I'm from the United States.

19
00:00:59.000 --> 00:01:02.000
Where about in the States are you from?

It's called Rising Sun, Maryland. It's near Baltimore.

Oh, my God. Rising Sun. I love that.

00:01:09.000 --> 00:01:11.000
But it's on the Chesapeake Bay.

00:01:11.000 --> 00:01:14.000
Okay, cool.

You're from Farmington, Utah.

00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:21.000
Love it.

How are you?

32
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:45.000
To all Americans, I was born and raised in New York City.

33
00:01:45.000 --> 00:01:50.000
New York. Love that city.

34
00:01:50.000 --> 00:01:53.000
Yeah.

35
00:01:53.000 --> 00:01:55.000

36
00:01:55.000 --> 00:02:00.000
Yeah.

37
00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:07.000
Yeah, there's a lot of places like that right now in the world.

00:02:14.000 --> 00:02:16.000

41
00:02:16.000 --> 00:02:19.000
Good. Good, good.

42
00:02:19.000 --> 00:02:24.000
Hi.

43
00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:29.000
And we've got Wally. Hi, Wally.

44
00:02:29.000 --> 00:02:31.000
It's okay if you don't want to come on the screen or say,

45
00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:38.000
we just wanted to say hi.

46
00:02:38.000 --> 00:02:42.000
I'm currently in my friends, my beautiful Kiwi friends office. I.

47
00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:48.000
I haven't had hot water or heat in my.

48
00:02:48.000 --> 00:02:50.000

00:02:53.000 --> 00:02:57.000

00:02:57.000 --> 00:02:59.000
We're just rolling with it. We're just having a great day.

52
00:02:59.000 --> 00:03:00.000
It's going to be awesome.

53
00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:01.000
Awesome.

54
00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:02.000
Yeah.

00:03:02.000 --> 00:03:05.000
It's going to be great. Well, we're so glad that you've all come.

56
00:03:05.000 --> 00:03:09.000
This has been something that we've been really.

00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:17.000
Excited about and wanting just to connect with you to say hello.

58
00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:18.000

I'm so excited to be a part of this.

00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:29.000
And yeah,

just explore what does kingdom creativity look like and how do we

63
00:03:33.000 --> 00:03:35.000
grow in our craft? How do we grow in our expression?

64
00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:36.000
Ultimately,

65
00:03:36.000 --> 00:03:40.000
how do we just grow in a relationship with the Lord and allow his

66
00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:41.000
presence, his life,

67
00:03:41.000 --> 00:03:44.000

68
00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:45.000
through creativity.

00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:46.000
Yeah.

And I'm going to hand it over to Zion.

83

00:04:21.000 --> 00:04:22.000

87
00:04:22.000 --> 00:04:24.000
You're definitely involved in with your life, your journey,

88

89
00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:27.000
And we'll kind of go from there, but I'll hand it over to Zion.

00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:28.000
Hey, thank you.

in one minute, that'd be really nice to start with, you know.

107
00:05:24.280 --> 00:05:26.000
I'll go first.

108
00:05:26.000 --> 00:05:29.520
I'm Zylan, actually I live in India,

00:05:29.520 --> 00:05:31.400

Diana, you can just jump in and, you know

120
00:06:11.120 --> 00:06:13.760

00:06:15.760 --> 00:06:17.360
We're partnering together.

122
00:06:17.360 --> 00:06:18.200

So who wants to go next?

127
00:06:29.480 --> 00:06:30.760
Who wants to kind of share a little bit

128
00:06:30.760 --> 00:06:34.120
about your art and your story, creativity?

129
00:06:36.240 --> 00:06:37.560
I can go.

130
00:06:37.560 --> 00:06:38.640
Awesome.

131
00:06:38.640 --> 00:06:40.000
My name is Scott Miller.

132
00:06:40.920 --> 00:06:43.200
I live in Calgary, Alberta.

133
00:06:43.200 --> 00:06:48.200
And years ago in 2016, I had a vision

134
00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:52.600
of a painting I need to make and a book I need to write.

135
00:06:52.600 --> 00:06:54.800
Basically when I had the vision

136
00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:56.960
I suddenly knew all kinds of stuff.

137
00:06:56.960 --> 00:06:58.960
It was supernatural.

138
00:06:58.960 --> 00:07:02.400
I knew all kinds of things that I did not know before.

139
00:07:02.400 --> 00:07:06.080
So when people talk about, well, I was dying or I died

140
00:07:06.080 --> 00:07:09.440
and my life flew before my eyes, flashed before my eyes

141
00:07:09.440 --> 00:07:13.160
I know what they can, I have some idea what that is

142
00:07:13.160 --> 00:07:16.360
because all of a sudden I knew so much

143
00:07:16.360 --> 00:07:20.400
that I could not have learned by studying.

144
00:07:20.400 --> 00:07:22.880
And it happened in a fraction of a second.

145
00:07:22.880 --> 00:07:27.040
But basically the painting I put on my background here

146
00:07:27.040 --> 00:07:31.200
I'll kind of scoot to the side so you can see the painting.

147
00:07:31.200 --> 00:07:32.040
Wow.

148
00:07:32.040 --> 00:07:37.040
But the painting has multiple subliminal images

149
00:07:40.200 --> 00:07:41.080
from scripture.

150
00:07:41.080 --> 00:07:44.640
Everything is a symbol representing something

151
00:07:44.640 --> 00:07:46.280
from the scriptures.

152
00:07:47.200 --> 00:07:51.400
And there's a thousand teaching messages in the painting.

153
00:07:53.280 --> 00:07:55.120
So that's it.

154
00:07:55.120 --> 00:07:57.600
Also, I do graphics on the side.

155
00:07:57.600 --> 00:08:01.880
I'm a fundraising salesman for my job

156
00:08:01.880 --> 00:08:04.280
and I do graphics for my brother.

157
00:08:04.280 --> 00:08:06.440
I do graphics for a car dealership.

158
00:08:08.520 --> 00:08:09.920
That's about it.

159
00:08:09.920 --> 00:08:10.760
Wow.

160
00:08:10.760 --> 00:08:11.600
That's awesome Scott.

161
00:08:11.600 --> 00:08:12.440
Thank you for that.

162
00:08:12.440 --> 00:08:13.280
Thank you.

163
00:08:13.280 --> 00:08:14.120
I love that.

164
00:08:14.120 --> 00:08:15.880
That painting is incredible.

165
00:08:16.440 --> 00:08:18.560
Like, wow.

166
00:08:18.560 --> 00:08:19.400
So beautiful.

167
00:08:19.400 --> 00:08:23.400
Also one second, the painting is almost finished

168
00:08:23.400 --> 00:08:26.120
and the book, I'm writing a book based on the painting

169
00:08:26.120 --> 00:08:29.360
giving the details of the symbolism of the paint.

170
00:08:29.360 --> 00:08:30.600
The book has just begun.

171
00:08:30.600 --> 00:08:32.039
I did the introduction.

172
00:08:32.039 --> 00:08:34.080
It's about six pages long.

173
00:08:34.080 --> 00:08:34.919
Okay.

174
00:08:34.919 --> 00:08:37.000
And I'm still working on it, but it's been,

175
00:08:38.039 --> 00:08:40.280
hell has come against me.

176
00:08:40.280 --> 00:08:42.760
It seems to keep me from writing the book

177
00:08:42.760 --> 00:08:43.919
and doing the painting.

178
00:08:44.920 --> 00:08:45.760
Yeah.

179
00:08:47.680 --> 00:08:48.520
That's great.

180
00:08:48.520 --> 00:08:49.360
Yeah.

181
00:08:49.360 --> 00:08:53.200
We just ask for heaven's peace and Shalom

182
00:08:53.200 --> 00:08:58.120
to be released upon you that all of hell would be pushed back

183
00:08:58.120 --> 00:09:01.480
and that every fiery dart of the enemy would just fall

184
00:09:01.480 --> 00:09:04.280
and that you would know the fiery protection of the Lord

185
00:09:04.280 --> 00:09:06.800
and the encouragement and just,

186
00:09:06.800 --> 00:09:09.920
that you would just have angels on assignments

187
00:09:09.920 --> 00:09:12.120
flooding your home and your space.

188
00:09:12.520 --> 00:09:14.480
And every time you go to write and create

189
00:09:14.480 --> 00:09:16.920
there would just be a new surge of the spirit of wisdom

190
00:09:16.920 --> 00:09:20.560
and revelation and creativity would be released over you.

191
00:09:20.560 --> 00:09:22.920
And that everything that the enemy has sought to steal,

192
00:09:22.920 --> 00:09:23.760
kill and destroy,

193
00:09:23.760 --> 00:09:27.200
you would have a hundred fold blessing in return

194
00:09:27.200 --> 00:09:28.040
in Jesus name.

