Changed In A Day

I sip essence from a black and white tea cup
[black and white subsided]
wondering how easy and light it can be
to box up my hope and seal it with a bow
as September becomes October in a day.
Listen to
all the Silence has to say,
and obey,
for enjoyment is pleasant after so many grey days.
All that easy and light remains.

I rest in Living Hope.
I rest.

Finding Lost Things

A few months ago I felt compelled by the Ruach (Spirit) of God to watch the original Tinker Bell movie (via Netflix). Lying in a borrowed bed and sipping night coffee, I watched the story of the little fairy, born of a baby's first laugh, who finds herself in a circle of enchantment: the beginning of her journey towards self discovery and thriving in her true identity. She is to be given her name and her talent, and Queen Mary answers her doubts that she'll be sure to know her talent because it will choose her. When the "tinker" talent radiates a glowing knowing of the life-work Tinker Bell has ahead of her, she still has many doubts. As I watched the little fairy try to do  her fairy friends' talents and fail, I saw her disappointment and discouragement grow as she attempted to live out others' callings and push her own aside. Her friends could see the gifts and creativity, the incredible abilities Tinker Bell had been given (in fact, the tinker tool glowe...

Happy New Year!

As 2017 ends and 2018 begins, I spend some time in reflection, as has been my pattern to do, in order to envision what might be coming for me in 2018. It's only the third day of the new year, and I'm already overwhelmed at the goodness and grace I've encountered, with ever more expectation and hope and excitement to come! 2017 was a BIG year of breakthrough for me, and one of my main learning points from the year was that intentionality produces fruitfulness. I purposed 2017 as my Year of Soul Care, and each month, focused on a theme or intention. I worked hard pursuing holistic health and wellness, and today I declare that I am more alive, thriving and flourishing in holistic health than ever before. My monthly words may just seem like words to you, but when I list them out, I see in each one deep revelation, a road map from my journey of transformation from darkness to light: Remember Flow Roots Abundance Joy Strength Trust Power Hope New Life Celebrate Peace ...

A Rich and Satisfying Life

What does “Being Rich Waterfall” mean? “See, I have written your name on the palm of My hand…” Isaiah 49.16 At 18 years old, a spiritual baby, these were the first Words of Life that I buried in my heart and remembered. Learning that my biological name, Jessica, had been engraved deeper, more permanent than a tattoo, into the very HAND of the Creator of the World, compelled me to know God and pursue knowing Him. I’m approaching the 9 th year of this pursuit, and only swimming the surface of knowing who this God is. I consistently fall in love with this God-Person, Who has actually been pursuing me since before I ever looked His way. ‘Jessica’ is both a Hebrew and English name meaning rich . It also means God beholds ! God sees me. God observes me. He knows me. He loves me! Despite my many failures and shortcomings (doubts, fears...), I find deepest comfort in this spiritual pursuit, journeying through grace and strength in the knowledge of God. My middle name, Lynn, is Americ...
