Enjoying the tempo of a God-breathed life!

May 15, 2017 By Natalie Joy 2 Comments

Dreamers,

Have you ever experienced a message from God that so clear that you end up getting the same message over and over from different sources all over a short period of time? I feel this is the best why to describe my last few months.

As most of you know I am a natural striver, always looking for the next strategic move. Two years ago my life changed in many ways as I left my corporate career to pursue my God-sized dream full-time, helping women through the process of discovering and pursuing their own God-sized dreams.

It has been the most incredible phase of my life but also, so very challenging. I wish I could say as I have moved through my journey I have always intentionally slowed down my need to strive and waited to just listen and let God set the pace but it is an ongoing struggle for me. So this has been the message from God the last few months…“Your part is to yield to my creative work in you, neither resisting it nor trying to speed it up. Enjoy the tempo of a God-breathed life by letting Me set the pace.” 

Enjoy the tempo of a God-breathed life by letting Me set the pace.

Thirty days ago I issued a challenge to the incredible group of ladies I work with monthly. This challenge has been an amazing change in my own life as I am noticing that I am so much more mindful and intentional with my family, and in the work that I do. I am intentionally slowing down, listening to God, and removing the extra clutter from my own life.

Please take a moment and watch my video challenge and I challenge you to do the same!  

Your Friend,

Natalie Joy

    This is such a helpful, and wise, post. Thank you, Natalie, for sharing your challenge as it confirmed a few things for me. About a month ago, I began doing some very similar actions – not taking my phone with me everywhere, leaving it on silent on the charger when home, etc. I have found it truly was restorative to my mind and soul. It made such difference even though these were each small steps or actions. Wonderful video!

    Natalie, I’m writing this as I listen to your words, and can enter in completely to your warnings about the dangers of comparison – and there are no boundaries to this: our personal life, our ministry experiences, and right now I’m hearing you say that you were “working out” and thinking that whatever I do for exercise is so tame it could hardly be called a “work out.” We’re so prone to this damaging tendency!

    Also, the planning input is great: At this stage of the game, I do all my planning right in my daily planner where I keep track of everything else, but I can see that if I posted more often I would need a more comprehensive approach.

    Thanks for the challenge to let our daily work, our family, and the real presence of people and ministry take priority over the Siren call of media with all its virtual glitter.