195
00:09:28.040 --> 00:09:29.280
Thank you.

196
00:09:29.280 --> 00:09:30.120
Yeah.

197
00:09:30.120 --> 00:09:30.960
Bless you, Scott.

198
00:09:30.960 --> 00:09:31.800
Thank you for sharing that.

199
00:09:33.480 --> 00:09:34.840
Who wants to go next?

200
00:09:43.080 --> 00:09:43.920
Come on, be brave.

201
00:09:43.920 --> 00:09:44.920
I'll speak up.

202
00:09:44.920 --> 00:09:46.520
Yeah, there you go.

203
00:09:46.520 --> 00:09:48.040
I'm not afraid.

204
00:09:48.040 --> 00:09:52.120
My name is Jim Sims or James, as my parents would call me.

205
00:09:53.400 --> 00:09:54.960
My mother was a Christian.

206
00:09:56.120 --> 00:09:59.560
I became a musician at a young age and I went.

207
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:04.240
other way into the other music of the rock and roll scene.

208
00:10:04.240 --> 00:10:12.240
And I came to the Lord in, I think, the end of 1987.

209
00:10:12.240 --> 00:10:18.280
But anyhow, early in January 1988, I was sleeping.

210
00:10:18.280 --> 00:10:21.960
I began to sleep one evening, an hour or so after I went to sleep.

211
00:10:21.960 --> 00:10:33.520
I was startled awake in a vision in which I saw a blinding light and I fell face down

212
00:10:33.520 --> 00:10:39.120
on the floor in the vision, even though I was still lying on my back in the bed.

213
00:10:39.120 --> 00:10:46.480
And when I fell face at the floor, I realized I was at the feet of the Lord and all shining

214
00:10:46.480 --> 00:10:51.000
bronze kind of golden sandals.

215
00:10:51.000 --> 00:10:58.840
But I also saw like a white dazzling presence and all I heard was a voice say, follow me.

216
00:10:58.840 --> 00:11:04.480
And when that happened, I was like completely struck as a death.

217
00:11:04.480 --> 00:11:08.600
As you see in the scripture, sometimes everything drained out of my life.

218
00:11:08.600 --> 00:11:13.680
And I was like realizing that I had been walking in a lot of pride.

219
00:11:13.680 --> 00:11:17.640
And so my heart was like, yes, sir, I'll never do it again.

220
00:11:17.640 --> 00:11:25.640
It was almost like he was the commander of the army of the host and he was like the supreme

221
00:11:25.640 --> 00:11:26.640
leader of all things.

222
00:11:26.640 --> 00:11:30.320
And I had that revelation of the power of Jesus.

223
00:11:30.320 --> 00:11:32.800
And I was like, I'm grease on the floor.

224
00:11:32.800 --> 00:11:44.760
So I am absolutely repenting of all my selfishness and 100% in now, you know, because my question

225
00:11:44.760 --> 00:11:50.680
was a few months before that, if you're really real God, prove it kind of arrogantly, like

226
00:11:50.680 --> 00:11:55.080
if you're real, prove it, you know, well, that proved it and I was blown away.

227
00:11:55.080 --> 00:12:02.120
So from that point forward, I just read the Bible, I believe the stuff in the Bible and

228
00:12:02.120 --> 00:12:05.680
I walked up and down the streets where I lived and I prayed for people and they got healed

229
00:12:05.680 --> 00:12:10.400
and various things happened and I was like, okay, and then I went to church and then they

230
00:12:10.480 --> 00:12:15.320
taught me, you're not really, you know, supposed to do that stuff.

231
00:12:15.320 --> 00:12:18.920
And I'm like, well, why, why don't you?

232
00:12:18.920 --> 00:12:26.880
And then so they sort of got me coming back to a less intimate place and it wasn't their

233
00:12:26.880 --> 00:12:27.880
fault.

234
00:12:27.880 --> 00:12:30.360
It was just that I got distracted.

235
00:12:30.360 --> 00:12:38.800
And then I lived kind of a cooling down period for three or four years and then for a while.

236
00:12:38.880 --> 00:12:47.080
And recently in the last, well, from that point forward, I did a lot of stuff in churches.

237
00:12:47.080 --> 00:12:52.240
As Benji would say, I went up the tree of the knowledge of good and did a lot of church

238
00:12:52.240 --> 00:12:56.160
work and played a lot of worship and I write poetry and sing songs.

239
00:12:56.160 --> 00:13:02.800
And so I did a lot of that and it was really partially blessed a lot.

240
00:13:02.800 --> 00:13:07.960
And you know, the Lord led me to meet my wife and get married and we both sing and praise

241
00:13:08.120 --> 00:13:09.120
God together.

242
00:13:09.120 --> 00:13:10.120
And we do worship.

243
00:13:10.120 --> 00:13:14.440
It's really blessed, but it's, you know, there's a cap on that blessing.

244
00:13:14.440 --> 00:13:23.880
And then in the last like three or four years, I felt like the book of, I guess it's Exodus

245
00:13:23.880 --> 00:13:26.280
where they talk about Moses in the Red Sea.

246
00:13:26.280 --> 00:13:30.720
And I felt like the Lord would thank, let my people go that they can come out and work.

247
00:13:30.720 --> 00:13:36.200
So I resigned from work a little early and they were like, why are you leaving?

248
00:13:36.200 --> 00:13:37.960
You're doing really well at this job.

249
00:13:37.960 --> 00:13:42.640
So I'm like, well, I feel like the Lord wants me to get a part with him.

250
00:13:42.640 --> 00:13:48.600
So actually pulled away in summer of 2018 to spend time with the Lord, which prepared

251
00:13:48.600 --> 00:13:50.920
me for 2019.

252
00:13:50.920 --> 00:13:58.320
So when 2019 came, I was already in that quiet kind of space with God and I've been really

253
00:13:58.320 --> 00:14:01.080
pursuing God and I've been learning all father's heart.

254
00:14:01.080 --> 00:14:07.600
So from that point forward, when I, when I connected with Benji and his sonship stuff

255
00:14:07.600 --> 00:14:13.400
and then Nancy Cohen, and then all of a sudden I was like, wow, I really need to get with

256
00:14:13.400 --> 00:14:14.400
the Lord.

257
00:14:14.400 --> 00:14:17.640
And then I heard these amazing poems by Chloe and stuff.

258
00:14:17.640 --> 00:14:22.400
And I was just decided to get into this all the way and really get to know you guys.

259
00:14:22.400 --> 00:14:23.880
So God bless you all.

260
00:14:23.880 --> 00:14:25.760
Here I am.

261
00:14:25.760 --> 00:14:28.000
So good to hear your story, Jim.

262
00:14:28.000 --> 00:14:29.000
Thank you for sharing.

263
00:14:29.000 --> 00:14:30.000
Yeah.

264
00:14:30.000 --> 00:14:31.000
Thank you.

265
00:14:31.120 --> 00:14:34.680
I've had a lot of other things since then, but I can't go into all those in a minute.

266
00:14:34.680 --> 00:14:38.960
So that's the three minute, one minute version.

267
00:14:38.960 --> 00:14:39.960
Awesome.

268
00:14:39.960 --> 00:14:40.960
So good.

269
00:14:40.960 --> 00:14:49.680
So who else wants to share just, yeah, where you're from, what you're currently doing creatively,

270
00:14:49.680 --> 00:14:53.080
what kind of season you're walking in right now?

271
00:14:53.080 --> 00:14:54.080
Yeah.

272
00:14:54.080 --> 00:14:56.440
You go for it.

273
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:13.960
I'm from Cape Town, and I've always had both art and literature, but was in 20 years of

274
00:15:13.960 --> 00:15:23.280
writing and editing, and did a fiction course, and I want to write a children's book, and

275
00:15:23.280 --> 00:15:34.040
I want to paint, and I want to help people make things, and I'm just starting all of

276
00:15:34.040 --> 00:15:35.040
that now.

277
00:15:35.040 --> 00:15:36.040
Wow.

278
00:15:36.040 --> 00:15:37.040
Amazing.

279
00:15:37.040 --> 00:15:38.040
That's incredible.

280
00:15:38.040 --> 00:15:44.680
So, you're starting kind of all of that now?

281
00:15:44.680 --> 00:15:49.360
Sorry, it was kind of cutting in and out a little bit.

282
00:15:49.360 --> 00:15:52.680
Would so love to just hear from you.

283
00:15:52.680 --> 00:16:03.000
Yeah, I always had to tell myself that I can do more than one thing.

284
00:16:03.000 --> 00:16:05.000
Sorry about the internet.

285
00:16:05.000 --> 00:16:07.000
That's okay.

