Words to Lead By with Linda Parkhouse

In this episode, I share some thoughts around the idea that God is sometimes so done with things we do or think. As we approach the future, it’s time to think about what to leave behind, what to retool and what to make new. 

0:42 God is NOT done with… Psalm 34:8 Romans 8:28 (CSB) 1 John 4:8 Lamentations 3:22-23 (CSB) Romans 2:4 (CSB) Psalm 107:2 John 10:27 (AMP) Psalm 86:7 (CSB) 

Leading others is fun and will push us all to grow internally if we let it. Based on Luke chapter one and other passages talked about in this podcast, how will you choose to live your days? Will you live in fear of the enemy of your soul? Will you live in fear of trouble or harm or persecution? Or will you live in His presence, full of hope and courage and His holiness as you do the good works He prepared for you to do before you were born? 

Scriptures referenced in the podcast: Luke 1 (CSB) Isaiah 9:1-7 (CSB) Hebrews 4:12 (NIV) John 16:33 (NIV) Isaiah 64:6 (NIV) Ephesians 4:22-24 (NIV) Ephesians 2:10 (NIV)

I’ve spent months in a bit of a funk and without creative energy. Today, though, let’s look at Psalm 19. In this podcast, I encourage you to look at the list of benefits there are if you obey what God says and ask Him what one change you could make this week to start experiencing those rewards in your life. I observe that what God has to say is good; when I read what God has to say in the Bible, the sins lurking under the surface in my heart get exposed to the light of God and HIs grace; when I make them the meditation of my heart through the day, I get to be pleasing to God; and what God says, if obeyed, brings a long list of rewards with it.

We are all in the nowhere between two somewheres, aren’t we? We are looking at a new and different world and the future isn’t clear for most of us. We can tell the changes we’ve experienced will change the future, but we can’t see with clarity what is around the corner. In this episode learn how to navigate these times with peace, grace and hope.

All of us communicate change at different times in our life. Today I am focusing on two important principles that will make the results of your communication more fruitful.
