10 seeds that have been planted during COVID-19

I was listening to the message I was using to produce the podcast (find it at revtrev.com/radio) What to do when you want to give up. I got to the part about planting seeds in a famine because maybe God will bless them.

I preached What to Do When You Want to Give Up at the start of COVID-19 and thought I should pause and think about what seeds I’ve planted.

If you were to look on my autofocus list that I keep myself up-to-date with, you might be overwhelmed for me.

Trust me, I’m not.

I get invigorated when I see a plan come together. I get motivated to finish the work I’ve been entrusted to do.

But I have learned to take a breath and look at what’s been able to be planted during this time that can easily be considered a drought.

Isaac planted seeds

Isaac planted in a drought and God blessed it...he really blessed it. Isaac was able to have 100 fold increase.

All I offer is loaves and fishes that Jesus can choose to bless and multiply how he likes.

But it’s great to celebrate where we’ve come from before we get to where God wants us to be.

Join me as I celebrate what I feel God has prompted me to attempt and empowered me to accomplish.

These are all seeds. They can all grow into something beautiful.

I have so many more features to put into the APP. I have 165 episodes already planned for RevTrev Radio. I have audiobooks and audio devotionals planned for Live LIGHT Soundwise. Live LIGHT Academy...wow, first quarter 2021 look out. It’s course-apaloza on the verge of exploding. Not to mention books and e-books in fiction and non-fiction.

And oh yah, I spoke a series on The Harvest is Plentiful and from that mapped out a new course with the working title “Live LIGHT, Shine Bright - to help you move from regularly feeling guilty and less than you are because you’d rather outsource the Great Commission to being empowered by Holy Spirit to joyfully proclaim the Kingdom, reveal the Kingdom and Obey the King as you go in the day-to-day of your everyday.”

That’s a mouthful. I need to work on that. Everything in it’s time.

I can’t get caught up in the rush. I need times to reflect, times to remember.

Pauses help me remember that it is the stories that I hear about how things I do encourage and bless YOU that blesses me so much.

I get reminded that the only metric I’m interested in is the stories of lives finding peace at all times and in every situation.

Don’t let your seeds go to waste

You see why I took time to pause and consider and appreciate what’s been done.

Have you paused and considered what God’s been doing in your life? What fruit is Holy Spirit growing? What grace do you find yourself abounding in?

Tell me in the comments and let’s keep this discussion going.

By the way, you can share a video story with me and my connections at revtrev.com/mystory

I forgot... I planted that over this season as well. It’s cool technology. You can do it from the Live LIGHT App.

Verse on HONOUR

Philippians 2:2-4 The Message Don’t push your way to the front; don’t sweet-talk your way to the top. Put yourself aside, and help others get ahead. Don’t be obsessed with getting your own advantage. Forget yourselves long enough to lend a helping hand.

Thoughts on How to fight with HONOUR

When I started counselling couples, one of the first activities I had them do was to set up ground rules for fighting. If it was premarital counselling and the couple wasn’t living together the rules were a little airy-fairy. If the couple was in trouble they’d come back with rules, “Only slam the door once when you’re running away from the argument.

It didn’t take me long to develop this tool to give them. I’ve developed it further over time and encourage people to use it with whoever they need to confront about something. This works great to start any difficult conversation.

For couples I now recommend they dance their discussions. Either one can suggest a dance. Neither one can ever deny. Hold each other close, sway to some beat and don’t try to step on each others toes.

For non-married relationships we have tips to how to fight with HONOUR

Tips to How To Fight With HONOUR

Hone in on the topic at hand.

Speak to the situation “This is what you

did/said; this is why I disagree/it upset me.”

Only speak words of life.

Cut out the sarcasm, condemnation and shame.

Name calling and labels are never to be returned.

Resorting to name calling and labels is the same as placing curses on people. Don’t do it to them, even if they started it.

Operate in the present.

Avoid saying, “You always” and “You never”. Both are untrue and are used to simply cause pain. If you’re physically present with the person, look at them in the eye and don’t turn your back to them.

Understand the other person.

Listen to what they are saying. Reflect back what you think you hear and see. When they agreed you hear them, continue on.

Resolve the argument.

It’s OK to disagree. Allow them the right to hold their own opinion. Don’t go to bed angry. Don’t bring the argument up with others to rally support or curry pity; continue to honour the person. Remember it’s your job to choose to forgive and choose to bless.

Can I pray for you?

Holy Spirit thank you that you’ll give us the words to say whenever we need them. Thank you Jesus you’ll give us your love when we need more. Thank you Father you give us wisdom when we ask. Please be with those who are watching this because they need to confront someone about something. Help them to speak truth in love. Amen.