286
00:16:07.000 --> 00:16:08.000
Yeah.

287
00:16:08.000 --> 00:16:09.000
Okay.

288
00:16:09.000 --> 00:16:10.000
Beautiful.

289
00:16:10.000 --> 00:16:13.880
So, okay, so there's painting, you wanted to write a book.

290
00:16:13.880 --> 00:16:14.880
What was the other thing?

291
00:16:14.880 --> 00:16:19.760
I'm so sorry, I was trying to hear.

292
00:16:19.760 --> 00:16:27.480
I want to make things out of, I want to do textile art, and I want to make things out

293
00:16:27.480 --> 00:16:37.920
of, like, use innovation to make things out of, like, even unrecyclable plastics to create

294
00:16:37.920 --> 00:16:43.760
products that people can make in order to make, to earn a living.

295
00:16:43.760 --> 00:16:44.760
Love it.

296
00:16:44.760 --> 00:16:45.760
Wow.

297
00:16:45.760 --> 00:16:46.760
Amazing.

298
00:16:46.760 --> 00:16:47.760
That's amazing.

299
00:16:47.760 --> 00:16:48.760
Wow.

300
00:16:49.760 --> 00:16:56.080
May the Lord just continue to release so much creativity and like inspiration and like blueprints

301
00:16:56.080 --> 00:17:02.200
of just how to do that, how to bring innovation and creativity and wealth from that and to

302
00:17:02.200 --> 00:17:06.359
produce beautiful things that you can bless people with.

303
00:17:06.359 --> 00:17:07.359
Love it.

304
00:17:07.359 --> 00:17:22.280
Who wants to go next, you beautiful people?

305
00:17:22.280 --> 00:17:25.200
I think everybody's actually waiting for someone else.

306
00:17:25.200 --> 00:17:26.200
Okay.

307
00:17:26.200 --> 00:17:27.200
I'll go.

308
00:17:27.200 --> 00:17:28.200
Okay.

309
00:17:28.200 --> 00:17:40.640
My name is Sandra Scott, I'm in Farmington, Utah, I spent most of all of my years on the

310
00:17:40.640 --> 00:17:46.880
East Coast in Maryland around the water, and the Lord sovereignly moved us out to Utah

311
00:17:46.880 --> 00:17:49.880
in 2017.

312
00:17:49.880 --> 00:17:53.840
And it's been a journey, quite a journey.

313
00:17:53.840 --> 00:18:01.040
But the Lord, I came from a, my sister was a very gifted, is a very gifted artist, and

314
00:18:01.040 --> 00:18:09.560
six years older, and I was always the one that was analytical, mathematical, not, I

315
00:18:09.560 --> 00:18:14.560
was creative, but not, I didn't think it was creative like she was.

316
00:18:14.560 --> 00:18:21.160
And so the Lord has been in this season of my life, helping me to connect with that part

317
00:18:21.160 --> 00:18:22.160
of my identity.

318
00:18:22.480 --> 00:18:25.400
I had a really beautiful encounter recently.

319
00:18:25.400 --> 00:18:28.120
I love to write.

320
00:18:28.120 --> 00:18:29.120
I do.

321
00:18:29.120 --> 00:18:30.120
I love to write.

322
00:18:30.120 --> 00:18:38.080
I've been told I have a gift with words and have had a prophetic word to write a devotional.

323
00:18:38.080 --> 00:18:41.280
So that's in my heart to do.

324
00:18:41.280 --> 00:18:49.720
But recently, I had an encounter with this place with the Lord where this just this cry

325
00:18:49.760 --> 00:18:52.600
came out of me, literally like this.

326
00:18:52.600 --> 00:18:59.760
He calls it my sacred cry, and he entitled it the sacred cry of me.

327
00:18:59.760 --> 00:19:03.240
And it was quite, and it was quite deep and quite beautiful.

328
00:19:03.240 --> 00:19:09.320
And right after that deep weeping came this flow of words.

329
00:19:09.320 --> 00:19:12.320
And it was a, it was a beautiful poem.

330
00:19:12.320 --> 00:19:15.920
And that had never happened to me before, the creative flow.

331
00:19:15.920 --> 00:19:22.280
It was more from this aspect, you know, the, the, and, and the writing and whatnot that

332
00:19:22.280 --> 00:19:27.120
comes out of that place of loving to read and, and just wanting the Lord.

333
00:19:27.120 --> 00:19:29.840
He said, well, Sandra, I am the word.

334
00:19:29.840 --> 00:19:36.280
And so it's just been that connection with him at a deeper place of a creative flow and

335
00:19:36.280 --> 00:19:39.320
that experience with the poetry.

336
00:19:39.320 --> 00:19:44.880
So I believe that this season of my life is helping me get more in touch with, is it the

337
00:19:44.880 --> 00:19:46.600
right side of the brain?

338
00:19:46.600 --> 00:19:48.160
It's the creative side.

339
00:19:48.160 --> 00:19:49.160
I think so.

340
00:19:49.160 --> 00:19:50.160
Yeah.

341
00:19:50.160 --> 00:19:51.160
Yeah.

342
00:19:51.160 --> 00:19:56.800
So, and I'm also, I'm also do dance where he'll just come on me and this expression

343
00:19:56.800 --> 00:20:00.000
will come out with flags and, and expressions.

344
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:05.000
with music and it's definitely an anointing that he gives me

345
00:20:05.720 --> 00:20:07.560
because these movements will come

346
00:20:07.560 --> 00:20:11.200
and it's like it's bypassing your natural ability

347
00:20:11.200 --> 00:20:12.440
and just flows.

348
00:20:12.440 --> 00:20:16.320
And so he's helping me understand the difference

349
00:20:16.320 --> 00:20:19.880
between those two facets of expression.

350
00:20:19.880 --> 00:20:22.600
And, but the poem was in a way.

351
00:20:22.600 --> 00:20:25.020
So I'm just starting out on my journey,

352
00:20:26.440 --> 00:20:29.160
wanting to really get in touch with,

353
00:20:29.160 --> 00:20:33.360
I love creativity coming out of my father was a architect.

354
00:20:33.360 --> 00:20:35.360
And again, my sister, an artist

355
00:20:35.360 --> 00:20:37.920
and I never saw myself as a creative.

356
00:20:37.920 --> 00:20:41.200
So he's helped me kind of moving that out of the way

357
00:20:41.200 --> 00:20:43.920
and saying, no, this flow is in you

358
00:20:43.920 --> 00:20:46.480
because you tapped into that in me.

359
00:20:46.480 --> 00:20:47.360
So I'm excited.

360
00:20:47.360 --> 00:20:49.160
I'm very excited.

361
00:20:49.160 --> 00:20:50.580
I love that.

362
00:20:53.320 --> 00:20:56.360
Do you know, I remember hearing something years ago

363
00:20:56.360 --> 00:20:57.840
and it was so liberating

364
00:20:57.840 --> 00:21:01.620
and it's something that I always love to tell everyone

365
00:21:01.620 --> 00:21:03.720
is that we have this wrestle.

366
00:21:03.720 --> 00:21:05.960
I think, am I creative enough?

367
00:21:05.960 --> 00:21:07.920
Is my creativity worth something?

368
00:21:07.920 --> 00:21:08.760
Is it good enough?

369
00:21:08.760 --> 00:21:10.800
Is it going to be celebrated?

370
00:21:10.800 --> 00:21:15.340
And the reality is, is that all children are born creative.

371
00:21:15.340 --> 00:21:17.100
All humans are born creative.

372
00:21:17.100 --> 00:21:18.760
When you put them in preschool,

373
00:21:18.760 --> 00:21:21.360
when you put music on, they all dance.

374
00:21:21.360 --> 00:21:23.800
When you put them with paints and colors,

375
00:21:23.800 --> 00:21:27.200
they're all creative and somewhere along the line,

376
00:21:27.200 --> 00:21:29.240
the enemy knows the power of creativity

377
00:21:29.240 --> 00:21:32.800
and he goes to work on trying to shut our creativity down

378
00:21:32.800 --> 00:21:36.080
with comparison, whether it's siblings or friends

379
00:21:36.080 --> 00:21:36.920
or the world.

380
00:21:36.920 --> 00:21:39.080
And we think, is who I am enough?

381
00:21:39.080 --> 00:21:42.600
Is the beauty of who I am, what I can create enough?

382
00:21:42.600 --> 00:21:44.400
And is it worthy of celebration?

383
00:21:44.400 --> 00:21:47.080
And there are some people that are just so brilliant

384
00:21:47.080 --> 00:21:49.760
and their creativity is outrageous

385
00:21:49.760 --> 00:21:51.940
and their gift is next level.

