Cherishedflight the Podcast

God is amazing. You want to know why I say this? Well, God meets each of us at the very epicenter of our need...simultaneously! In other words, God is omipresent, attending to our wounds, our pain, our fears, our situations all at the same time. Take a moment to listen to Episode 137 where I discuss this, and then marinate on it. __ Show Notes: 1.

Welcome to Cherishedflight REWIND! I've dipped into my archives to pull out "Stop Making Camp in Dead Spaces" from 10.16.17. In this episode, I ask if you're stuck in a dead space? Are you sitting in that space without a clue as to how to get up, get out and get on with your life? God is waiting on you to be ready so He can move you out of you dead space, you just have to be willing to do the work to pull yourself out. Take a moment to listen all over again (or for the first time) to Stop Making Camp in Dead Spaces, to learn how to get up and get out of this space so you can move in your season of purpose.

Welcome to Cherishedflight REWIND! I've dipped into my archives to pull out "The Holding Pattern" that I recorded on 10.19.16. In this episode, I ask if you're you in a holding pattern. You know, in that space between where you were and what God has for you? If you are, then please be encouraged in knowing you're in your holding pattern while God prepares your next place. Listen again and share this with your family and friends for a little encouragement while you wait.

Cherishedflight the Podcast REWIND is my opportunity to dig into my archives to share, or re-share, some of my podcast episodes with my #PeaceCollective. The first Rewind features the very first episode of Cherishedflight the Podcast called "Get Your Peace Back". I dropped this on January 26, 2016 and the message is still relevant! Sit back, relax and enjoy this classic episode of Cherishedflight the Podcast (oh and get ready to take some notes, too!)

Sometimes we believe that our scraps--experiences, bad choices we've made and the life that we once lived--make us unworthy of God's time and attention. That is very far from the truth. God can and will use ALL of the things we've been through to be a blessing to someone else. Find out how God uses our ALL things to create a testimony that will open the door to healing for those we encounter. __ Show Notes: 1. Scriptural References: Romans 8:28: http://bit.ly/3c18tzx 2.

Do you invite God into your situations and circumstances, or do you tell God to take a back seat so you can handle it all yourselves? If you're like me, then you probably have a little trouble inviting God in because you believe you believe you can handle it. Trust me, you can't. Trust me, God wants to be in the thick of things, the good, bad and ugly that we all experience. It's time to invite Him in.

We have to be very careful that we don’t approach God as if spending time with him is a chore. God wants us to abide with him, but also to abide with passion. If you find that your time with God has become routine and lacks passion, then this is the perfect Cherishedflight the Podcast episode for you. Take a moment to tune...and share! __ Show Notes: 1.

I've seen many social media posts where my family and friends are calling out for time away from everything. I believe that our spirits are longing for Sabbath Rest. God is calling us to commune with him in solitude so he can replenish our dry bones.

Sometimes we can't hear God amid everything that's cluttering our spirits. You know, the unforgiveness, feelings of offense, disappointment, guilt and shame, and so much more that occupies our minds and takes our peace.

You know that moment of hesitation you feel before you make the big jump? That’s the place where many of us live because we are afraid to trust God. The Lord wants us to make the jump into faith and trust in him that he will do what he says he will do to protect and keep us.

We must be aggressive about pursing God's peace. It is not the peace the "world gives", but God's own peace (John 14:27). This means that, even though God may not remove us from life's difficulties, He does encircle us in His peace that centers us in spite of what we are experiencing.

Have you ever been in a situation when you acted contrary to the person you normally are? When anger and frustration guide your actions, your thoughts and your words? This happened to me and, though I know that “God is not a God of disorder, but of peace”, (I Corinthians 14:33), I still chose my anger and frustration over seeking God's peace.

We are experiencing tumultuous times with multiple life-altering things happening to us all consistently and simultaneously. It's during these times that can make us feel like we're unhinged and separated from God. What we must do is continue to abide. It is through abiding that we learn how deeply God also abides with us.

At the beginning of the year, many people believed that the year 2020 would bring clarity and new vision for us all. And then the bottom fell out of the year and we had to face one of the most tumultuous years in our lifetime.

Question. How often do you stop to hear God's response after you pray? Think about it for a moment...Yeah, I can relate. That same question was asked in a session on prayer that I attended recently, and I was ashamed to say that I don't take enough time for Selah, or to pause, to hear from God. God wants relationship with us, and in order to commune with God, we must be willing, and make time, to hear God's response to our prayers.

God has us in a Psalm 46:10 season where he wants us to "Be still and know he is God". The question is, are we filling our days with busy-ness or are we being still? God told me that I was filling my time with too much stuff and not enough him. God wants us to be still so we can commune with and hear from him, and the only way we can do that is to be still. ______________ Show Notes: 1.

Have you ever taken on the issues of others thinking it's your responsibility to resolve their problems when all God asked you to do was to pray for and encourage them? I have, and doing that caused me stress, anxiety and many sleepless nights. What God really wants us to do is move out of the way so He can do what He needs to do.

To obey means, “to follow the commands or guidance of something”. How many times have you ignored God’s command? How many times have you walked the other way when the Lord has asked you call someone, pray for a stranger, reach out to a family member who hurt you? Our refusal to be obedient has a long reaching impact on the Kingdom. God wants us to have a willing heart, and it is that willing heart that allows us to take part in his plan. He doesn’t need us to do it, he’s asking us to be open to doing what he’s asking us to do.

