It's interesting. I'm realizing that, much like we all have a "money mindset" that we need to heal if we want more abundance in our bank accounts, that we all also have a "Jesus mindset" (or a "faith mindset) that we have the opportunity to heal if we want more spiritual abundance. To be clear, I don't think this is the only way to achieve more spiritual abundance - there are thousands of spiritual paths that bring people close to God - but I do think many of us have a mindset based in our upbringing that COULD actively be keeping us from something beautiful. And I think that because I've been living that.
I've shared on Instagram that I'm on a faith journey. Meaning, I'm looking to know more about God (per the Bible) and Jesus. It even feels weird typing that because I rejected this path for so long lest I be lumped into the people who use the name of Jesus to judge, condemn, and exile.
My hair dresser today asked me how my faith journey was going. She told me how her mom was running way too deep into it, which was making her run away from it.
As I shared in my "I Just Can't Anymore" episode, I have been on a "faith journey" these past 6 months. Really, it's been about the past 32 years, but this particular leg feels deeper, more urgent.
In this episode, I share what it's looking like. Why I'm searching, what I'm searching for and how I'm going about it. Check it out if you're also searching, looking for a way in where it feels like there hasn't been one before, or if you just want to know what this is looking like for me.