386
00:21:51.940 --> 00:21:53.840
And so sometimes we can think,

387
00:21:53.840 --> 00:21:56.480
is my little one talent gift or two talent gift

388
00:21:56.720 --> 00:22:00.760
or whatever we put value on, we can wrestle with that.

389
00:22:00.760 --> 00:22:04.080
And so the beauty and the redemption of the father's voice

390
00:22:04.080 --> 00:22:07.360
in our life is to say who we are is perfect

391
00:22:07.360 --> 00:22:09.840
and who we are made in his image

392
00:22:09.840 --> 00:22:11.800
and what we've been given to do

393
00:22:11.800 --> 00:22:15.680
and the expression of that in our humanity is worthy

394
00:22:15.680 --> 00:22:16.800
and it's beautiful.

395
00:22:16.800 --> 00:22:19.400
And I love hearing your story

396
00:22:19.400 --> 00:22:21.840
of just how the Lord's voice has been unlocking that

397
00:22:21.840 --> 00:22:23.760
and uncapping that.

398
00:22:23.760 --> 00:22:26.600
In all of us, we're constantly on the journey

399
00:22:26.600 --> 00:22:30.080
of feeling the father's affirmation, his celebration,

400
00:22:30.080 --> 00:22:33.400
his voice to give identity to us

401
00:22:33.400 --> 00:22:36.960
and confidence and authority rather than trying

402
00:22:36.960 --> 00:22:39.640
to get validation from the world or other people,

403
00:22:39.640 --> 00:22:42.240
even though we need affirmation, celebration

404
00:22:42.240 --> 00:22:45.320
and validation from people, it first and foremost

405
00:22:45.320 --> 00:22:48.640
really has to come from that place from the father.

406
00:22:48.640 --> 00:22:51.000
And that's also the beautiful thing of the prophetic

407
00:22:51.000 --> 00:22:54.480
is when you have people who see you, see the gold in you,

408
00:22:54.480 --> 00:22:57.000
see the gift that may be dormant in you,

409
00:22:57.000 --> 00:22:59.240
see the gift that maybe got shut down,

410
00:22:59.240 --> 00:23:03.600
be the gift that from whatever happened, trauma, pain,

411
00:23:03.600 --> 00:23:06.200
illness, or just life circumstances,

412
00:23:06.200 --> 00:23:08.960
maybe you never were given an avenue or an on-ramp

413
00:23:08.960 --> 00:23:13.480
or the resource or the ability to explore the creativity

414
00:23:13.480 --> 00:23:14.320
that you wanted to.

415
00:23:14.320 --> 00:23:15.880
And then the father comes after you

416
00:23:15.880 --> 00:23:19.240
because the father is so committed to his sons

417
00:23:19.240 --> 00:23:22.720
and daughters being fully released in the glory

418
00:23:22.720 --> 00:23:25.520
of who he's created them to be in their dream,

419
00:23:25.520 --> 00:23:28.400
in their desire, in the way that he made them to be.

420
00:23:28.400 --> 00:23:31.760
And so his passion, his word, his presence is like,

421
00:23:31.760 --> 00:23:35.720
I'm gonna pursue you because I wanna see all of you

422
00:23:35.720 --> 00:23:36.560
fully expressed.

423
00:23:36.560 --> 00:23:37.960
I wanna see abundant life.

424
00:23:37.960 --> 00:23:41.160
So whether it's through writing or cooking or sewing

425
00:23:41.160 --> 00:23:46.160
or dancing or music or singing or whatever expression,

426
00:23:46.720 --> 00:23:50.840
poetry, making things, creating things,

427
00:23:50.840 --> 00:23:52.160
whatever it looks like,

428
00:23:52.160 --> 00:23:56.160
it's never underestimate the power of your creativity

429
00:23:56.160 --> 00:23:57.840
because maybe it's not for the masses,

430
00:23:57.840 --> 00:24:01.520
but maybe it's for one, or maybe it's for a smaller group,

431
00:24:01.520 --> 00:24:04.000
but the power of it is so beautiful

432
00:24:04.000 --> 00:24:06.320
because it's an expression of who you are.

433
00:24:06.320 --> 00:24:08.760
So thank you for sharing that, Sandra.

434
00:24:08.760 --> 00:24:10.640
It was so amazing to hear just.

435
00:24:11.520 --> 00:24:12.880
One more thing too,

436
00:24:13.160 --> 00:24:17.360
I feel like I need to share for everyone's benefit is,

437
00:24:17.360 --> 00:24:21.280
my daughter is artistic, she paints

438
00:24:21.280 --> 00:24:24.000
and she would go out into, I made her a studio

439
00:24:24.000 --> 00:24:26.600
and she would go out into her studio.

440
00:24:26.600 --> 00:24:31.000
And if I came out there while she was in that place

441
00:24:31.000 --> 00:24:36.000
of connection to the expression, she was very upset.

442
00:24:36.800 --> 00:24:39.720
And so she explained to me, she said,

443
00:24:39.720 --> 00:24:43.120
she said, mom, she said, it's an intimate place

444
00:24:43.120 --> 00:24:46.360
when you're there and you're connecting

445
00:24:46.360 --> 00:24:49.560
to that depth of expression that's in you.

446
00:24:49.560 --> 00:24:51.280
And it would comes out

447
00:24:51.280 --> 00:24:54.640
and it makes itself present before you.

448
00:24:54.640 --> 00:24:56.200
If someone comes up

449
00:24:56.200 --> 00:24:59.400
and doesn't understand the intimacy of that.

450
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:07.040
And so I believe that the Lord wants us as his sons and daughters to begin to really

451
00:25:08.160 --> 00:25:16.080
value that in one another and honor that because it's holy and it's intimate. And when it comes

452
00:25:16.080 --> 00:25:22.560
out of that flow, when it comes out of that place of connection with him, it is intimate and

453
00:25:22.640 --> 00:25:30.400
beautiful. And that there's not enough honor, I think, that is given to that, you know, that

454
00:25:31.120 --> 00:25:35.520
it's kind of a little more, and I'm not saying everybody, but I just think in general,

455
00:25:35.520 --> 00:25:41.760
not understanding the depth where you go when that is untapped. It's very intimate.

456
00:25:42.480 --> 00:25:47.920
Yeah, it's very vulnerable. Creativity is vulnerable because it's personal. It's an

457
00:25:47.920 --> 00:25:54.720
expression of you, which is why you need to be kind of guarded and protected in those early

458
00:25:54.720 --> 00:26:02.880
stages of expression of, because it's kind of in that infant stage, you know, it's in seed form

459
00:26:02.880 --> 00:26:09.040
growing. And so there's kind of guarding your heart and going, not everybody is going to jump

460
00:26:09.040 --> 00:26:13.280
in and celebrate and go, wow, that's a great idea. Or, wow, that was amazing. You know,

461
00:26:13.280 --> 00:26:18.400
some people are, so you need to be around those safe people that understand vulnerability and

462
00:26:18.400 --> 00:26:25.440
what's emerging. And because sometimes I know, even in my life of creating or writing something,

463
00:26:26.000 --> 00:26:31.440
you want to share that song or that idea with someone that is going to be a cheerleader.

464
00:26:31.440 --> 00:26:36.480
And then you also want people that are able to give honest feedback because sometimes it really

465
00:26:36.480 --> 00:26:41.280
wasn't a good song and they love you. And they're like, you are created to write music that's going

466
00:26:41.280 --> 00:26:46.400
to change the world. That's going to bless people. That's going to release heaven. I love that. And

467
00:26:46.400 --> 00:26:51.040
they can celebrate the good in it, but go, Oh, maybe, maybe you could just look at that chorus

468
00:26:51.040 --> 00:26:56.240
or maybe, and that's where skill and gifting comes in when people can actually work on your craft or

469
00:26:56.240 --> 00:27:03.040
whatever it is, but you are totally right in that stage of actually awakening and actually having

470
00:27:03.040 --> 00:27:08.560
the courage and the bravery to release and to be intimate with the Lord. And then to,

471
00:27:09.360 --> 00:27:15.040
to actually create, it's incredibly vulnerable. It's really vulnerable. So that's why we all

472
00:27:15.040 --> 00:27:22.080
need safe people in our life that love us, that see us for who we are and we can express our need

473
00:27:22.080 --> 00:27:26.160
and we can actually be powerful in our communication of, Hey, this is really vulnerable

474
00:27:26.160 --> 00:27:31.760
for me. I want to share something with you. Can you let me know what you think? And I also really

475
00:27:31.760 --> 00:27:36.240
need your encouragement. You know what I mean? I maybe let people know, I don't necessarily need

476
00:27:36.240 --> 00:27:40.880
your critique on that. It's like a 10 out of 10 or an eight out of 10. I just need, what did you

477
00:27:40.880 --> 00:27:46.720
feel when I shared this with you or what did you experience or what do you see? Cause in those

478
00:27:46.720 --> 00:27:52.160
infant stages of growing in that our confidence is just, it's needing that celebration, you know,

479
00:27:52.160 --> 00:28:00.480
like a toddler learning to walk. You're like, you know, you're not like, well, you, your knees

480
00:28:00.480 --> 00:28:05.040
buckled a little bit and you're taking a larger step there. You really should have grabbed the

481
00:28:05.040 --> 00:28:09.840
handle of the couch so you didn't fall, but you know, you did okay, kiddo. You know, like, that's

482
00:28:09.840 --> 00:28:15.040
not what you do with a toddler. You celebrate their, their beginning and their emergence. So

483
00:28:15.760 --> 00:28:20.880
love that. So good. How about any other of you? We want to hear your hearts. We want to hear.

