Being Passive Is a Discipline

This post is from Rebecca Trotter, fellow Odd Duck, my sister, my best friend, fellow author, a Great woman of God who has much to teach the world. Especially about humility and grace under fire. Enjoy, I know this is the food we all need. Rebecca and I, for almost a year now, have been...

Disciplines of Christ

"The words I speak are not my own " Jesus said and I get that. So much to say but when I write it's never about my need, my want or even what I think. It's the word of the Lord I feel, taste, smell, touch, moving around alive in me.  Jesus became the living...

Fixership Is Not Relationship

Fixership is a form of religion, not relationship. A person with a Fixerships mentality cannot enter into the true biblical and kingdom version of relationship with anyone outside of their kind of people. They will tell you, "You are Valuable." In religion, they will tell you Jesus paid the price for you. But to them personally,...

Machine, Soil, Glory, Flow

It has not been very comfortable obeying God these last few weeks. How many know He stretches us. Feel out of alignment? Ya, you should. God's not static. He's always moving when He shifts hard right you may or may not shift hard right. Depends where you are in the machine. Are you a gear,...

Mountain of Love

Floating In the arms of love I know you don't lead your sheep to the slaughter. I know those before me heard the words You don't hear God too. You're going the wrong way Noah said. He sounded probably as foolish as I must sound. Oh Lord give me grace and mercy Give me endurance,...

The Difference Between Kind and Nice

God finally taught me the difference between Kind and Nice. He showed me nice is surface. Examples in and out of the church sound the same. I love you. We're behind you. God loves you. You're family. That's as deep as it goes. It says it values. It's pretty - the surface - but the...

5 Fold, Inside Out

Been really contemplating the Macro 5-fold so much lately. I don't look at what's wrong. I don't watch tv read newspapers or do news. I listen to God love the person in front of me and I look at what's right, but as I look at a world in chaos I think we first have...

Waiting for Green

I always feel weird when I flow so much and just go w what's flowing. I think it's a soul sensory from literally almost (key word almost) every person I've ever met tells me I talk too much. Or that I ramble and say nothing. That's a lie. After riding a metaphoric long water slide...

You Can’t Access It Outside of Love

A question that I hear a lot is: Is that good? Or Is that God or the devil? Lol Who's the bad guy? Lol Is there a bad guy really? Lol I prefer to shift lenses for me. Outside of better or worse, good or bad and in the realm of it depends. Because the...
