Getting "It" Out
Honestly, I often don't know what IS in there. I’m not sure how God is guiding me. That's the problem.
I don't just coach others. I get coached as well, and lean into the process. !
I'm naturally an introvert, meaning I usually don't need to talk out loud to process what I am thinking or feeling. Healthy awareness always takes intentionality, though, and I have found over the years that when I talk things out, I need to choose words to share what I am pondering. This helps me frame out what is really happening.
The Biblical premise is that God has put HIs Spirit within each of us, and there is an inner compass guiding us more than we usually recognize.
John 10:3b says, "...the sheep listen to the voice of the shepherd. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out."
People learn to discern between voices when they listen to one over and over. We learn to discern God's voice by listening.
Good coaching helps us hear what He is already saying to us!
Romans 8:14-15 says, "The true children of God are those who let God's Spirit lead them. The Spirit we received does not make us slaves again to fear: it makes us children of God. With that Spirit we cre out, "Father".
Jeremiah prophesied the plan God had for the New Covenant in Jeremiah 31:33-34a.
"This is the agreement I will make with the people of Israel at that time," says the Lord. I will put my teachings in their minds and write them on their hearts. I will be their God and they will be my people. People will no longer have to teach their neighbors and relatives to know the Lord, because all pepole will know me, from the least to the most important," says the Lord."
"It" is in there. God's plan for your life is in there, in your mind and heart. God's heart is reaching out to you and me, offering alignment with His will for us - for us to know Him and His character, for us to learn about our divine, unique design and how He wants to use our strengths and lean on Him in our weaknesses.
Some of us need to be prompted toward action, and some toward patience.
Some of us need to be more aware of our emotions and what they mean, and others need to be cautious not to let feelings be our sole guide.
Some of us need to learn to listen for when a fear is ruling our lives, and others may need to find ways to release anxiety.
"It" is in there. God has GOOD plans for our lives. Good Coaching helps us learn to discern His voice.
Good Coahing helps us see "it".
Good Coach Training helps us help others!
