Read MoreI went through
the root fear
we all face and
how we conquer that fear.
We delve into the role of love and fear and
our role as sons and daughters of God.
Why it's so important that we find
our true individual identities
in relationship with God, so that we can be
a stronger community.
If you haven't,
before getting into the actual trees, but
part 2 will still make sense if you don't.
The two trees we hear of in the garden of Eden were the
Tree of Life (#1)
and the
Tree of the Knowledge
of Good and Evil (#2)
.
Note,
it's not just "the Tree of Knowledge". I'm sure growing up you, too, were taught that when the Word said
"their eyes were opened and they knew they were naked"
, it meant they
suddenly knew too much; things they didn't know before.
Recently, however, God took me on another very visual, very vivid journey, to reveal
this new perspective.
(It is so true that no one knows the whole mind of Christ. It is beautiful that He gave us a lifetime of mystery and relationship with Him to learn it! So amazing, our God!)
All the knowledge we had was shrunk to knowledge of just good and evil.
In short, I've learned that the Knowledge of Good and Evil shrank the Knowledge of Life in it's Fullness to just black and white, good and evil, perpetual judgement. Get it?
Tree of Life, Tree #1,
revealed to us the
full range of colours,
the role of good and evil in the midst of the rest of life, and
the role of Love
in keeping everything else in place, in the 'right' roles. Perhaps this will help:
Tree #1 (Life) / Tree #2 (Knowledge of Good & Evil)
All colours (which make up white, coincidentally) / Black and white only (oh, and grey *sigh*)
All: good, evil, beauty, Love, growth, learning / Good and evil (and constant fear of falling)
Love keeping perfect balance, harmony / Perpetual judgement (fear of falling)

You see, Adam and Eve didn't not recognize evil because it was in it's place, when they had only seen Life to the Fullest.
They enjoyed what was good because by contrast evil shows us that good is good - that way good is never boring or 'status quo'. Remember, the enemy fell before they came - they always knew he was always there - but they (and he) always knew his place, until they submitted to him. That is why it's called the Fall. They, we (we would have done the same thing),
fell from the
Full Knowledge of Life
to the mere
knowledge of Good and Evil.
Good news!
This is why
Jesus Christ's
coming, our LORD and Saviour, is just that - salvation - because
He restored to us the capacity to see that, again.
Our gospel is that!
Hence, Love is His message!
God is His message! God is Love! We utter words and don't hear our selves. Try this: Say it out loud and sit with it -
God is Love!
Are you free now to walk in that?
A huge part of knowing the Fullness of Life, in Christ,
is knowing the place of Good and Evil in that Fullness. It is, then, that we begin living from a place of
restoring our Knowledge of the Fullness of Life.
That means dropping all that baggage - perfection, appearances, joggling balls, fears - and
choosing to walk (doing it, afraid or not) exactly as you truly are,
skeletons and all, right now. You will literally feel it physically: you breath more deeply, more slowly, your shoulders relax (or you finally realize they hurt! Lol), you stand straighter.
You simply are. No pressure.
No burden. You see,
we were not designed to carry all that weight.
That baggage is what came with the Knowledge of (only) Good and Evil.
That baggage is why death entered the equation. All that stress destroys us, and the enemy continues to deceive us into thinking
"oh, that's just the way it goes".
It doesn't have to be. It's why Christ revealed that it is this very body that will be transfigured. Why not start now? First, we have to accept and love our current selves, good, bad and other, before we can go any further. As long as you're holding on to all that baggage, your hands will be too full to walk out of that prison -
the prison you created after Christ died to free us from it.
This is what Christ died to give us.
That is
reconciliation with God
and
walking in Life Abundantly.
I know and honour the fact that this is not likely a perspective you've heard before. I just want you to know that. If you can see it, however, if this has awakened something in you or if it's put together all the pieces of a puzzle for you,
I'm honoured to have been a part of that.
If you truly lived this, being true to who you are,
where you are, at all times, then light will always shine on what needs to change or a new opportunity for growth.
