2021 is Winding Down

Only a few more weeks to find out the true transformation that has taken place during this year.

What have the trials produced? It is really true that hard things that we go through will make us stronger in the long run. Even if it’s not something that we want to hear or even think about. Life is just not always going to be smooth and easy on this earth.

Some seasons will be smoother and more joyful and others will feel like trudging through quicksand. One thing is for sure, they both pass. They do move on to the next season.

It was quite unbelievable that today there were several “suddenly” things that happened. Like several things that were just amazing miracles. An auto that had been sitting in the back yard that sold. A grandchild that had been suffering a heart defect healed. My husband told by the Veteran’s Administration that they were doing a back pay on all money that he had spent on medication back to a certain point! And last, all of his tests came back great after having Covid earlier this year.

Last week I was seriously starting to feel like things were getting hopeless. That is ALWAYS a lie! Things are NEVER hopeless, no matter what! The battle is usually in our mind and lies that we believe. If we are not feeling well, we are a little more vulnerable for falling for lies. Falling into negativity is a slippery slope.

There are many things to look forward to in our lives. Picking out the word for 2022 is something I look forward to. That’s a tradition for me… I’m thinking about my word now but haven’t settled on it 100% yet. One thing that I do know is that Marty and I have been reinvented this year and the main thing is eating more healthy. I think we’ve had some mindset changes also. We’ve had many things be a SLOW process when we would have liked to move a little faster… that’s okay though….sometimes:

I remember about thirty years ago hearing Joyce Meyers husband making that remark at one of her conferences and it stuck in my mind.

That has seemed to be a true statement this year about many things. I don’t think I have ever had this certain thing hit home as much as it has this year. It’s seemed like all of the things that used to work in the past changed and there were new rules to the game and I had to adjust.

I am adjusting and I am moving forward. One thing that I will not choose to be and that is stuck. Whatever I have to go through to be unstuck will work for me.

The next few weeks I’m praying and seeking my word for 2022 and I’m dreaming about the days ahead and seeing what God wants to happen in my life next year. I’m closing out the transforming that took place in 2021 and I’m grateful for the wonderful miracles that all happened in one day this week.

•We never know what can all turn around in just one day!

•We can’t listen to lies in our mind…we have to fight for truth!

•Reach out and talk to someone if you are sinking, we are never really alone!

•Do you have a word for 2022? Sort of a theme for your life next year?

•There is ALWAYS hope no matter what!

•I’m here if you need me!

See ya’ll next week!

Focus

There are many voices fighting for our attention today. Because I am in the place of helping people get healed of trauma, I have to be focused.

I have to be focused on my Father❣️ My Father in heaven that is. My Father that is placed above all things in heavenly places.

I have to spend time with His presence which gives me peace. I have to read His ancient words that bring me peace!

I have to stay away from anything that would condemn me because that’s not His voice. There may be things that sound like that in His word but that is not my Father’s heart speaking to me.

This is what He’s speaking to me right now:

“That evening, the disciples gathered together. And because they were afraid of reprisals from the Jewish leaders, they had locked the doors to the place where they met. But suddenly Jesus appeared among them and said, “Peace to you!””
‭‭John‬ ‭20:19‬ ‭TPT‬‬

That means PEACE to us right now! That is what I am supposed to be helping people receive in the earth today, “Peace!”

I have to stay away from certain things right now in conversations like prejudice, politics, hatred and such because I am a conduit of Peace!

Whatever we go through in our life leads us to our identity and destiny! My life has had me in a place of loving the ones that seem to be marginalized! I can’t fit in the other boxes! I’ve tried! But that’s not my identity!

It’s taken lots of focus to not get pulled into wrong thinking and ideas. I’ve also had to come to the place of more confidence! Everyone is entitled to their own opinions and deserve just as much love as people that share my opinions!

This isn’t always the norm today. It’s become my norm and I’m helping others have it as their new norm! Boxes are boring anyway! I urge you to get out of boxes and find your identity!

Identity is freedom and powerful! If you’d like to learn more, connect with me and we can help you handle things in your life.

Love never fails❤️

Boxes are boring❣️

Our lives matter❣️

Our voices matter❣️

Don’t give up❣️

Live life with purpose❣️

See you soon…jill 🌸
