YOU
Hello beautiful This is your moment. I passionately believe your Creator wants to meet with you right now. And whisper who and who's you are, and some big dreams over your life. How can i be so sure? Because we are all born with a plan and a purpose uniquely ours. You are uniquely loved, distinctly chosen and purposed for such a time as this. Isaiah 43 declares an unshakeable promise that you (yes you!) are beautiful, precious and honoured in his sight. I passionately believe that we become truly alive when we claim for ourselves the words of our Creator. And from the safe place of security in this eternal identity, all things are possible. My prayer is that God will meet you in a profoundly personal way in these words, that you will find new depth & awakening to His truth and courage and calling to live boldly in His story. Know that there is a Creator in heaven and a company of women on earth who believe in the beauty of all that you were created for. Let's go!
You are precious and honoured in his sight. Isaiah 43
Week One. Infinite value.
Infinite / adjective / without limit, without end. Value / noun / the worth that something is held to deserve.
Infinite Value. The gospel of John declares that the thief comes to kill, steal and destroy, but Jesus came to give life and life abundantly. I believe that the truth of John's gospel today is often fought through the battleground of women's self esteem; with a generation of women lost in lies that their worth and value is in who the world says they are. The truth is you are an infinitely loved, worthy daughter of the eternal King of all Kings. How did we become so robbed of the label beloved daughter? Heart, mind, body and soul you are wonderfully made. But often over the course of years of casting hope and having it come back with broken dreams & disappointments; insecurities, and settling for the world's definition of love, lust and everything in between; our sense of self diminishes and we start to settle for less than who we are called to be. Like a diamond, the wear and tear of years might diminish your shine, but it doesn't change the essence within. Picture a $100 note. Over the years the note might get tarnished, wrinkled, crumpled but its intrinsic worth and value remains the same.
Infinite Value. They say that we settle for the love that we think we deserve. The truth is you deserve no less than the love of a Creator who has gifted you with the breath in your lungs right now, who loves and believes in you so much that you were given the gift of life. Our Creator seeks to remind you of who you are, and calls you 'beloved daughter'. He isn't scared away by your past, your disappointments, your shame - he is waiting patiently for you to pause and allow him to put a crown of redemption over your head. Can you hear the whisper? There is no shame in this perfect love who sees you and declares you infinitely worthy. In the words given to Isaiah our Creator declares "I will rebuild you with precious jewels, and make your foundations from lapis lazuli (side note - gorgeous gemstones!). I will make your towers of sparkling rubies, your gates of shining gems and your walls of precious stones" (Isaiah 54,11-12). Whatever your past circumstances or actions might have been, I believe God is asking you to lift your eye's and awaken to your eternal, undiminished worth as He see's and know's you to be. Perhaps you need to hear today that God delights in you, there is no judgement in his gaze but perfect love. You are fully known, fully loved, and your worth is fully secured and unashamed in Him. You are his beloved daughter in who he is infinitely pleased.
Pause & Reflect. What words of worth & value do you need to reclaim in your heart and over your life today? ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................

And  her eye's were made intelligent, focused and clear. Ephesians 1: 1519 (adapted)
Week Two. Unshakeable Identity. Unshakeable / adjective / unable to be disputed or questioned. Identity / noun / the fact of who someone is.
Unshakeable Identity. I passionately believe we come into the fullness of our identity when we connect heart, mind and soul with our Creator. In the gospel alone we find out both the truth of who we are and what we are living for. Paradoxically, as we lift our eye's off ourselves and understand the heart of our Creator, we begin to discover ourselves. CS Lewis so beautifully wrote, we cannot see light but through light we see all things. Similarly,we cannot see God but it is only through God that we see all things clearly, including ourselves. The more we discover about God, the more we discover about ourselves. I believe that God placed a yearning for the eternal in all of our hearts made to find wholeness in connection with Him. While the unique whispers of God's heart to you are - just that personal, profound and unique. There are some eternal truths that set the foundations for unshakeable identity. While the world might say shame on you, God's word takes shame off you in an instant. Our lineage can be found in a creation story where God created woman and called her "Good". The original meaning of the word is radiant, at ease, best, better, beautiful.
Unshakeable Identity. This is your true identity, and there is no firmer foundation you can stake your picture of yourself on than this. And this truth of who you are is as true on your best days, as it is on your worst days - and everything in between. If the author and finisher of all life declares you 'good', can you let yourself receive it? Â Jesus himself so profoundly showed the value he placed upon womanhood in a series of personal, intimate, relevant moments throughout the Bible. Far from being distant, he strategically sought out women to affirm dignity, strength and value upon them as the key to fully walking in their worth. One moment where this is so beautifully brought to life is when Jesus healed a woman bleeding uncontrollably for twelve years. Yes, Jesus offered physical healing but most importantly Jesus brought spiritual healing with one word, one name, one title, one identity: Daughter. Daughter your faith has made you well. (Matthew 9:22). Echoing through time, today we too are beckoned into this story with this one redemptive word: Daughter. Â Today, you are offered all the unshakeable identity you need in this one word: Daughter. It's time to rise up and claim it!
