SWIRLS OF NURTURE

Sometimes I feel like a creator, sometimes I feel like a teacher,  sometimes I feel like a worshipper, 
sometimes I just feel three worlds swirling, colliding, morphing into new worlds . . 
. . . yet with each swirl the need to nurture . . .
. . . nurture midst fragile creations, vulnerable artists, emotive questioning soundscapes, wondering and wandering thoughts, midst a church wondering how to create in the image of the One who created all.

Being More Emotional is a Normal Reaction

After a disaster, you may be more emotional than usual or act in ways that are simply not like you. And with all this going on inside, you may find it difficult to concentrate. You are not going crazy. These are normal reactions to trauma. Don’t forget that your body is attempting to process and cope with the event. Remember that your reaction is part of God’s warning system that has been triggered telling you to seek safety and help.

​Tears are part of how God has designed your body (physically, emotionally and spiritually) to help you heal!  Go ahead and cry! It is worth repeating what we have already said. Don’t feel guilt or shame. You should not feel shame because God is not ashamed of you.

Oh, guard my soul, and deliver me! Let me not be put to shame, for I take refuge in you. Psalm 25:20

However, if your reactions are so strong that they keep you from carrying out your responsibilities, find someone who can help you. Talk to a friend, a pastor, a counsellor, or a doctor.  Seek help if you can’t carry out essential everyday responsibilities.   ​