484
00:28:20.880 --> 00:28:28.000
Yeah. Carol, go for it. Well, first off, thank you so much. What, what a blast to hear all the

485
00:28:28.080 --> 00:28:34.320
stories are absolutely amazing. It's a real privilege to hear people share their heart

486
00:28:34.320 --> 00:28:40.240
and the struggles and, and the giftings, you know, it's just amazing. So, um,

487
00:28:41.760 --> 00:28:47.520
I've been a business person for the last 35 years, owning businesses, running businesses,

488
00:28:47.520 --> 00:28:58.160
big multimillion businesses. And, um, I just retired, um, last year, end of last year,

489
00:28:59.120 --> 00:29:08.800
and all of a sudden raising royalty appeared on my iPhone and I thought, wow, what's this? So I've,

490
00:29:08.800 --> 00:29:17.440
I've just been on a journey, if you like, with the Lord. And, um, and then last night up on my

491
00:29:17.440 --> 00:29:31.120
phone, Benji sends this message, hi, artist Carol. And I'm, how does he know? Anyway, um, it's three

492
00:29:31.120 --> 00:29:34.720
o'clock in the morning over here, but I thought I've got to get onto this. I've got to see this

493
00:29:34.720 --> 00:29:41.920
because this is part of the journey, but yes, I do write and, um, and it's a gift I've had, um,

494
00:29:43.440 --> 00:29:49.440
Lord's given that to me right from the word go. And it's just a lovely thing to do. But what you

495
00:29:49.440 --> 00:29:56.800
said about, um, it being so precious that other people sometimes don't appreciate it,

496
00:29:56.800 --> 00:29:59.920
you kind of tend to hide it away. It's not.

497
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:07.680
something that you bring out it's kind of um I don't know it's a weird thing to

498
00:30:09.680 --> 00:30:16.560
have people critique it but they say oh that's nice that's and you're in that painting part of

499
00:30:16.560 --> 00:30:26.480
you's in there and um yeah so it tends to make you pull back a little bit so um anyway yeah so

500
00:30:26.480 --> 00:30:30.960
thank you so much everybody it's just a blast to hear what you have to say it's wonderful

501
00:30:32.640 --> 00:30:38.720
that's so good and so carol do you paint or do you or yes oh you paint awesome paint

502
00:30:38.720 --> 00:30:45.520
do you do acrylics watercolor what do you do uh my favorite medium is acrylics but i do watercolor

503
00:30:45.520 --> 00:30:52.720
and um oils and i do portraits i've i've entered competitions and that sort of thing through the

504
00:30:52.720 --> 00:31:00.160
years but very very quietly and under wraps sort of thing i don't tell anybody if i'm doing it i

505
00:31:00.160 --> 00:31:08.080
just quietly do it and yeah yeah you know i think it's about time i think it's about time i took it

506
00:31:10.720 --> 00:31:16.960
i mean um this gathering is actually all about you know just hearing each other celebrating

507
00:31:16.960 --> 00:31:22.080
each other you know you're not in the right place you know uh we can all relate to each other

508
00:31:22.720 --> 00:31:30.800
especially um uh you know as a creative people uh sometimes it's really hard for us to express

509
00:31:30.800 --> 00:31:36.480
and articulate in words that's why we paint or dance or do other thing you know just to express

510
00:31:36.480 --> 00:31:47.760
our soul you know and um so our heart in this um kingdom creative is to you know just to cheer you

511
00:31:48.160 --> 00:31:54.640
up and pray for you and listening to you and celebrating your craft you know and uh and thank

512
00:31:54.640 --> 00:32:00.560
you so much for sharing i mean even uh you know that's that's really really really nice i mean

513
00:32:00.560 --> 00:32:07.040
this is a a safe place you can be vulnerable you can ask questions you know if you want um

514
00:32:08.000 --> 00:32:16.880
ask uh any help and you know just to they're all really really open and uh yeah i think it's

515
00:32:16.880 --> 00:32:23.920
we are getting into that group this is our first zoom meeting and we are still uh trying to figure

516
00:32:23.920 --> 00:32:31.040
out our group uh groove actually you know trying to um you know how we do it you know because uh

517
00:32:31.040 --> 00:32:38.000
so many creative expressions and so many personalities that you know and so many uh

518
00:32:38.000 --> 00:32:44.880
evolvement as an artist you know some are super pro some are just starting up and you know so find

519
00:32:44.880 --> 00:32:55.920
a balance um a sweet spot is kind of hard you know so that's why i mean we yeah so i think it's

520
00:32:55.920 --> 00:33:04.400
actually um it's getting into uh that zone actually and thank you carol and please diana

521
00:33:05.200 --> 00:33:11.360
yeah that's so good that's so good xylan yeah carol i was just thinking too i remember being

522
00:33:11.920 --> 00:33:15.760
i was at bethel church for about three or four years and i was at one of their worship schools

523
00:33:16.320 --> 00:33:21.200
and they were talking about songwriting and crafting music and all that and they were

524
00:33:21.200 --> 00:33:29.040
talking about how um this this tension between your art is an expression of who you are and yet

525
00:33:29.040 --> 00:33:34.800
in different it's this thing when there's certain so this won't apply to everyone this i'm just

526
00:33:34.800 --> 00:33:39.920
going to say this just because it sparked it in me when you were sharing this of that when you paint

527
00:33:39.920 --> 00:33:44.800
something or when you create something that's a part of you that's in that and it's this beautiful

528
00:33:44.800 --> 00:33:50.000
tension because it is it's like and it's expression of who you are and then you've like given your

529
00:33:50.000 --> 00:33:53.840
heart and soul and you've been vulnerable and you've taken a risk and you've gone i've never

530
00:33:53.840 --> 00:33:58.160
painted this before i've never written like this before this poetry or this whatever and there's

531
00:33:58.160 --> 00:34:05.520
this interesting thing too when our creativity is partnered with serving people so sometimes

532
00:34:05.520 --> 00:34:10.800
there's art that is just for our creative expression and it is just to put on our walls

533
00:34:10.800 --> 00:34:16.400
or to have music that we would share in our home with people or we cook a beautiful meal or we

534
00:34:16.400 --> 00:34:23.120
sew some clothing or we you know whatever the creativity is i mean creativity is a thousand

535
00:34:23.120 --> 00:34:27.920
different ways but it's interesting creativity is partnered with actually serving people

536
00:34:28.560 --> 00:34:32.960
so whether it's graphic design and you're serving a company or a business or whether it's

537
00:34:32.960 --> 00:34:38.400
a song that is serving a church or a movement or whether it's writing that you're writing a

538
00:34:38.400 --> 00:34:44.320
book to serve people or you're writing a manual or you're doing something and they were talking

539
00:34:44.320 --> 00:34:48.639
about so they were talking about it regarding songwriting but i want to say it in creativity

540
00:34:48.639 --> 00:34:54.560
that is to serve anything that gets critique on it there's this dance on the inside that we have

541
00:34:54.560 --> 00:34:59.840
to allow ourselves to express ourselves into this form of creativity but then we have to

542
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:04.280
let it go because then it comes under scrutiny.

543
00:35:04.280 --> 00:35:07.760
So it might be like, yeah, that song, that hook is terrible.

544
00:35:07.800 --> 00:35:09.440
The chord progression is not good.

545
00:35:09.480 --> 00:35:12.420
I love the theme, but that's just not going to work.

546
00:35:12.420 --> 00:35:15.680
And then they throw out the song and you're like, I literally had an

547
00:35:15.680 --> 00:35:17.580
encounter with the Lord, had a dream.

548
00:35:17.600 --> 00:35:19.000
I wrote that whole thing.

549
00:35:19.240 --> 00:35:21.800
That is like everything is a part of it, you know?

550
00:35:21.840 --> 00:35:23.800
And they're just like, no, it's not going to work.

551
00:35:24.120 --> 00:35:28.360
But they said like how many times they go through that process in the writing.