Pause & Reflect. Beloved daughter, what do these words mean to you? ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ Digging deeper, what does living as a beloved daughter mean to you? ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ What would change if you knew today you could live from this place of security and freedom unconditionally today? ............................................................................................................................... ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................
"This is my beloved daughter. In who I am pleased"Â I John (adapted)
Week Three. Beloved to Love.
Beloved / adjective / cherished. treasured. precious. love / verb / the overflow of love, in action.
Beloved to Love. When we discover how much we are truly loved and gain a glimpse of our eternal valued & identity, it unlocks space to love others well from a deeper well. Our journey and redemption is not for us alone. We are truly beloved to become love in action out into the world loving others well. Beautiful daughter, can you truly give yourself permission to receive this love today, and step into all He desires to awaken in you? Jesus so beautifully left us with two foundational teachings, Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul and strength. And love your neighbour like yourself (Matthew 22:37). We can often skip to focusing on loving others, without giving equal weight to loving yourself. What does self love and self compassion free from selfishness mean? I believe that God placed eternity in our hearts to worship and be in connection with him. There are spaces within us that long for the eternal, our true home and can only be filled in connection with Him 'as deep calls to deep'. When we are filled with His love from this deep well, we can for the first time see ourselves as we are truly made to BE.
Beloved to love. There is no shame or fear in perfect love. On our best days, and on our worst, we are equally loved. He chose wholeheartedly to love us first, equally we can chose to receive this love and freedom that is meant for us. Escaping shame and choosing self-compassion is both an act of self love and an act of love to others, as it allows us to step fully into all we were created to be to go out and love others well. I encourage you to linger with your Creator in his word and allow Him to speak redemptive words of life, faith and affirmation over your heart. Seeing ourselves clearly means we can truly receive the truth from the heart of our creator. That we are truly wonderfully made; perfect & whole; and beautiful in His sight. Similarly, as we ask God to give us eyes to see people through his heart, we can see our commonalities more than our differences. Below the surface we are all seekers of love, belonging and true connection. It is from this place that we can truly meet ourselves clearly, and from a deep well start to overflow in love towards others. When our 'need' becomes filled in a complete and perfect love, we can both see ourselves and others clearly for the first time. So, beautiful Lady, are you brave enough to look out, look up and reach out in connection today?
Pause & Reflect. What do you love about yourself? How can you celebrate your gorgeous uniqueness today? ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ Digging deeper, what does God's word say about who you are in Him? How can you see yourself differently today in His light? ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ What does living love in action mean in your world today? .............................................................................................................................. ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ .
She leads others to into the presence of the King. Psalm 45 (adapted)Â
Week Four. Awaken and Run. Awaken / verb / To rouse from sleep; to rouse different, new emotions & actions. Run / verb / to move quickly in confidence in the one direction.
Awaken & Run. From a whisper to a shout, can you hear it? There is a God in heaven who believes in you so much he gifted you with the heart that is beating right now. He is not a God of mistakes. There is no mistakes in your arrival, timing and footsteps on this earth. You are purposed, positioned and entrusted with a calling uniquely yours. To live with influence and authority by the very nature of His design. He is beckoning you to awaken & run; run this life well for yourself, and for the ones that are lost. I believe as we come into true revelation of how much we have been given, we cannot help but show love in action to others. Luke 12:48 so beautifully carries this invitation; where much has been entrusted much is required. 'Entrusted' goes further than trust, we are trusted into action. A level of action that calls us to 'awaken & run'. To awaken is to wake from a deep slumber with a sense of conviction, calling and purpose. To rouse new emotions, to sense a hieghtened urgency and importance in the daily.
Awaken & Run. As we look into the mirror of God's word and discover who we really are, we are compelled to live and act in a bigger way. James 1 25 speaks of taking a long, hard look in the revelation of a Creator God; whoever captures a glimpse of this life - the free life - becomes a woman of action who will find delight and affirmation in that action. To run, requires a sense of urgency and clarity aroundyour direction. Purpose isnt just for a few, it is for every woman. To align our will with God's will for our lives first and foremost; to swap the urgent for the important and to awaken and run after his Glory. You beautiful daughter, are called to be the light in a fallen world. Matthew 5:14 encourages us to be the light bringing out the beautiful God-colours in the world. As living carriers of this message, we are entrusted with a revealation of healing, of value, of purpose, and of mission for more than ourselves alone. You beautiful daughter, are equipped with a message inside you that God is weaving together in a much richer canvas and story than for us alone. I pray that you will awaken and run to boldly take your place in His-Story Because the truth is the King is wild for you.
Pause & Reflect. What areas of you life do you need toawaken in your holy purpose today? ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ Digging deeper, what is that God sized dream tugging on your heart today, asking you to take His hand and run? ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ...............................................................................................................................I If you could be fully free to be who you are in God, what would that look like today? ............................................................................................................................. ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ ................................................................................................................................ Because the truth is beautiful you already are. Its yours to step forward and claim it.
"For i know the plans I have for you", says the Eternal, "plans for peace, to give you a future and hope - never forget that"Â Jerimiah 29:11 (The Voice)
