I had received a call from a respected leader asking if I was available to serve on a planning team. I replied I’d be happy to and was told that my name was to be put in nomination for the team.
I told the individual that I harbor no illusions about anyone’s view of my suitability for any leadership role anywhere as I seem to have a reputation for poking hornets’ nests. And asking questions others skirt around. LOL! ………or simply don’t see as relevant. 🙃
The individual replied: “🤣 That’s what I call leadership, Cathy. You are able to have the difficult conversations and still love everyone regardless of how it turns out.”
I responded: “When one knows herself as a cherished child of the Great High King of the Universe few other opinions can upset you. You learn to smile right side up or upside down in this chaotic world. The Holy Spirit is not only timeless and omnipresent, He is not bound by gravity either, and is the ultimate bearer of the “righting reflex” (like a cat always landing on its feet….see Romans 8:28)
If I appear to be upside down with regard to solid ground at times, it’s because I live transcendently and have learned that God provides a soft landing for His transcendent and trusting children, always right in the palm of His hands.”
I received this back: “Profound!”
Just fact…… 😊
