Today is the time to let go. Your filtering and refining is taking place. Let the uncomfortable be okay. You’re letting go of past memories, faces + experiences. You are releasing old methods and ways that worked years ago. I know it can be so uncomfortable to let go of what’s familiar. But today is pivotal. 

I see colorful balloons being released. You’re letting go of past victories and defeats. They are no longer needed for where you are going in this season. No, you don’t even need to reflect on them any longer. The old rays will block the newer, stronger ones if you don’t filter. Use your filter and yield to greater accomplishments. Bigger dreams. More complex concepts that will reveal what you’ve been desiring for some time. These textured concepts will unlock areas in your life where you wanted to use your talents but there was no open door for you to walk in and express those wonderful gifts to help others. But if you let go of past triumphs, imaginations, convos, whys and what ifs - and make yourself vulnerable to new events and people - you will see how magnificent the filtering process can be in your life. You will see what upskilling is all about. 

For we must filter and refine our lives periodically or else we get stuck, eventually missing new ways to reframe and produce. Yield and let go today. 

For where we couldn’t see and where it was dimly lit, now we see clearly. Your stillness time is essential for this filtering and refining process. It is a solo process that will transform your heart, mind and body. Let the spirit of God refill you. Empty yourself and let it all go. What is “it”?  What is “all”? I believe it’s what captures your thoughts before you go to sleep at night; the final toss and turn. It’s the first thought you want to resist in the morning but it pops up like a strawberry tart. It’s the internal struggle you’ve haven’t let go. Like gum on the bottom of your shoe. Maybe it’s fear of starting over. Or it’s letting go of a relationship that hasn’t been fruitful for either of you for years. Or the memory of that relationship you can’t shake from your mind and heart. Maybe it an area you can’t get disciplined that would allow freedom for you to experience your life with the peace and genuine joy you’re seeking. Maybe it’s a quiet that’s making you restless because you haven’t figured out what to do in the midst of silence. Or it was something you thought was a good idea, but instead it fell to the ground and turn into a complicated mess. Well, whatever it is - you are now filtering these thoughts on a heightened level because it’s time to let them go. Today LET IT GO. Once you let go, the work of refinement will begin. Those struggles will shrink and have to yield to your new place. The nagging pop-ups will begin to fade and a creative beginning will begin to bud. The refinement must take place and it’s you’re pivotal move.

Declare today the new will spring forth. Look up, not around. Hands extended up, not out. Knees bent, not locked. Yield and let it go.

I decree you’re being filtered and refined and all is well. Live a Life of release Today.
