It’s very much a needed process for hermit crabs to hide in certain stages of development. So if you find yourself going through seasons of withdrawing from others to spend intimate time with God, don’t allow society or others make you feel ashamed for this. Jesus often withdrew to get away from the crowds.

My mom often wrote about her breast cancer journey, and helped countless others along the way. This evening I found one of her old posts before she died and her words bring such healing to me.

The life of Moses provides us with a beautiful picture of what we should aspire to be in our own personal and professional lives. God outlines for us multiple times in the Bible why He loved Moses so much and I outlined 20 characteristics and qualities God gave me during time spent with the Father.

Many of you are moving from the back of the line to the front!!!! You will suddenly accelerate in areas that have held you back in prior seasons and you’ll swiftly be catapulted to the front of the line in an instant!!! For many years prior to this Kairos season, Jesus asked you to simply “follow me” and you did with obedience and discipline. You didn’t expect anything in return and just trusted Him through the journey. Then in a moment when you will least expect, God will call you from the back to the front!!!

Each February, during my birthday month, I always take a solo trip with the Lord. He always meets me there and this year we traveled to the beautiful island of Aruba. Something extraordinary happened this year though. God reminded me of my mom’s final birthday with me before she died.

Some of you are called forward in this season to go from the back of the line to the front. You are called to make an impact this generation, yet just like Moses, fear has blinded your faith. We can lean on the story of Moses to understand how God often sees our gifts.

Get ready to walk into your God-appointed destiny and birth the dreams Jesus deposited within you. Sometimes God will send others to speak and confirm purpose over your life. These messages will often arrive in the most unlikely moments when we don’t have the vision — or heart — to even receive from Jesus just yet.
