For years I did not know who I was as a woman. On the outskirts of life, I stood as a chameleon in the lives of others.
I was used to morphing into “whoever I needed to be” for acceptance, validation and love.
I had no idea how to be “myself” because I had no “sense of self.” If you don’t know, a “sense of self” is a personal, intimate understanding of who you are outside of other people, cultures, religion or what you do…. or even who you are to other people.

Now is the time for many to strategically enter the next phase of their educational journey (JD, PHD, Doctoral, etc) and training initiatives in certain, professional specialty areas like advocacy, political science, chaplaincy, counseling, medicine, etc.
There are “special opportunities” that have opened up and will open up in this season that “offer and present” these opportunities in a learning environment condusive to schedules, lifestyles, budgets, etc. that have not previously existed.

The times and seasons of the prophetic artisan and prophetic scribe are changing in this moment for my people. Sons will begin to see a move toward visual, expressive and oral creativity that speaks from the "courts of Solomon" — where rhetoric, debate and reasoning stood upon the nations.
They can expect to see hard conversations held "through art appreciation" and "discussion"…. and many will see the heart of the Lord emerge… in the most unlikely of environments. Yes, this is happening…. and has happened…. but NOW says the Lord… I am increasing effort in these areas in the lives of my Sons as the congregation continues to transition in this unique time in the earth…

I absolutely love the word “persistent.” It means to “ be firm in a course of action in spite of difficulty or opposition.” It’s that don’t give up or give in type of mindset that makes the soul continue no matter how many times it fails or faces disappointment.
Endurance is its counterpart. That place in the human spirit that declares, “I WILL STAY THE COURSE OF ACTION no matter how unpleasant it or difficult the process is… and I will not give in to defeat.”

I learned in corporate America that there were rewards of consistency, promotions associated with it.
I also learned that this truth was amplified when it came to the work of the ministry. It is directly tied to mature leadership, and setting Christ-centered examples other can follow.
