I want to encourage you today. If you’re feeling discouraged or overwhelmed, I hope this message will encourage you. Maybe you feel like there is no way out of your present situation or there seems to be a mountain standing in your way.

 

At times like these, I remind myself that God has good plans for me and there is hope! When I have a feeling like this, I set aside some time to look into God’s Word, especially to read and think about the good news of salvation, the new life that Jesus brings, and the wonderful plan that He has for me.

 

I want you to understand that there is reason for you to be encouraged as well! I am here if you would like to talk about it.

Are you aware that God’s love not only has the power to change lives, but that it can be completely transformational?

 

A primary focus of my coaching is sharing with my clients our ability to tap into God’s love which allows an experience of healing and change.

 

In the embrace of God’s love, shame and guilt melt away and usher in purpose and hope.

 

Can you use some change in your life? Any need for God’s healing touch?

In today’s vocabulary, hope is often used to express a desire for something to happen or to be true. The original, and true meaning of the word hope, however, refers to a firm and certain expectation.

 

God gives us access to “a living hope” through the resurrection of Jesus (1 Peter 1:3). Hope is “a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul” (Hebrews 6:19). He is our hope!

 

Without true hope, the trials and troubles of this life will wear us down and take away our motivation to live the life that God would have us live – a life of abundance! 

 

Hope is manifested and materialized in the course of a helpful coaching relationship. Hope motivates both coach and client and provides a solid foundation for understanding and acquiring all that God has in mind for us.

 

What’s on your hope list for 2023? In what or, more importantly, in whom, are you placing your hope?

 

What are your goals for the year ahead? It would be my privilege to partner with you in building a foundation for true hope!

What are your hopes for 2023? 

 

It may sound strange, but my hope in this new year is that there will be widespread recognition of the Biblical truth that we have all been born into a spiritually broken world; each of us born with a spiritually flawed nature and that many will accept Jesus’ standing offer for a transformation that He will freely provide to those who ask. My hope is the basis for my vocational choice of ministry as a Christian life coach and includes an emphasis on promoting genuine transformation.

 

One of my goals centers on helping clients re-write their stories – like I have been re-writing mine – and, in partnership with the Holy Spirit, helping them to become the people that God made them to be.

 

My personal goal for 2023 is more perfectly stated in the words of the 1896 hymn by Frances Brook, “My goal is God Himself, not joy, nor peace, nor even blessing, but Himself, my God.”

 

Only God, only Jesus, is faithful. As Charles Stanley observes, “His commitment to you is lasting…His friendship never changes.” Jesus is Immanuel, God with us, to all those who believe and receive Him. He is always with us, a shoulder to lean on, our faithful companion and friend!

 

The challenges we’ve all experienced over the last few years have caused many of us to evaluate where we stand with God and to draw closer to Him. Many desire the transformation that only a relationship with Him can provide!

 

What are your hopes and goals for 2023? Are you ready for a transformation?

One of the highlights of Christmas for me is the focus on the message of hope!

 

In the first verse of his first letter to Timothy, Paul references “ the Lord Jesus Christ, our hope.”  Vine’s New Testament Expository Dictionary explains that the most frequent significance of the word “hope” relates to “a favorable and confident expectation” and “the happy anticipation of good”.

 

Without Jesus as our hope, we have no real, eternal hope. We are only left with speculation and confusion that abounds in our fallen world.

 

I celebrate the Christmas message of hope, the “confident expectation”, that putting our trust in Him brings the ultimate Christmas gift!

 

He is our hope!

 

What, or who, are you putting your hope in?

As the Lord encourages a closer walk with Him, my faith grows and becomes more integral to everything that I do.

 

A growing faith increases my desire to share my hope in Christ and helps me to assist clients to understand and experience the rest that only God can provide.

 

Faith also increases our comprehension of His love and cements our trust in Him to meet our deepest needs.

 

God alone is worthy of our worship and He is always faithful to keep His promises to us. When we have faith in Him, we can experience genuine rest and His great love. 

 

Many tend to look to their partner to meet needs that can only be met by the Lord.  

 

Who or what are you putting your faith in? To whom are you looking to meet your needs?

The length of time before my own awakening to the reality of being deeply wounded from abortion has caused me concern over the uncounted women and men out there who have been needlessly suffering from a similar wound. Their suffering has probably been unacknowledged and silent despite the severity of damage at their core. Additionally, there has been a negative impact on relationships with spouses, children and friends.

 

My goal as a coach is to reach out and help others who are suffering from similar wounds by leading them to an understanding and acceptance of the gift that only the Lord, the One who can heal all wounds, including the wounds of abortion, can provide. The words of Sarah Young are encouraging: “Offering help to hurting people gives meaning to your suffering – and glory to God.”

 

God has provided a clear path for the transfer of our suffering to Him. It is always exciting to me to have the opportunity to share my knowledge and experience in helping others to put this suffering behind them and, at the same time enhance their relationship with God.

 

I love this quote by Richard Foster, “We can be assured of this: God, who knows all and sees all, will set all things straight in the end. Even better, He will dry every tear. In the meantime, He mysteriously takes our sorrows and uses them to heal the world.” 

 

So many of us need the healing, hope and the touch that only our Father can provide.

 

I have been personally blessed by His touch! 

 

Do you need His touch, too?

God is the ultimate source of our hope.

When we put our trust in Him, the Holy Spirit inside of us fills us with peace and joy.

The hope He gives empowers us to move forward, find our purpose and please Him.

I couldn’t be an effective coach without hope.

I share in my clients’ hope for changes that they recognize as important to find their purpose, to move forward and to reach their goals.

What or who are you putting your hope in?
