Have you seen my reset button?" Entering inside the heart and mind of a creative beauty & beast! "

Don't blend in when you were created to stand out!

Sometimes, I wonder how God chooses the gifts and talents bestowed on us. Does He know who will use them fully and who will dig a hole in the ground and store them until the day He returns? Does any of that even matter to God? I know God is a God of covenant; when He gives, He doesn't take it back.

​Being a passion-filled, creative woman, I find myself blessed with many gifts; I am a writer, poet, artist, and a passion-filled curator. I've always felt like God overpacked my backpack, and on days like today, when I feel overwhelmed by the call to be a runway for others to take off, I find myself retreating inside of myself. Only to rediscover the fact that there isn't any place I can go where God can't see me. With tears in my eyes and a weary soul, He receives my words and holds a space for me to empty myself.


Dear Abba,
There is a storm brewing inside of me. The waves are flowing, and I know my destiny is closer than I can see. My heart is open, and my exhausted soul yearns for more- more understanding, clarity, discernment, and guidance about the things You have in store for me and mine!!!  Cue song, "It is for me."

​Dear Dee,
It is time to RESET your heart, body & soul.  You belong to me! Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you. Before you were born, I set you apart. (Jer 1:5) I know the plans I have for you. Who can take you or yours out of my hands? You are in this position for a time like this. FEAR not; you will be a runway for many in this season, but know I have not forgotten you, my child. BE strong and courageous, for I will show you my way in my time according to my will. I am building you up from within so you will never succumb to gravity again. You will rise above the things and people who hurt you, and your story will inspire the souls of many. Those ready to do the work will find you, and you will build your tribe. Stay alert, and don't be distracted in this season. Sit still and wait for me to show up in the quiet moments. I AM... your protection, power, and promise, and you will receive my grace that is sufficient for you if you don't give up in this season!!!

Love,
​Abba.
