May dump 🤍
I felt like this month flew by and a lot of spring cleaning has been in the process, including with my hair (again!).
For YEARS I always wanted to try a short haircut but I never thought I had the body or the face structure for it. This lie came more to light when I was not my healthiest in 2020-2022. With PCOS, my face got very round with the high cortisol and a lot of insecurities came from that.
But I’m learning how to take more leaps of faith and be a good steward in the smaller things in my life before I get to the bigger things.
One thing about spring cleaning is that some times it may be simple like lightly sweeping or dusting the cobwebs away, and sometimes you’re doing some deep scrubbing and getting dirty. I can safely say that I was getting down and dirty with my own qualities and character, and doing a heavy pruning and reflecting.
I’m not sure if we ever stop to reflect on our why as we go through the journey. Is our why steadfast? Is it solid? Or do we forget about it along the way?
My “why” was looking back at me on many occasions this month:
At a conference I was a panelist on for
While I was on the phone with a friend ministering
When a stranger at an event asked me to pray for them
When these moments happened, it’s all for God’s glory and He reminded me that “the purpose I have given you is far more important than your insecurities, your fleshly desires, your ego. You must steward the small things well before I give you more”.
Can I get an AMEN?!
Some of this personal spring cleaning is exceptionally uncomfortable but I know that it’s all for my good and for the good of the people around me.
What does that spring cleaning look like for you and what’s your first step?
I encourage you to make a leap of faith and start in the smaller things and see how it changes your perspective, direction, walk, etc., but keeps you aligned with your purpose.