552
00:35:28.680 --> 00:35:33.000
And so many people you get married to know that the Lord told me that

553
00:35:33.000 --> 00:35:35.120
was the chord for that chorus.

554
00:35:35.120 --> 00:35:37.840
And they're like, no, that's a terrible chord.

555
00:35:37.880 --> 00:35:39.760
That does not work at all for that.

556
00:35:39.760 --> 00:35:44.040
And so they were just talking and I love it because Bethel music is phenomenal.

557
00:35:44.040 --> 00:35:46.920
And they're a fruit of their music and church.

558
00:35:46.920 --> 00:35:50.380
And, and they were just being very real in their songwriting process.

559
00:35:50.380 --> 00:35:54.120
But you can, you can put that to anything, whether it's you're writing a

560
00:35:54.120 --> 00:35:57.520
book and it goes to the editor and they come back and it's like the fifth

561
00:35:57.520 --> 00:36:00.960
time they've given you another draft and like, sorry, that chapter is not

562
00:36:00.960 --> 00:36:06.720
working or, Hey, that graphic design that you did mate, this is the 15th time.

563
00:36:06.720 --> 00:36:08.040
Those colors aren't going to work.

564
00:36:08.040 --> 00:36:10.800
I don't like how this is there or whatever it is.

565
00:36:10.800 --> 00:36:14.920
And so there's this thing that we have to have tough skin, but a tender

566
00:36:14.920 --> 00:36:17.960
heart that we are able to receive.

567
00:36:18.400 --> 00:36:23.680
Constructive criticism or feedback or input on what we create, especially

568
00:36:23.680 --> 00:36:28.600
when it is there to serve people that we can't get to personally, that it

569
00:36:28.600 --> 00:36:32.600
crushes us, but to know that there will be times where we'll feel really

570
00:36:32.600 --> 00:36:38.840
offended, feel like, Oh my gosh, like really like that, I think it's awesome.

571
00:36:39.640 --> 00:36:40.680
And someone else doesn't.

572
00:36:40.680 --> 00:36:44.080
And so then you can take that and still have it as your expression.

573
00:36:44.480 --> 00:36:48.600
But maybe if it's not serving someone else or something else for the greater

574
00:36:48.600 --> 00:36:51.920
good, then you go, okay, Holy spirit, help me relook at this.

575
00:36:51.920 --> 00:36:53.160
Give me eyes to see.

576
00:36:53.480 --> 00:36:58.440
Give me wisdom and revelation, how I can craft this because it is not just about

577
00:36:58.440 --> 00:37:00.240
me, it is about serving the greater good.

578
00:37:00.240 --> 00:37:03.240
So that was just a little something that was on my mind.

579
00:37:03.240 --> 00:37:06.800
I thought, yeah, I want to add something onto it.

580
00:37:07.440 --> 00:37:12.320
I think I've heard somebody said that, you know, if someone rejecting you, I

581
00:37:12.320 --> 00:37:16.720
mean, rejecting your idea doesn't mean that they are rejecting you as a person.

582
00:37:16.920 --> 00:37:21.440
You know, I think as an artist, it's, it's very, very important.

583
00:37:21.440 --> 00:37:26.080
You know, as Diana mentioned that, you know, we, we tend to get really

584
00:37:26.080 --> 00:37:34.280
attached in a very deep personal level to our craft and, and some people come

585
00:37:34.280 --> 00:37:35.960
and say that, and it's not that great.

586
00:37:36.200 --> 00:37:43.800
I mean, literally, might crush you, but, you know, just to, that, to be in

587
00:37:43.800 --> 00:37:49.960
that place and grow as a mature person, it's their perspective.

588
00:37:50.440 --> 00:37:55.000
And, and, and if they don't like it, that that's okay.

589
00:37:55.000 --> 00:37:58.760
That they didn't say that they didn't like you, you know, as a person, it's

590
00:37:58.760 --> 00:38:02.720
just that craft and that's the piece of work that you did.

591
00:38:02.960 --> 00:38:06.920
I mean, that's, I mean, if you can develop and cultivate that kind of

592
00:38:06.920 --> 00:38:13.440
mindset and really help you, you know, as, as a person, otherwise, I mean, I

593
00:38:13.440 --> 00:38:17.880
mean, you feel too much and, you know, get depressed and, you know, I've been

594
00:38:17.880 --> 00:38:20.080
into that, I've been into that place.

595
00:38:20.120 --> 00:38:24.880
What I would do is like, I have a couple of selective people

596
00:38:24.880 --> 00:38:26.840
that I really look up to.

597
00:38:27.720 --> 00:38:31.200
Uh, I mean, there are a lot of people come and say different stuff.

598
00:38:31.320 --> 00:38:34.840
I'm more interested in those people, you know, what they are

599
00:38:34.960 --> 00:38:36.760
going to say about my, my thing.

600
00:38:36.760 --> 00:38:38.320
I mean, that, that will also really help.

601
00:38:39.400 --> 00:38:40.560
Sorry, I just wanted to add that.

602
00:38:41.040 --> 00:38:41.360
Yeah.

603
00:38:41.480 --> 00:38:41.760
Yes.

604
00:38:41.760 --> 00:38:42.360
Thank you.

605
00:38:43.560 --> 00:38:44.080
And Christine.

606
00:38:44.080 --> 00:38:46.120
Can I add more comment to that?

607
00:38:46.760 --> 00:38:47.280
Yeah, please.

608
00:38:47.280 --> 00:38:51.720
When I was, when I was younger, I was working as an engineer in a major company

609
00:38:52.440 --> 00:38:59.760
and, um, three or four of us guys were working in an office as assistants to

610
00:38:59.760 --> 00:39:05.560
the plant manager and we were, we were project specialists and he gave me the

611
00:39:05.560 --> 00:39:12.200
job of, um, drawing his ideas out as to where he would like renovate the

612
00:39:12.200 --> 00:39:16.680
building and change people's work areas and desks and things.

613
00:39:16.680 --> 00:39:21.040
And so for three or four days and then a week, and then maybe six or seven days,

614
00:39:21.040 --> 00:39:26.000
I would, I would draw all these layouts of where the offices would move and how

615
00:39:26.320 --> 00:39:27.720
the walls would move and everything.

616
00:39:27.920 --> 00:39:31.640
I would take them back to the plant manager and he would be like, this is cool.

617
00:39:31.640 --> 00:39:32.160
This is cool.

618
00:39:32.200 --> 00:39:32.720
This is neat.

619
00:39:32.720 --> 00:39:33.320
This is neat.

620
00:39:33.640 --> 00:39:35.360
I don't like any of this, go back and do this.

621
00:39:35.400 --> 00:39:40.200
And so after about seven days, I felt like, does this guy not like me?

622
00:39:40.680 --> 00:39:41.960
Am I being rejected?

623
00:39:42.440 --> 00:39:43.720
What am I doing wrong?

624
00:39:44.360 --> 00:39:48.960
And so I went finally on like eighth day and I asked him, it seems

625
00:39:48.960 --> 00:39:51.120
like everything I do, you don't like it.

626
00:39:51.160 --> 00:39:53.440
And he goes, no, I love it all.

627
00:39:53.800 --> 00:39:59.440
He says, I, I need ideas and I don't have time to think of many ideas.

628
00:39:59.440 --> 00:40:00.040
And you're giving.

629
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:06.080
me like six, seven options. He goes, I like everything you gave me. This is super valuable.

630
00:40:07.120 --> 00:40:11.520
And I was like, really? Because I thought you hated me. He's like, no, I love it.

631
00:40:13.600 --> 00:40:19.200
Sometimes when we think we're not making progress, we actually are, but we don't know it because

632
00:40:19.200 --> 00:40:24.800
maybe the person didn't actually share with us the value of what happened to them when they

633
00:40:24.800 --> 00:40:29.520
experienced working with us or being around us or whatever. I just wanted to open that up as

634
00:40:29.600 --> 00:40:37.840
a possibility. Most of the messages in my book are related to what we're talking about.

635
00:40:40.560 --> 00:40:47.840
Just from the first five words of the Bible, in the beginning, God created, and then he created

636
00:40:47.840 --> 00:40:54.880
man in his image. I think the main aspect of us being in God's image is that we're creative beings.

637
00:40:54.880 --> 00:41:02.800
He created the earth and the universe, and in that, he made man and said, you're in my image.

638
00:41:02.800 --> 00:41:09.680
This is the type of thing that you're to be doing. You see the stars and all of this,

639
00:41:09.680 --> 00:41:15.040
I made that, and you're to do stuff like that, whether maybe not making stars,

640
00:41:15.680 --> 00:41:21.760
but creating something as part of the essence of your being as a human is a creator.

