Time Away for the Fixer

I was able to get away a few days ago just to recharge spiritually and let God speak to me more clearly.  I really resisted going because I didn’t want to spend the money and I am a fixer so I felt like taking that time away would just put me further behind with what needed to be done.  I’m such an idiot sometimes.  I knew better.

God spoke to me about a few things but it wasn’t what I was hoping for.  It wasn’t about the next cool thing that will help Canvas or the next move I need to make as a leader.  He spoke to me about me.

He said (in different terms)…Be more concerned about what God is doing IN you than THROUGH you.  Its about what I’m becoming.  In short, if you are tuned into the Holy Spirit at work in your life, the rest will fall into place much easier.  Now, there is alot to staying “tuned into the Holy Spirit” but, nevertheless, for a fixer like me that was refreshing!