Your truth will illuminate your next level of learning and growth.
As you explore that new area of growth
in freedom, love and faith
(instead of the bondage of doubt, fear of doing wrong and guilt/shame),
you will enjoy it!
You will enjoy learning
"wow! all the time I thought X, and God's revealed Y to be true."
You'll want to learn more, no? Making mistakes is a part of the growth process! Learning from experience rather than the words of others is a part of the growth process.
Being a part of your own growth process is relationship with God!
Your pastor, priest, mentor, counselor cannot have that relationship on your behalf.
You have to live it.
You need to love it, however, in order to keep wanting to do it!
Look back on your life.
We make mistakes and then we see all the "negative consequences" of our action and we think
"I'm paying for..."
Isn't that, technically, blasphemy, if Christ was supposed to have paid? Aren't we supposed to truly repent,
and know that it's been paid for?
Take a look at one mistake you made
that you can see the trail of "consequences" for. I'd like to invite you, now, to
look at that same mistake, and see what you've learned from it,
what good things came out of what you learned, what good things you've learned about yourself, and how you can use all of that to empower, encourage, others who perhaps have made the same or similar mistakes.
Can you?
I'll ask the questions from the image in

Write me or comment and let me know your thoughts?
I truly believe that as we discover our purpose in Christ, through relationship with Him, our lives will be the examples that empower others to do the same.
To those of you who've been following me consistently for some time, I'd like to say thank you for reading. You know that before 2014 the tone of my posts has been to
ask why, to encourage
and, at times, to
admonish us for hurting each other.
2014, however, was
.
God broke through so much fear, that now I see so much of it where I never saw it before in our Church. I'll get into that in today's post, but I'd love to hear your thoughts on my new direction.
[P.S.
actually gets to the trees. ;)]
This fear that God broke in me was
not the surface fears
- fear of man, fear of failure, fear of success, fear of unforgivable sin, fear of not being righteous, fear of not trusting God, fear of unbelief - the list is long.
Those are not the worst fears.
The fear that God dealt with in me is invisible until He shines His light on it.
It is fear of the unknown.
The surface fears above are somewhat knowable, but fear of the unknown is a greater obstacle, as the unknown can lead to ALL others!
Once God broke me free of it, it was all I could see in the Church (the body) around me.
Our sermons are so full of
"no", "the law"
and living within
a very small, but widely approved, box,
that none of us feel safe enough to
find out who we
individually are in Christ,
so that we can be
a stronger community.
The body of Christ is us. If we each have a purpose in Him, we will not all look alike. We cannot. Your stomach, baby toenail and lymph nodes do not, cannot, be the same if you are going to live. Why can't we understand that in the Church? It's time to stop holding hands with the enemy and singing,
"you're right, accuser, we'll just stay under this bushel and never shine, because you're right, accuser, it's vein, prideful, and will lead us astray"
! We're not 'wusses' in Christ!
We're sons and daughters of God in Christ!

I kept saying above that God broke me free of it, but the truth is
I broke free of fear in God's strength.
We can do nothing without Christ, but
He does nothing until we take that step in faith.
As soon as I said,
"enough! I don't know what this block is, but I'm over it!"
, He literally said
"Finally"
in a fit of immeasurable joy,
and opened my eyes to a host of amazing wonders!
It's like He could finally hold my hand and run with me!
I can keep up because I'm no longer heavy with fear! Don't you want that? Don't you want to know Your God on every level? Are you willing to take the risk and step out in faith to find out?
Do you trust Him to take care of you wherever you go?
You and I both know there's something holding you back.
If you're not shining, if you can't say the words "I love, love, love myself" and
ooze nothing but joy to overflow,
if you can't walk by different religions without feeling sad, then something IS holding you back and, perhaps, you don't know the power of Your God! Perhaps.
Fear is only conquered when we truly trust God,
when we love ourselves as He loves us,
so much so that we can't help but
share that love with others,
and teach them to do the same.
