. It caused me to ask myself the question constantly and consistently, are you thriving or are you just surviving? Is this something that is making you thrive or is it really draining you? You see, the first thing that I wanted to make sure to address was the fact that thriving isn’t an emotion. We think about thriving, sometimes, or maybe it’s just me, as a season of the best feelings and the best look, because thriving means to grow and blossom. Usually, those things happen in our spring seasons, and we encase the action of thriving to just those types of moments or experiences. But, let me venture down a different path and tell you that thriving is something that should happen in your life as you continue
Hebrews 11:6 And it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him. Hello Brave Hearted Steppers, Seeking God provides us a way to get to know who he is. How can you possibly serve a God you do not know? There is no absolute way! When we take the time to learn who God is and learn his characteristics and traits we learn who HE is and why we serve him. When you come before him with a heart that is eager to find him, you certainly will. Coming boldly before his presence already acknowledging that he is the GOD of all things just starts the process. Some people claim that since we can’t see God, finding him is impossible, and we shouldn’t waste our time seeking him. That is a huge lie from the enemy to detour you away from building a true relationship with the father. But, let me ask you something today. All throughout His Word God tells us to seek him. Why would God invite us to se
Hello Brave Hearted Steppers, No matter how you look at it - flourishing points back to growth. But flourishing like a Brave Hearted stepper points back to doing it AFRAID. 😱 I know that you’ve heard this phrase so often lately - but my question to you is - have you had to live this very truth out in your life recently, or at any point? Because growth always happens outside of your comfort zone. And to land there - you must endure the FEAR that comes with it. I know that I haven’t been the only one lately who has been challenged to reach beyond my own height or to trust beyond my comprehension. I know that many of us can relate - and maybe some of us are currently confronting this moment in our lives. Let me comfort you in saying - DO IT AFRAID. Because there is something that I want to make you aware of - and it is this - FEAR doesn’t mean void of the WILL OF GOD! I hope you heard that - and if not - let me say it louder for those people in the back FEAR DOESN’T MEAN YOU ARE VO
