Clarity To Courage - With Avery Forrest, A business podcast

I used to think there were only 2 answers with God...Go and No. BUT, what if God says whoa?In this episode I discuss the fact that sometimes God says whoa. Sometimes He will ask a doer (a Martha) to sit at His feet. What if the most obedient thing you could do was rest? Surly God doesn't ask us to do that? Surly not resting is not disobedient? I will dive into this today on this episode.Join the email list here.EMAIL LIST

These three elements I believe should be part of everyone's time with God. Now there isn't an exact formula...but just like posture, pace, and breathing are key elements to running these are key elements to time well spent with the Lord. Commitment and prioritization get us to the time with God but what should we do when we are there? Worship- Adoration, surrender, praise-fully declaring God Lord of your life Conversation- Prayer- talking to God just like you would with a deep friendship or marriage. Real conversation. Pouring yourself out before the LordGod's word- often we are looking for a word from God and He is saying…I already wrote it.

Today's episode is an interview with Melissa Dickey who began to ask God what was next after her kids left home. She prayed and God led her. One of the biggest takeaways I got from her story was the fact the the firs thing she felt led to try didn't go well BUT she did not give up. She prayed, she learned, and she adjusted. So often we give up too soon when the first thing doesn't go our way. Don't give up, pray and see if there is a next step.

I was on a run the other day and boy did God show up and speak to me about it! Here are 3 things I learned that day! 3 Principles of Growth If we want to grow…Lesson #1 You can't focus on how you feel you must focus on your goal Lesson #2 Doing the minimum only maintains you. Maintaining is not for seasons of growth. Lesson #3 Don't compare your growth to someone who started their journey before you. Instead bless them and be encouraged by where they are. Take one more step towards your growth. Don't be so focused on another persons race that you begin to run theirs and not your own. Don't miss your target by aiming at someone else's!DOWNLOAD FOR SCREEN SAVER www.claritytocourage.com

Today I finish up the relationship series. I talk about how intentionally pursuing relationship with God leads to intimacy with God...but it's not the intimacy we think about...Dive in to todays episode.

Hey LadiesSo today is part 2 of the relationship series. I ask you to evaluate where your relationship with God is.Ticket PunchHave toWant toI break all of these down today and ask you to answer honestly where you are in your relationship with God!

There is a major difference between a transactional relationship and a transformational relationship. I break down the difference today. I talk about how you can encounter someone on a daily basis for years and still not remember their name. Yet...when we allow someone's voice into our lives it can leave us changed.

Refocus can be as simple as repositioning yourself before the Lord... www.claritytocourage.com Here are 3 things that can knock us off focus 1. Distraction 2. Discouragement 3. Depth of Filed (position)    

  Come renew yourself at the Clarity to Courage Conference Click Here Renew means to make like new to restore to freshness     I don't know about you but there is so much of me that needs renewing.   Think about an old piece of furniture and how in the hands of the right person they can restore that thing to freshness…sometimes it takes on a new purpose an other times you just get 100 more years out of it. Renewing is something that must take place in order for us to live out this life on earth…       So what does scripture say can be renewed.   Our Hearts |  Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. 2 Cor 4:16   Our Minds  | Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.  Romans 12:2   Our Spirit | Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of your salvation and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me. Psalms 51:10-12   So how is it that we are renewed?   It is in Christ Presence that we find this renewal. It is in relationship with Him   It is in His word…it is in praising God   It is in a walk   It is in rest 14 The LORD replied, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” Exodus 33:14

Do you need to be refreshed? I remember when I heard my husband preach from Proverbs 11:25 "Refresh others and you yourself will be refreshed" and I thought...ME ME I want that! I want to be refreshed...and I want to refresh and encourage others! Well here are 3 ways you can be refreshed.   1. Take a day with God 2. Coffee date with a friend or friends 3. Gather with other believers by going to the Clarity to Courage Conference (or find a conference to go to!) www.claritytocourage.com https://www.chasingsacred.com/online-ministry-conference/?ltclid=  

Conference https://www.claritytocourage.com/conference/   I know you most likely buy the next course because you want to see growth in your life…   Did you know that only 15% of people who purchase the course finish the course…   Before you think I am anti courses…I AM NOT. I have grown so much from courses…but I have also purchased courses gotten two lessons in and realized I already knew the information.   My problem was not information it was implementation. Or the fact that I didn't have the courage to implement what I already knew.   I break down more of this in my podcast episode #36 on the Clarity to Courage podcast BUT before you buy the next course I want to give you 4 other options     Go back and finish a course you already purchased and then actually implement it- if you really need to grow in that area don't buy another course about it…it wasn't their teaching, implement it. Create the space and capacity. Group coaching/community - Sometimes you can grow better with community. Typically if there is a course on something there is a group on that topic too. Again you still have to create the space to implement. Workshop/retreat/conference - So much growth can happen in a short amount of time! BUT You still have to be willing to implement what you learn. Teach someone else - You can really grow when you are teaching someone what you know and what you have been through. Find someone a few steps behind…start to teach them you will grow and so will they!   Moral of the story | if you aren't willing to implement you will not see growth no matter what you invest in.   Go listen to episode 36 of the Clarity to Courage podcast to hear more on this topic!     Listen to todays episode as I break these 4 other options down.