Darkness cannot exist when light is present. Fullstop.
Fighting darkness and fear is a waste of time and energy. Light! Be light, be love, focus on the good, and that will overflow to cast out the negatives.
Food for thought:
all those people we judge - 'backslidden' brothers and sisters, other religions, cult groups, sociopaths, criminals, other Christians with different perspectives -
can only be changed by personal encounter with God. Not a word you utter means anything without that.
Plus, you don't know enough to know that you're absolutely right about everything you believe, so stop worrying about it and stop fighting it.
Love them instead, but first, love yourself!
If it was not God's will that any should perish, why do we focus so on who will perish? Why don't we become, as individuals, a safe space for all to come and be, and be loved? Why don't we do that, our part in Love, and let God do His work? Let us focus on love and light. The details will be worked out by God. You'd be surprised to see true Serendipity, which is His.
Let me tell you what I've learned about Love - I'm still learning.
Love, not courage, is the opposite of fear.
That is why it is the gift that is above all others.
Love frees us so we can see more clearly.
We are not anxious, worried, distracted juggling multiple "what if" thoughts. We see clearly what is in front of us, even in some small part the way God sees, when we see in Love.
The battlefield is truly in the mind.
It is why the New Testament is so focused on
renewing your mind!
All the gifts in Corinthians - love, tongues, understanding, faith, knowledge, interpretation of tongues - are there!
It is the battlefield because
it is what we, in God's image, create with!
The
heart, mind
and
tongue
are what we're cautioned about, because they are the most powerful aspects of our being. The heart and mind both feed thoughts and feelings.
Our hearts and minds,
produce emotions (love and fear) and feelings (joy, sorrow, hope, anger).
Our tongues,
the words we speak, form the declarations and contracts we seal (with God or the accuser) to create what we see. We may want to, but we can't avoid the responsibility of being creators if we are made in the image and likeness of God.
If you don't wield your mind and heart, regardless of how much you say you surrender to God, the enemy will.
Surrendering to God is empowering, not oppressing.
The scripture
"I become less that You (God) might become more"
does not mean that you disappear. In the Holy Spirit, you'll learn that
'the old you becomes less, that the new you - in the true image of God in Christ - becomes more'
.
The manifestation of the part of God that only You can carry,
because of what He created You to be. So surrendering to God means freedom for You to wield your mind!
God has empowered you.
If you can't hold every thought captive,
use your feelings as an indicator
of whether or not your thoughts are positive. If you've surrendered to God, you have nothing to worry about. Good feelings - joy, peace, calm, contentment - come when we remember that we are righteous (even if not always right) in Christ. When you're angry, afraid, resentful, jealous,
what are your thoughts?
Now, beware that bad feelings were created by God (just as physical pain was)
to let us know when something is wrong. Don't ignore them,
but put them in their right place, deal with the cause, place your burden at God's feet and then turn your thoughts back to what is good.
Spend most of your time on the good.
Energy invested in negatives is energy positives don't have access to. Let it go, for your sake.
You see, you can't do any of this if you don't love yourself.
This is why I ask you to
choose - fear or love?
What you choose for yourself is what you will choose for, and impart to, others. You can choose. In terms of complexity, thoughts are the most difficult to manage. Feelings are easier, but still fairly complex if you're at work or in the midst of a task. Emotions, which actually chart the direction of our thoughts, love or fear, are easier to detect. If you can detect your feelings, do so. If your heart starts racing, you're not breathing deeply and it's not accompanied by a smile, perhaps your thoughts are infused by fear.
Turn it around. Infuse your thoughts with love.
You can choose to stop, make yourself breath - envision inhaling love and exhaling fear
- and choose to think, and put your energy into, good thoughts. "Nothing is too big for God, who has entrusted me to be right where I am right now, in Him", "things always work for good, for those who love God", "if there is power in my words, I declare that all is well starting now".
Think about the good thoughts that empower you, and think those.
That's why the Word is our sword.
