Pruning Season
In these unprecedented times, it becomes very easy to lose your mojo! I mean, I get it! You binge watch your favorite TV show on Netflix and you don’t even realize you are on the last episode! It’s like, OK….WHAT IS NEXT????
I encourage you today to do some examination on your situation---that’s a great starting point. Some things you may realize that you feel really good about and then there are the other things that NEED TO CHANGE. You may really like your job, but are not excelling or progressing the way that you intended OR you may be progressing in your Job and realize that is not what your life’s purpose is. It’s pruning season babeeeey!!
If you are not aware of what pruning is, it is reducing the extent of something by removing unwanted parts. I do this with my plants regularly. I can look at my plants and tell when some of the leaves are dying. When you prune the dead leaves, your plant becomes restored. Did you know if you do not prune those dead leaves from your plants, then the nutrients go to the dead areas of the plant?? What exactly can vitamin filled, life building nutrients do to a plant with dead leaves? NADA..just bring the rest of the plant down with it.
What in your life needs to be pruned? What do you need to get rid of to make you THRIVE? Once you are aware of those things, people, places, past experiences, forgiveness, trauma, etc., and you prune those suckers, it will be such a beautiful transformation.
Listen, this is one of the most LIBERATING experiences that can occur in your life. I mean, just imagine you removed a toxic person from your life and you were able to finally flourish. Or let’s picture you setting boundaries to have a more flourishing work-life balance. The opportunities are endless my love!
I know it can be easy to get lost in your situation, however it's time to find yourself again. I encourage you to stand firm in your pruning. Pray and ask God for guidance, listen to your intuition---God lives there and knows exactly what he has for you.
Be Liberated!!
With Love,
Devyn

“Every Branch in me that does not bear fruit, he takes away and every branch that does bear fruit, he prunes so that it will bear more fruit”