641
00:41:22.640 --> 00:41:28.480
That's most of the messages, whether it's the sky or the ocean in the painting, the house,

642
00:41:28.480 --> 00:41:36.000
the stones, the house being founded on a rock. It's all based on the revelation is all of this

643
00:41:36.000 --> 00:41:41.200
represents an aspect of you being able to create something and your individual calling.

644
00:41:45.920 --> 00:41:50.800
Yeah, that's really good. This is so good, you guys. It's so good. Let's keep going with the

645
00:41:51.520 --> 00:41:58.000
introductions of just where people are from, what creativity they're a part of. Who's next?

646
00:42:06.080 --> 00:42:14.800
I guess I'll talk.

647
00:42:15.520 --> 00:42:15.920
Yay.

648
00:42:15.920 --> 00:42:18.240
Hi, everybody. Can you hear me okay?

649
00:42:18.240 --> 00:42:18.560
Yes.

650
00:42:19.360 --> 00:42:19.680
Thank you.

651
00:42:22.640 --> 00:42:25.120
I think I know who I am, but I'm not sure how I got here.

652
00:42:30.080 --> 00:42:38.240
Like Carol, this morning, this email came in. I don't know Benji. I don't know your group.

653
00:42:38.960 --> 00:42:45.840
And yet, the spirit so intrigued me. So here I am. Who are you? How did I get here?

654
00:42:49.520 --> 00:42:50.080
Amen.

655
00:42:51.120 --> 00:42:55.520
Great. Is Benji even in this group or?

656
00:42:55.520 --> 00:43:00.080
Okay. Yeah, I'd love to share about that. Okay. So, well, welcome. We're so glad that you're here.

657
00:43:00.080 --> 00:43:02.080
Your name's Bet or Betty?

658
00:43:02.880 --> 00:43:03.600
Betty.

659
00:43:03.600 --> 00:43:11.280
Betty. Beautiful. So Raising Royalty is a global movement that is here to serve Christians,

660
00:43:11.280 --> 00:43:16.720
sons and daughters to be awakened to who they are being created to be, to walk in sonship,

661
00:43:16.720 --> 00:43:22.640
to understand the dreams and desires that God has created in them and for them so that they

662
00:43:22.640 --> 00:43:29.840
can be fully empowered to walk in abundant life and to thrive and to basically be the gifts of

663
00:43:29.840 --> 00:43:34.960
who they are on the on the earth and to release the kingdom of heaven. And so we want to do that

664
00:43:34.960 --> 00:43:43.840
in all different areas. So Raising Royalty has a business side to it, but it is focused on equipping,

665
00:43:43.840 --> 00:43:51.040
empowering, teaching, raising up in every different sphere of life. So parenting, marriage,

666
00:43:51.040 --> 00:44:00.960
creativity, business, thriving, home life, farming, like happening around the world, worship,

667
00:44:00.960 --> 00:44:07.680
prayer, basically just going, how do we awaken? How do we partner with the spirit of God that he

668
00:44:07.680 --> 00:44:13.200
is awakening sons and daughters to understand who they truly are as sons and daughters of the

669
00:44:13.200 --> 00:44:21.600
father in her sonship, to walk in authority and to walk in communion, intimacy with God,

670
00:44:22.160 --> 00:44:29.680
and to be empowered to thrive so that they can be all that God's called them to be. So Kingdom

671
00:44:29.680 --> 00:44:36.800
Creatives is one aspect where we are just wanting to celebrate creatives, champion, serve, encourage,

672
00:44:37.600 --> 00:44:43.440
create a safe place for people to be seen and known on their journey. Because as we know, too,

673
00:44:43.440 --> 00:44:49.520
in this global world, we're all trying to find our tribe and we're trying to go, who are voices

674
00:44:49.520 --> 00:44:54.400
that we want to align to? What are communities that we go, yeah, that resonates within me,

675
00:44:54.400 --> 00:44:59.040
I want to be a part of that. And the beautiful thing of technology is that it opens up for us

676
00:44:59.040 --> 00:44:59.920
to find our tribe.

677
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:04.600
and voices and communities that we align to that might not be in our country.

678
00:45:04.600 --> 00:45:06.760
And we go, oh, I'm loving that.

679
00:45:06.760 --> 00:45:08.360
I want to kind of be a part of that.

680
00:45:08.360 --> 00:45:12.320
So so that's so lovely that you got an email.

681
00:45:12.320 --> 00:45:17.280
I'm wondering if maybe you saw an ad or maybe you bought in something

682
00:45:17.280 --> 00:45:21.360
or if there's something that you've clicked that gave your email

683
00:45:21.360 --> 00:45:25.120
or maybe you got an e-book from them from the science of dreams or something.

684
00:45:25.640 --> 00:45:29.360
Maybe that's how your email address was given.

685
00:45:29.360 --> 00:45:31.520
And so that email came through.

686
00:45:31.520 --> 00:45:33.480
But however it is, we're glad that you're here.

687
00:45:35.120 --> 00:45:37.760
Thank you. I am as well.

688
00:45:37.760 --> 00:45:41.440
You sound like a really amazing Holy Spirit driven group.

689
00:45:41.440 --> 00:45:47.120
And that's what I like to be sure that it's edifying our Lord.

690
00:45:47.480 --> 00:45:50.400
And I like crystal centric things.

691
00:45:50.760 --> 00:45:53.200
So I have to be a little cautious once in a while

692
00:45:53.200 --> 00:45:55.880
because I came from a different background.

693
00:45:55.880 --> 00:45:56.720
We all do. Right.

694
00:45:57.160 --> 00:46:02.240
I came from Jewish background and my parents were

695
00:46:04.200 --> 00:46:05.840
pretty darn secular.

696
00:46:05.840 --> 00:46:09.160
But my grandfather was Orthodox and from Israel.

697
00:46:09.160 --> 00:46:11.160
I can't. My maiden name was Singer.

698
00:46:11.160 --> 00:46:13.080
So I love singing, but I'm not a professional.

699
00:46:14.840 --> 00:46:17.840
But I had my own journey

700
00:46:17.840 --> 00:46:20.880
and it ended at 12 with the Lord for a while.

701
00:46:21.400 --> 00:46:25.440
And yet my agnostic father said, well, see, can't find it.

702
00:46:25.440 --> 00:46:27.560
And when you find your truth, I'll honor that.

703
00:46:28.240 --> 00:46:32.520
And probably about 14 years later, I was just on the beach

704
00:46:32.520 --> 00:46:34.840
and had a profound experience.

705
00:46:34.840 --> 00:46:38.960
And the Lord opened his cosmos and told me this is it.

706
00:46:39.080 --> 00:46:41.360
I created it. The stars, the planets.

707
00:46:41.360 --> 00:46:44.240
And I was floating there and just.

708
00:46:44.240 --> 00:46:47.840
So that was the beginning of my reopening to the Lord.

709
00:46:47.960 --> 00:46:49.840
And it took a while.

710
00:46:49.840 --> 00:46:54.760
You know, our paths take time and I got sucked into new age for a while.

711
00:46:54.760 --> 00:46:57.320
And that's why I'm cautious.

712
00:46:58.440 --> 00:47:00.240
The spiritual realm is real.

713
00:47:00.240 --> 00:47:04.720
And I just didn't realize how real and how serious

714
00:47:04.720 --> 00:47:07.000
and how potentially dangerous.

715
00:47:07.560 --> 00:47:12.520
And so that's why I ask who you are and what you hope to accomplish.

716
00:47:12.920 --> 00:47:14.080
So thank you. Absolutely.

717
00:47:14.080 --> 00:47:16.400
Yeah. Our whole mandate is to

718
00:47:18.360 --> 00:47:20.360
basically fulfill the Great Commission,

719
00:47:20.680 --> 00:47:24.240
preach the gospel, glorify the father,

720
00:47:24.520 --> 00:47:28.640
worship Jesus and be empowered by the Holy Spirit, by grace

721
00:47:28.640 --> 00:47:31.440
that would enable us to do everything that we can do

722
00:47:32.680 --> 00:47:35.360
in this world, that we would live to our full potential.

723
00:47:35.360 --> 00:47:39.520
We would live to the full expression of the Holy Spirit on the inside of us

724
00:47:40.400 --> 00:47:43.560
and that we would be worshipers in spirit and in truth.

725
00:47:43.560 --> 00:47:47.880
So absolutely understand the journey of just wanting to make sure

726
00:47:47.880 --> 00:47:51.600
you're in a safe place and understand who you're who you're listening to

727
00:47:51.600 --> 00:47:53.680
and who you're a part of. I think it's so wise.

728
00:47:54.280 --> 00:47:59.160
And yeah, and there's even after this chat, you can if you're on Facebook,

729
00:47:59.480 --> 00:48:02.680
you can go on and look at the Raising Royalty page,

730
00:48:02.680 --> 00:48:05.520
the Raising Royalty Masterclass page. I can put that in the chat.