Why do we have so much difficulty letting go when things end? That is the question I have been asking myself for the past three months. #PeaceCollective, I've been going THROUGH it and had to stop and ask God, "What in the world is happening?"

Grace. The "unmerited divine assistance from God". God extends grace to us, and He expects us to extend that same grace to others. But, because we are human, this is where the gap occurs. How do you extend grace when you've been hurt, wronged or are just plain angry? These are questions I've been asking God. If you're in this same boat with me, then take a moment to listen to Episode 110, "Grace Over Anger" to hear how God responded to those questions I've been asking...and how important operating with grace really is.

After a visit to the chiropractor, I discovered that my spine was out of alignment. This physical issue was only a reflection of how I was out of balance spiritually. I had to follow God to His "quiet place and get some rest", so He could pour into me so I could reconnect with His joy, peace, love and the hope of the Lord (Mark 6:30). If this sounds familiar, then listen to Episode #108 so God can restore and make you whole again. ---- Show Notes: 1.

When in the middle of turmoil, or not, do you give God heartfelt praise or are you faking it? That's the question God asked me recently when he asked me recently, "Are you giving me lip service or heart service?"

I bet you didn’t know that I am one of the most impatient people in your circle. My struggle with impatience is triggered when someone pulls in front of me on the road, or I have to wait at the doctor’s office, in line at the grocery store or on my kids to get their shoes on in the morning on the way to school. I’m also impatient when I ask God for something and He doesn’t respond. God knows this is one of my shortcomings, so, as you can imagine, I have been in a season of patience-building, where I have asked God which way I should go, and He has yet to respond. So, what do you do when you ask God which way you should go, and He doesn’t answer? No, you don’t have a tantrum (though I have done that, too). You wait. But HOW you wait—with patience and grace—determines when God moves you toward the place God has for you. Listen to Episode 105, “Which Way Should I Go?, for some insight and encouragement about waiting with grace during your season of patience-building. _______________ Show Notes: 1.

The seed time can be one of the most frustrating times in life because it feels like God has abandoned you. That, however, is very far from the truth. God uses the seed time to develop our root system of faith, trust and belief in Him. Sounds strange, right? But it's true.

Are you available to God? I mean, really available? When God calls do you respond, or do you allow your flesh to keep you from doing what’s been asked? Just like you, I’m human. I’ve told the Lord that I’m available, but have been disobedient when He came calling for me to do something for the Kingdom.

“A ‘successful’ life has become a violent enterprise. We make war on our own bodies, pushing them beyond our limits; war on our spirits, because we are too preoccupied to listen to the quiet voices that seek to nourish and refresh us.” -Wayne Mueller If we don't allow ourselves to rest, then our bodies will force us to do so. That's where I am right now, in a forced rest that is causing me to examine why it has taken me so long make time to refill my tank.

Lent. It's a season when many of us are diligently trying to keep ourselves from something that we love for 40 days. But it's that mindset that proves how much we don't know about the Lenten Fast. What I'm learning is that Lent is more than just a fast. It is my opportunity to abide and commune with God. It's my opportunity to meet the Lord in a whole new way, but I will miss that if I focus on what I'm not able to do for the next during the fast.

Sometimes life gets dark and you look up and find that you’ve moved from the light into the gray. What’s the gray? It’s that space where you’re numb and life seems to have lost it’s color. This isn’t the time to give up on you, it’s the time reach out to God, and to seek, and accept, some assistance to get you back on track. In Episode #94, I share my notes from my own storm, the gray period I’m currently experiencing that is teaching me how to reach out to the Lord, and accept the help I need.

How much of our time are we truly giving to God? Do you go to the Lord when you’re in need, or do you make time for relationship with God consistently? Are you present, or are you connecting with God halfway? I am not perfect, and I fall into the bad habit of putting God on the backburner when I feel like I don’t need him, too. This is not the relationship God wants to have with us. It’s time for us to stop doing it haflway with God, so we can open ourselves up to do it with our all! -------- Show Notes: 1.

What do you do when you're up against the wall? What thoughts do you think? What words do you say? Who do you run to to share how you're truly feeling? I've had to answer questions like these many times. I know what it should be, but I don't always turn to God when the real real REAL goes down, and that is an indicator of how much faith I have in the Lord. This week, I'm sharing the final installment in my "Mind Your Tongue" series with Part III: What Fruit Are You Producing? I'm very transparent in this epsiode, sharing my personal story of doubt during a season (7 years) of longsuffering that my husband and I endured, and how God used that season to build our faith. Please take a moment to listen to this episode, and to share it with someone you know who's going through a rough time. I pray they receive encouragement to get through the hard times. Show Notes: 1.

2019 is all about being intentional, especially with the words I choose to use to create my reality. I am so tired of the little deaths I’ve been speaking over my life that create their own realities of self-hate, disappointment, anger and unhappiness. Proverbs 18:21 says that, “death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit”. In order for me to create a reality that is filled with life, then I must speak it. Part II, “What Fruit are You Serving?” is all about how what we say about others draws either negative or positive energy back to us. We can either serve judgement, gossip and condemnation, or we can serve the Fruit of the Spirit: love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.
