Goliath Syndrome- Are you counting your soldiers?

Posted on October 22, 2017October 22, 2017by tara.dickson

Have you ever imagined what you would do in a difficult situation? Or have you made up scenarios of what you would say? You know,kind of like a test run? I don’t know about you but I like to be prepared! I was never a fan of pop quizzes! Tell me in plenty of time […]

Maybe you need this reminder.  The sheep hear His voice. 
That phrase has been resounding in my heart lately.  It made sense that the first episode of the Seek and Savor podcast Season 7  should be this. 
So, I made space to lean in and SEEk Him on this. I am so excited to share it with you. 
 
Friends, If Jesus could do nothing by himself, then surely I cannot, we cannot. 

When we quiet our hearts to hear His still small voice  we can better partner with Him in the work He is already doing around us.

We can feel His peaceful presence even in the midst of many questions. 

Join us at the link in my bio for 10  minutes that will calm your soul and bring the light of His presence. 

He is the Living Word. ❤️

Did you see the freshly bloomed blossoms on the same branch as a dead leaf barely hanging on? (Last image) 
We serve a God who brings life from death. We can trust His timing and His ways. 
I believe Autumn invites us to surrender all the things to Him.  And in the surrender we find Comfort and Joy, the very thing so many are looking for in the (Christmas) season to come. 
Look what happens when we Lift Up Our Eyes beloved.

Sometimes God does His deep work when we feel hidden away. 
Maybe you feel hidden because of grief and loss. 
Maybe you feel hidden because of a change in your circumstances. 
Maybe you can’t even articulate why you feel hidden. 
Though that place may feel hard beloved, and your desire is for rescue…. He is there. 
He has good for you right there in that desert place. 
Lift up your eyes, turn them back to Him and find the hope that is waiting for you “in His presence.”

35 years ago today I married Alan Dickson. 
It is strange when the one you would celebrate this milestone with is in Heaven. 
It is worth remembering and celebrating. 
Though it be both bitter and sweet  I make space to grieve the things that are not and give thanks for what is. I am a glass half full person. Not because I was born that way but because I have learned to fight the good fight that way. I have learned to endure and lead my heart back to a place of trusting God . 
It doesn’t mean the grief is gone. It means I can feel everything and land in a place of looking up.

Many of us will describe peace as , something we experience in a particular place or when something hard is absent. And while these might bring about a feeling of peace there are also things we do to gain a sense of peace that are really just distractions. Remove those thinigs and our peace is gone once again. The newest episode of the Seek and Savor podcast will  help you find true peace to anchor your heart in. ❤️

We live in a fallen world, people sin, and hurt abounds. 
But God…. It is the place I am learning to live in. 
Yes, these things are true. 
My leg still hurts from an injury back in February and my car broke down on the way to church. But also, a friend painted my kitchen cabinets cream and my son repaired my deck.  I find myself savoring more of God’s word, I read books to my grands in silly voices and I get to have conversations about Jesus everyday. 

I am standing in faith  waiting on God for many things… You are too right?
But God.
He Still lives and His promises are true. He is not man that He should lie. ❤️
Dear friends, if your heart tends to linger over what has not yet been made whole maybe like me you need the reminder of who God is and what he has done so that gratitude can revive your heart.
Don’t miss today’s new episode of the Seek and Savor podcast on this topic. (Link in bio.)
Many things may be true, the hard and the beautiful but gratitude can revive your heart. ❤️
