Hello Heart Partners! HAPPY FALL, AUTUMN, or HARVEST! If you are like me, you are more than ready to welcome and usher in a new SEASON of CHANGE and TRANSFORMATION! Summer has it’s high points, but after living through heat and adventures, my heart turns toward the FALL CALLING to transform again! Isn’t that just like our FATHER to call us higher, deeper, and wider into living HIS purpose in every season? I love YAHUAH’S reminders that ALL SEASON’S of our lives are in HIS control even when we don’t perceive it! Remember in Genesis 8:20-22 after Noah built the ARK, and loaded it with the animals… “Yahuah said in his heart…I will not curse the ground anymore for man’s sake; for the imagination of a man’s heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite everything living, as I have done. 22 While the earth remains, seed time and harvest, and cold and heat, summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.” Then my heart jumps to Daniel 2:20-22 “Daniy’el answered and said, Blessed be the name of ELOAH forever and ever: for wisdom and might are his: and HE changes the times and the seasons: he removes kings and sets up kings: he gives wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding:22 He reveals the deep and secret things: he knows what is in darkness. And the LIGHT dwells with him.”
Can YOU hear HIM calling us to turn, reflect, repent, change, transform? I hear HIM in the message of Rosh Hashanah, and soon Yom Kippur! If we look at the changing of season on HIS timetable, HIS choices for us, we can rise to the occasion and say like ISAIAH in 6:8 “Also I heard the voice of ADONAI, saying: whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I: Here I am; send me.” Will it always be a call to GO…no I don’t believe so, but I do hear YAHUAH saying, Will YOU go MY WAYS, live for me no matter what it takes? My heart skips a beat…and a resounding YES pours over my lips! As I type I am listening and singing Psalm 51…but specifically verse 10 “Create in me a clean heart, O ELOHIYM, and renew a right (steadfast) Ruach within me.” I call out to our Father with an OPEN heart to transform with HIM in this new season of AUTUMN, and to remain STEADFAST in all HE has for me!
Let’s get practical…what will this mean for each of us? Well it’s going to be different from person to person, but one thing remains TRUE…YAHUAH is for us and never against us, so we can release our HURTS, FEARS, DISAPPOINTMENTS and fall forward onto HIS new path before us! Or can we? Always good to be honest with our Father…I know for sure we are living right now…in His perfect timing and circumstances…even if we are being stretched, or are simply exhausted! We are exactly where we need to be to be USED by HIM and for HIS eternal purposes! So, are you ready?
Do what works the best for you…make a list, journal, type, or record all that YOU need to forgive, settle with YAHUAH, including others and yourself! HE HOLDS NOTHING AGAINST YOU, so don’t let anyone else do that to you! Apologize, forgive, love, and fall into HIS arms when the pain, sorrow, anger try to creep in! YOU belong to the ONE TRUE KING, and YOU can TRUST HIS heart for YOU! Remember and hold onto Psalm 103:12 “As far as the east is from the west, so far has HE removed our transgressions from us!” So, no need to dwell any longer…if you have made things right with YAHUAH…HE is all that matters! You can try with people, and I encourage each of us to try, but always know they have to make their own choices! One thing I have learned over the past 19 month journey is that holding unkind things, negative thoughts, or pervasive thoughts (not taking them captive) only KEEP ME or YOU the PRISONER! NEVER EVER WILL THAT BE HIS HEART FOR YOU or ME! Shall we let it all go? Let’s do it together because we will always be BETTER TOGETHER! Let’s take the words of Yahusha…Matthew 11:28-30 The Message “Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.” WOW! Do you perceive His LOVE and great rescue for each of us? How about RECOVER YOUR LIFE? Oh I am standing on HIS word and words…KNOWING Yahusha absolutely cares for me and YOU! Let’s be BRAVE and believe that HE will help us to live FREELY and LIGHTLY as we keep company with HIM!
I am super ready…and if you want a hand to hold…I am here to hold tight and fall forward into HIS new FALL for each of us!
I ask OUR FATHER now to speak deeply to your tender heart, whether you feel perfect or broken, or undeserving…HE IS HERE…right inside you! LET go, surrender and TRUST HIM!
Sending you LOVE, and HIS LIGHT for your FALL journey!
SHALOM,
DanaKae
