From Striving to Soaring

I am loving the journey and the study that I have chosen for this season of my life and it is massively impacting WHO I AM as well as HOW I LIVE. My latest thoughts have been about BEing rather than DOing. As a Christian, I have been brought up to DO the right things, SAY the right things and THINK the right things. And for the most part, I have lived like this by disciplining and controlling myself and it has been OK.

Well, over the past few years I have been learning about the importance of knowing WHO I am and that BEing must come before DOing. And just in the past few months, this revelation has grown in me deeper and wider and higher thanks to Sharnael Wolverton my essential oil Hero, Robert Stevens an author and speaker, my amazing leaders Mat & Renee Lansdowne and Andy & Dianna Piggot and so many more people and resources!

I received a prophetic song last month which says,
“I choose to soar, soar like an eagle. I quit all striving, flapping like a seagull.”
Not only was this funny, but profound. I had been watching a hawk that day and it was circling higher and higher for over a minute without any flapping. I was inspired. I wanted what that hawk had. I wanted to soar with grace and ease!

Now I am sure you all want to soar rather than flap. Everyone would rather choose grace and ease rather than striving right? Well what is the key? It is WHO YOU ARE! A seagull can TRY all day to soar without flapping, but it is not built to soar like an eagle. If you want to soar, you must choose to be an eagle. If your desire is to soar, and go to new heights and improve your health and live life more abundantly, then take heart, this is ALL possible when you CHOOSE to know WHO you are and WHOSE you are.

You are created in the image of GOD! You are creative. You are powerful. You are chosen. You are loved. You are blessed. You can choose to soar. You can choose to live with grace and ease. You can choose fun and joy everyday. That is who you are called to be and when you know that this is WHO YOU ARE, then you WILL SOAR with grace and ease!

I bless you with COURAGE to AWAKEN to who you are today.

You are an EAGLE.

SOAR