Write your good thoughts for a week, and see what you learn about yourself!
You might empower others!
I think there's a lot to chew on here.
I'd love to hear your thoughts!
After you try this, listening to your feelings,
where I finally get to the
Trees in the Garden of Eden.
We've been taught
"
Sow a thought, reap an action; sow an action, reap a habit; sow a habit, reap a destiny
"
. I suspect that this proverb is found in teachings across cultures globally. The point is, like it or not,
we're not on autopilot.
If we want change,
we have to change our minds.
Renew Your Mind.
Medicine, science and your own experience (even if you've ignored it) have all made it clear that
your thoughts can heal or harm your physical body.
Thinking about things that
we fear will happen,
for example, creates feelings of
anxiety, anger, despair, self-doubt, depression and negative stress.
These cause heart failure, high cholesterol, high blood pressure and more debilitating unmentionables, which over time become chronic ailments. "The power of life and death lie in the tongue..." (
). If we already know all of this,
why have we done nothing to change it?
Thinking about positive things, things that
we want to happen,
our past miracles or good things that are happening at the moment, literally bring healing. The bible says that testimony builds faith. Faith brings joy. Your own testimony enhances the faith of others, yes, but it builds your faith as well. On a 'practical' level, if you will, when you feel joy,
you breathe deeper, your muscles relax, you have an involuntary smile and your heartbeat is less erratic.
All of this sends more oxygen to your brain, fosters cell repair, releases endorphins (that creates a 'happy loop') and reduces the stress on your heart, respectively. In miraculous terms, have you met a cancer survivor or someone whose tumor just disappeared? I have -
it rocked my world.
What do you want?
Restored health? Love? Financial freedom? More consistent inner peace? More supportive community? Why not
start thinking about what you want,
instead of what you don't want? I'd never thought of it that way, but I heard this guy, Greg Braden, say
"Who taught us to think about what we don't want instead of what we want?!"
It was suddenly so obvious what needed to change. Perhaps we won't track all our thoughts, but we can all stop to acknowledge how we feel, how we're breathing. Feelings tell you where your thoughts (conscious or subconscious) might be.
Let's start there.
Let's make this a bit easier.
At any given moment, we're dealing with a myriad of feelings. It's no wonder so many of us ignore our feelings! At the base of it all, however, our feelings are fed by one of
two emotions -
Love or Fear.
Fear is the opposite of Love.
Courage is merely a manifestation of love - ask most parents. Every feeling we have is rooted in fear or love. Now, it won't always be obvious what you're afraid of, or what you love, that's driving the feeling. You know, however, that negative feelings are driven by
fear, which holds you back,
and that positive feelings are driven by
love, which empowers you.
If you can believe that, which would you choose?
Positive feelings create positive outcomes because
we attract what we think about.
It may be draining to
"hold every thought captive"
(
) for examination, but
you are almost always aware of how you feel
- good or bad - even if you can't place a finger on how or why. If the cause of your 'bad' feeling is coming from within, then assess what thought(s) contributed to that, make it a positive thought. Look at "I hope I'm not late" as "everything is running smoothly so I'll be on time".
Note:
this does not advise that you are governed by your feelings, merely that you use it as it was designed to be used - as an indicator that something is amiss, or that all is well.
Food for thought:
Wars are borne of fear. Courage, as an element of Love, seeks to protect, defend. Love in all its elements (generosity, kindness, hope) finds a place for all.
[
Side bar:
I believe in intuition, so if you're feeling 'bad', look around first to make sure there are no threats. The threat doesn't have to be obvious. If your gut says move, then move. Regardless of how rude it may seem. Move.]
Globally, spiritual movements teach
"be specific when you ask"
; "no one who is double-minded receives from the Lord...ask and you shall receive"; "believe and then receive (stay open to) what you've asked for"
and
"if you can imagine it, you can have it";
believe and you can receive
"immeasurably more than you can imagine".
