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.

Do you feel rejected?

Perhaps you have experienced physical disfiguration and feel shame when people look at you. Perhaps trauma is affecting your speech, actions, and social interactions. Perhaps you are being rejected because of your obedience to God, beliefs or actions. You may notice that people try to avoid you. As a result, you may feel shame. 

Jesus suffered so greatly that men hid their faces from him. Although he was God eternal, some did not respect or value him. In fact, they scoffed at him, tortured him, and crucified him. Jesus knows what it feels like to be rejected.
He was despised and rejected by men;  a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief; and as one from whom men hide their faces he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Isaiah 53:3

Take time to pour out your emotions, questions, fears and cries for help to God. God sent His Holy Spirit to earth to comfort you.
But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. John 14:26-27

 The word for ‘Helper’ means ‘the one who is called to one’s side to help’. It also means advocate, teacher and comforter.  Cry out to God and the Holy Spirit, who lives in every believer will comfort you, and bring to your remembrance truth from His Word. This truth will lead you to healing and peace. Let not your heart be troubled or afraid!
