High Tide is the gravitational pull towards the moon; thus causing the water to rise.
It’s a beautiful picture of the way the Lord pulls us closer to Him, causing us to rise.
This month I saw the tide rise in myself. I am walking out of one of the best months of my life with all the sorrow and all the grieving…I’m also walking out with all of the best moments, with a heart full of joy and with such an excitement about all that the Lord has taught me this month.
As my team and I were riding to Kadoma at the start of the month I felt the Lord telling me this was going to be the month that we were going to start breaking away from the little lies that still held us back.
The Lord told me that I was going to be humbled.
The Lord told me that He wanted me to say yes. To hold nothing back.
OH MY WORD YALL.
Even just reflecting on that has got me so excited about what has happened this month.
Over the course of the month I felt chains start to drop. I saw a freedom that hasn’t been in the air in a very long time. I started dreaming again. I stopped believing that I had nothing to offer my team. I stopped believing lies that I’ve been carrying for a really long time.
I had to humble myself and come to the realization…and a hard one at that…that I’m not always right and it’s okay to be wrong.
I had to ask for help in fundraising because I can’t do it alone..and praise on that, I’M FULLY FUNDED.
I said yes.
I got to teach swim lessons to both children and adults. I got to work with groups of kids that taught me more than I could have imagined. (Pretty sure it was supposed to be the other way around though haha.)
I said yes to the things that made me uncomfortable..like public speaking. Oof it’s a rough one to grow in y’all.
The Lord is faithful in His promises though. All it takes is one step out of our comfort zones.
This month we each got camp names to go by..mine was High Tide. It’s been a rollercoaster but I am thankful I got to experience the tide rising.
Lasting Impressions camp, I hope to see you again someday.
