I remember being taught how to build a fire as a young girl.

We were on a leadership camp with school, and each group was given a box of matches and a raw chicken, and told to make our own dinner! It was up to us to make the fire, suspend the chicken over it, and cook it until it was completely done (so we didn’t make ourselves sick).

We listened to what we were supposed to do and all sat there a little shell-shocked for a few minutes, until our grumbling bellies helped us to start making a plan to feed them 😊

First we had to gather kindling so the fire had something to start it off with

Next, some small twigs to catch light and give us flames big enough for the larger pieces of wood we gathered to stay lit.

Then large pieces that would make a fire hot enough to cook a whole chicken!

Phew, what I learned about making and sustaining a fire that day has stayed with me until now and helped me in so many areas of my life.

I realized on a coaching call with a client the other day, that this is exactly how we get to nurture our relationship with God too.

In this video, you’ll see

✨ What it looks like to want to create a great relationship with Him

✨ How some intentional steps, from a heart full of love, can help you do that

✨ How very much the Father, Son and Spirit want to be on your mind all through the day, just like you are on Theirs.

So precious!
💖I’m so looking forward to your heart expanding as you walk and talk with Them all throughout your day.