The point is, if you are to ask, believe and receive (
), you have to first
decide on what you're asking for
before you can see it (
). Trust that God orders your steps, particularly as you trust Him, in stepping out in faith, rather than fearing what can go wrong if you get what you want. If you make your decision from a place of love, true love, then you've automatically infused that decision with self-care while being considerate of those impacted by that decision.
Ask, commit to that specific "ask",
expect to receive it, then release it to God and go on living.
"Ask" essentially means praying.
The challenge is for us, as Christians, to get to the stage where we understand what God means when Jesus says "ask boldly". We must stop 'begging' in prayer, and walk as empowered sons and daughters in Christ. Once you decide to ask boldly, focus on positive words. Truly,
ask for what you want;
not for what you don't want. Asking for what you don't want brings to mind... what you don't want... and all the feelings that come with thoughts of what you don't want. It takes energy (brain space) away from thoughts of what you do want and the feelings that those thoughts come with.
Mother Teresa said she will not attend an "anti-war" rally, but she'd love to attend a "peace" rally.
Are you getting the picture?
"No"
and
"don't"
have no weight in our brains other that to
produce negative feelings.
Those words do not eliminate what follows, they merely attach a feeling to them.
What are your "ask" words?
Instead of "I don't want debt" or "I'm not in debt", perhaps say "I have a lot of money" or "I'm always in the black".
Note:
It is not a sin to want wealth to overflow when it is overflowing for God's glory. Money is only a problem if it replaces God in your life.
The present tense
also helps when you're asking.
"I will"
often, keeps us in the
"one day in the future"
frame of mind. That perspective doesn't drive us to get up and get, because
it's not a priority.
Speaking as though it already is,
puts us in a place to
expect, act, believe and receive, now.
We start preparing to receive it.
What will you do with it? Where will you put it? When will you have time to enjoy it?
We are conditioned to think that doing that means we're lying to ourselves; we're not. You want it and you're going to make it happen. Full-stop. Infuse it with love, and see what happens. (P.S. It helps to be persistent.)
Once I committed to changing my thinking,
all of 2014 was, to me, evidence that this is true. Essentially:
Stop! Stop the rat race, the "oh no" conversation and the "I really don't want" thoughts.
Breathe deeply. Choose not to rush and do just that for 2 minutes (the whole 2 minutes).
Dream. If 'reality' wasn't a ceiling, if no one could 'laugh'... What would you want? Expect it.
Feel. What would it feel like to have your dream life? What would you be able to do? See it.
Gratitude. Smile in gratitude for what you have now. Really feel it. Thank instead of Begging.
Plan. In that grateful mindset, what steps do you need to take to get to your dream? Write it.
Act. What steps can you take today? Take at least one step. Even if it's just to think positively. Start.
In all of this,
start with your mind.
Start everyday focused on
1-3 good things
in your life,
1 dream
and
what those things make you feel.
Hold on to that all day.
What do your words create?

Plan. In that grateful mindset, what steps do you need to take to get to your dream? Write it.
Act. What steps can you take today? Take at least one step. Even if it's just to think positively. Start.
In all of this,
start with your mind.
Start everyday focused on
1-3 good things
in your life,
1 dream
and
what those things make you feel.
Hold on to that all day, and
let Love drive your thoughts.
Successiory. Mindful Entrepreneurship business strategy for premium service professionals, introverts, women. Pricing. Process. Schedule (project management). Social media - Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook and more. Earn more. Work less. Serve better clients, better. Good-bye rat race. Hello Blue Ocean. Your E.A.S.Y. Affluence Business Model™ by Successiory.
Focused on encouraging you to know and honour your individual sovereignty, best-sellers (authored and co-authored) explore authenticity, self-acceptance, intuition that, inevitably, overflow. I also explore the feminine, for women who thrive best here.
Business books not yet published but in progress, initially intended to be about mindful entrepreneurship — pricing, process, feasible schedules for true creativity and productivity — will show up differently as I evolve. Quick tips and feasible practices for a lifestyle of flow and ease, rather than about business.