  https://www.claritytocourage.com/conference/   Comfort - Control - Capabilities- Comfort I want to talk today to the women who feel stuck but also feel stirred at the same time… I want to continue with the theme of Tuesdays episode about the call being to all of us… The call is for all of us to come…to come to Jesus…to take part in the impossible… Peter didn't care in that moment that He would go down in history as the man who walked on water with Jesus…it was about getting to Jesus…  The comfort cycle is Comfort-Control-Capablities Come over comfort- We have to move over staying comfortable. This can be so hard. Giving up what is comfortable truly is harder than we think. Not only are there mindset issues to have to deal with here…the more we do something the more it gets ingrained in our heads… 2. Focus over control- The next thing we see in the passage is that Peter steps out…and He starts walking to Jesus…it doesn't say how far He got but it does say this…he saw the wind and began to sink… 3. Surrendered over capable - Peter was grabbed by Jesus then went back to the boat with Jesus…He was surrendered to Jesus…I will say this it is a lot easier to be surrendered when you make it to Jesus…here is the thing though…Jesus was out on the water the entire time Peter was…He was there before actually

Conference Link https://www.claritytocourage.com/conference/   Just be cause she did doesn't mean you can't…it means you should too! Just do it the way God is calling you to it!   You call me out upon the waters The great unknown Where my feet may fail And there I find you in the mystery In oceans deep My faith will stand   And I will call upon your name And keep my eyes above the waves When oceans rise My soul will rest in your embrace For I am yours And you are mine   The call to come is for us all…   Not only that but there is strength in numbers!     Sadly its a numbers game…and only so many will move out of their comfort and control zone into the call from the possible to the impossible   I want to rally those that feel the call to the impossible…it should be all of us! We are all called to it! The very same power that rose christ from the dead lives inside of you and me…will we let it out?   Will we step out will we share our mess and let God turn it into a message?   When Jesus spoke to the crowds…how did they all hear Him?? Jesus speaking to the crowds in and of itself was impossible but God took what Jesus said and amplified His voice.   The impossible is God having a plan for each one of us! God taking our life story…taking what the enemy meant for harm…taking what has happened to you and using to to help so many others.   The enemy wants you to keep it in…to be angry and bitter…to stay wounded and alone…to keep you silent…   God says…I used her story I can use yours too…She is just willing to step out of the comfortable I need you to do that too.   Someone out there needs your story. Someone out there needs to see you stand up and step out. The more of us that do the more of us that will.   Think about it…think about how much easier it is to find strength when you are doing it along side someone else!   I had never thought about the other disciples who stayed in the boat until today…until my friend Alissa highlighted that for me in her writing.   I will have to keep you on the line for all her thoughts on their thoughts when her book comes out…but you can just imagine they probably have the same thoughts that you and I have as we watch   HER do it…   But we need to remember where this started today…just because she did doesn't mean you can't!       Can you imagine how if they had all linked arms and stepped out together …     Can you imagine instead of us living in the lie the enemy keeps feeding us about being a copy cat or looking like we are just trying to be her…cheer her on then be you…   Two sunflowers sit beside each other in a field…both with the same purpose…but both completely unique because they have a creative creator…you have heard me say this before…I don't believe that even a single flower has been duplicated…   You don't see them comparing themselves…you don't see one stop thriving because the other one is thriving…no they actually compliment each other…the bring out the beauty in each other.   One flower is pretty but a field of them is breath taking!   So I will end today with saying it again   Just because she did doesn't mean you can't, won't, should, or could…   You are his handiwork…Ephesians 2:10 is true about you and about me…   Pray this today…God what did you make me for? What are your plans…God I don't want my dreams…what are your dreams for me?   Stop watching everyone else and wishing you had started…and start today living out your call…   Stop gathering ideas and doing market research…find someone to help you put strategy to what God has called you to…and start doing it…   You need refreshing, you need renewing, you need to refocus…step out with all the others stepping out and coming to the conference meant to do that for you and come too!

I went to Marco Polo to reach out to a friend to ask for prayer…but that is just christian to say “ I want to get this off my chest!” As I was pressing record I felt God say to me…before you tell her about it…tell me about it! Wow it hit my like a ton of bricks…God gives us everything we need…If we are anxious He tells us how to handle it. There is nothing too big or too small to tell God about. I could tell you story after story of God's faithfulness and how He has come through in the big and small things if I would just pray,.

Do you know the real definition of success? Success | The accomplishment of an aim or purpose that is it! Are you hitting your goals??? Then you are successful. Are you doing what you set out to do? Then you are successful! What ever you do, work at it with all your heart as working for the Lord and not for human masters! Colossians 3:23 That is it...that is success. Seek Him and He will show you what your aim should be. Work as until the Lord and accomplish that aim...boom! There you have it. Success. It isn't about hitting 6 figures or being published in a magazine...it is about being home with your kids if that is the aim. It is about saving for retirement if that is the aim. Whatever it is work as unto the Lord!    

There are so many things in our lives and business that we could be doing…but should we be doing it From the moment Jesus changed my life and showed me that He had plans for me that is all I have ever wanted…HIS plans for my life. I haven't always nailed it but I know that my hearts deepest desire is His Will With that being said…are you doing things right now because you could be doing them…or are they what you should be doing??? What is the last thing God spoke to you? 2. Are the things you are doing in line with what he spoke Depending on the answer to these two questions you have some praying to do Am I still doing what you have for me?  God is this what you want me doing Are there things I should be doing that go along with what you have spoken?   Seek God and He will show you what you should be doing.
