On Day 5 we had to trek up a steep hill. So we grabbed some protein bars and plenty of water, took a deep breath and made our way.
Today we had to really dig deep and we were not sure what we would find, but we needed to go deep inside ourselves. We had to communicate how we were evaluating our worth. We had to share what were some of the temporal things that we were connecting our worth to.
Many of us had a hard time with this one and it took us awhile to get to the top of that hill. It was a daunting task. Again, we had to go over that hill in order to reach our next destination on the path to worthy.
The butterfly’s journey is not an easy one. When we see the beauty of the butterfly and amaze at its ability to be free to fly and dance among the flowers of the field, we fail to realize the journey that it had to take to get to that scene. It has to change. In its process it actually liquefies while in the cocoon so that it can become what it is intended to be!
That is where our journey took us on this day. We had to look deep inside for all the flawed ways that we have equated our worth. We are so used to connecting our worth with temporal things of the world which may be counter productive to the way that God values our worth. Because of years of evaluating ourselves that way it is hard to then change.
This exercise was super important to this pivot part of our journey. This is the part where the scales on our eyes can start being removed and in turn we can begin our transformation to our “true” worth and purpose!
Keep moving we will meet you there!
