GOD WANTS WHAT YOU WANT
Yesterday I got a DM from a woman telling me how infectious APEX season is - this happens every time, but it never fails to excite me!
She proceeded to tell me how she’s successfully shifted out of survival mode and stabilized herself. Then she said…
“…suddenly, I got a huge desire, a God sized desire.”
This reminded me… “delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart.”
Which, synchronistically enough, has a dual meaning:
Prioritize reaching for God and he will give you your desires.
Prioritize reaching for God and he will inspire you to your desires.
God will place the desires on your heart.
God not only delivers the goods, but inspires you to the desires themselves. Another way to see it is:
God desires through you.
I find the ✨awareness✨ of our God sized desires is difficult to access when we’re asking too small…
You won’t be available for the big dreams if you’re sweating the small stuff. Perhaps God is eagerly awaiting you to drop your worries so you’re available for the big, juicy, dreamy life that God wants to experience through you.
Remember, you have the same creative power as God. This “formless substance” simply goes wherever it’s focused.
If your focus is always on putting out small fires in your life, then that’s all you’ll get…
Just consider: if God placed a desire on your heart, and you focus on that… doesn’t that imply all the small fires are already put out?
Don’t you think God would consider these things when inspiring you to the desires?
You know that feeling when you get a new vision of something you want? Or a thought pops into your mind and internally you say, “I would LOVE that!!!”
Has it ever occurred to you that that feeling is God?
It’s a direct point of clear contact.
That enthusiasm… or joy… or HELL YEAH!… or that lightning bold of clarity… is God telling you where to go and what to focus on.
Can you imagine the enthusiasm God must feel for life? Your life?!
The supreme interest in everything you have going on. The excitement for all the things that are coming next. The ecstasy, pleasure, and appreciation for what delights you today. The anticipation for all the good things!!! The ravenous desire to create exactly what you want, when you want, and how you want it.
GAH!!!! It could make you explode!
The other morning I was in the kitchen grinning like an idiot and shivering with delight just from the sheer thought of the upcoming round of APEX.
My pure eagerness means God is over there.
I let the emotion build to a crescendo, and carried on with my day. While excitement may not persist all day, there are many Godly states to toggle between.
And I think it’s worth mentioning here, God does not spend a single moment contemplating disappointment… yuck! Nobody wants that nonsense.
While you may attempt to throttle your excitement or eagerness to “shield” yourself from the sting of disappointment… not only does it not work, but it feels bad because you’ve splintered away from God’s perspective.
*womp womp*
And for the record, how the fuck does bracing for disappointment help you? You just pout twice instead of once? 🙄
Kick that bad habit to the curb! Stop bracing for a bad feeling and start playing full out.
If something falls through just move on to the next creation! (I like to think that’s how God keeps his poise hehe.)
Remember: God wants what you want, and you do NOT want disappointment… ergo, God ain’t over there!
I will leave you with some final questions to marinate on…
What if God is right to be excited? What if it is safe to trust God’s perspective?
What if you want the things you do because God wants to experience them through you? Don’t you think God is motivated to make them happen?
Consider: none of this is difficult for God.
And if you’re coming to this round of APEX I seriously cannot wait to see you!!! (There’s that enthusiasm again 🤭)