731
00:48:07.040 --> 00:48:09.200
And you can just kind of understand a little bit more.

732
00:48:09.200 --> 00:48:10.360
And you can see Benji.

733
00:48:10.360 --> 00:48:13.960
He is a dear friend of me and Zilan. We work with him. We love him.

734
00:48:14.760 --> 00:48:16.560
He's an absolute powerhouse.

735
00:48:16.560 --> 00:48:20.840
And he is just there's few people that I know that are like Benji.

736
00:48:21.160 --> 00:48:23.760
He is just next level.

737
00:48:23.760 --> 00:48:27.240
And he is an incredible husband and father and leader.

738
00:48:27.240 --> 00:48:30.720
And he walks in sonship in such a profound way

739
00:48:31.080 --> 00:48:35.560
and is just his connection with the Holy Spirit is so beautiful

740
00:48:35.560 --> 00:48:39.400
and how he is creating and innovating

741
00:48:39.400 --> 00:48:44.280
and his heart to serve and his generosity is just unbelievable.

742
00:48:44.280 --> 00:48:48.560
And so, yeah, he's I can honor

743
00:48:49.120 --> 00:48:55.080
who he is with 100 percent integrity of of the kind of man and leader that he is.

744
00:48:55.080 --> 00:48:58.760
So, but yeah, you can check out more about Raising Royalty after and kind of get

745
00:48:58.760 --> 00:49:02.200
to know us a little bit more as a movement and an organization.

746
00:49:02.200 --> 00:49:04.240
But thank you so much for sharing your heart.

747
00:49:04.240 --> 00:49:05.960
We're glad you're here.

748
00:49:09.200 --> 00:49:11.160
Anybody else?

749
00:49:12.040 --> 00:49:13.880
Yeah, I'll go.

750
00:49:13.880 --> 00:49:16.640
Yeah. Can you get can you guys hear me?

751
00:49:17.000 --> 00:49:19.000
Yeah. Hi, Jimmy.

752
00:49:19.280 --> 00:49:23.440
Hi, I like Benny.

753
00:49:23.440 --> 00:49:25.280
I don't I'm not exactly sure.

754
00:49:25.280 --> 00:49:28.600
Like I, I know that I purchased something from.

755
00:49:35.440 --> 00:49:38.840
You know, from a book or something along the way,

756
00:49:38.840 --> 00:49:41.240
but I don't know how I got here either.

757
00:49:41.520 --> 00:49:44.720
So, Betty, you're in good company here because I'm not really sure.

758
00:49:46.280 --> 00:49:47.880
All lost together.

759
00:49:47.880 --> 00:49:50.560
I'm actually kind of thrilled to

760
00:49:51.560 --> 00:49:55.640
find like more of the creative things going on about

761
00:49:56.680 --> 00:49:59.960
for creatives, because my life is.

762
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:05.560
been all of that. You know, I, the Lord got a hold of me when I was nine at a VPS. And

763
00:50:05.560 --> 00:50:12.440
so I have known, well, let's see, I was introduced to him at nine, but I didn't really come to

764
00:50:12.440 --> 00:50:21.160
know him until I was 35. Life took an abrupt turn. And it's been a roller coaster ride

765
00:50:21.160 --> 00:50:30.600
ever since then. I was always too scared to put my work out for many years. So it hid

766
00:50:30.600 --> 00:50:38.720
under the guise of like floral design or retouching photography or something that was not like

767
00:50:38.720 --> 00:50:44.600
really art or really creative, although every job I ever had turned into that anyway, because

768
00:50:44.600 --> 00:50:52.200
it's a part of who I am. And it's the way that I think. So I would either like, annoy

769
00:50:52.200 --> 00:51:00.400
people a lot. Because, because I don't think the same, I know some of you guys must have

770
00:51:00.400 --> 00:51:06.560
that same quality, because you have a tendency to think outside of the box. And it's like,

771
00:51:06.560 --> 00:51:14.600
you know, they, they don't understand. So they either think you're crazy, or mostly

772
00:51:14.600 --> 00:51:21.040
it's you're crazy. And years later, when what you said actually happens, like the designs

773
00:51:21.040 --> 00:51:26.240
and stuff that you wrote out, the pictures that you did, actually happened, and it looks

774
00:51:26.240 --> 00:51:32.920
just like the picture, right? So at 35, the Lord really came and got me out of my pit.

775
00:51:32.920 --> 00:51:41.440
And I went through years and years of healing. Because I too, I was raised in a family that

776
00:51:41.440 --> 00:51:49.840
was pretty new agey. And I had a great aunt who had gone to which college and stuff like

777
00:51:49.840 --> 00:51:56.980
that. So that filtered down through my family. And I have a great respect and honor for those

778
00:51:56.980 --> 00:52:03.860
people who have been there and come back out. Yeah, because it's it's a difficult if

779
00:52:03.860 --> 00:52:13.060
it's a difficult one to shake all the way because it's so seductive. But I'll tell you

780
00:52:13.060 --> 00:52:19.860
what, I look back at my time in that area of my life. And I think you know, it was I

781
00:52:19.860 --> 00:52:26.660
there was such benefit out of out of having been in it only because I understood the spiritual

782
00:52:26.660 --> 00:52:31.060
side of life. And when the Lord came in and showed me the real thing, it was a lot easier

783
00:52:31.060 --> 00:52:36.900
to say, I'm all in because this is a road I can't find the end to. So Jesus, I'm all

784
00:52:36.900 --> 00:52:43.100
yours. So it let the switch in me that was like, Oh, I'm running down this road as far

785
00:52:43.100 --> 00:52:52.500
as I can, because every other road I tried, always came up with a dead end. Always. So

786
00:52:52.500 --> 00:52:58.660
I don't know what I want to what I really want to say about me other than it's it's

787
00:52:58.660 --> 00:53:04.620
been some years I was first married, then Mary actually married a divorced and then

788
00:53:04.620 --> 00:53:14.580
married a sculptor who taught me to sculpt and we did a lot of like, like, like monumental

789
00:53:14.580 --> 00:53:23.300
pieces. And it was it was an interesting time in my life being married to him. We fought

790
00:53:23.300 --> 00:53:30.780
like cats and dogs, but I knew that the Lord had done it. And a lot of it was about gaining

791
00:53:30.780 --> 00:53:35.940
the courage to stand up for yourself, me, you know, he used to say to me, I'll feel

792
00:53:35.940 --> 00:53:42.220
like I've done my job if you will ever stand up for yourself. And when I started to he

793
00:53:42.260 --> 00:53:50.220
didn't like it because I was standing up against him. Right? So you can't have that. It's gonna

794
00:53:50.220 --> 00:53:55.700
come out when it does it comes out all the way and it's okay. It was it was really it

795
00:53:55.700 --> 00:54:02.940
was beneficial. I lost him about five years ago. No, I guess it's six years now. Got remarried

796
00:54:02.940 --> 00:54:11.220
in March to the man. I didn't know God made men like that. It's like, really, really a

797
00:54:11.220 --> 00:54:16.020
surprise, but it's opened up. I don't know if you guys can see this. I'm standing in

798
00:54:16.020 --> 00:54:27.900
my studio right now. Opened up a whole new life for me, because my art and I, my husband

799
00:54:27.900 --> 00:54:36.060
had worked together in this space, but he was very prolific. And so his art was always

800
00:54:36.060 --> 00:54:40.260
here. And it was like, I couldn't get rid of him. Once he died, he was still alive in

801
00:54:40.300 --> 00:54:47.260
the studio. So it was very oppressive. So when Beryl came into my life, I there was

802
00:54:47.260 --> 00:54:53.020
at one point that he had done so many busts so much sculpture that I had kind of a cathartic

803
00:54:53.020 --> 00:54:58.660
moment and picked up a piece of not just his work, but my work too and threw it on the

804
00:54:58.660 --> 00:54:59.940
ground. And I remember looking

805
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:04.240
and said, Lord, if this is the wrong thing to do, you better stop me because that felt awful good.

806
00:55:04.960 --> 00:55:11.680
And I ended up tossing about 40 pieces of mostly just busts of people that I didn't know and had

807
00:55:11.680 --> 00:55:18.480
no place to put them. So in the midst of all of that, the Lord started giving me

808
00:55:21.200 --> 00:55:28.320
like pictures of things that he wanted painted. And I had gone through like a severe grief,

809
00:55:28.320 --> 00:55:34.880
not only over my husband's death, but because my church family, I'd been the children's pastor for

810
00:55:34.880 --> 00:55:44.080
10 years, kind of abandoned me. Everybody abandoned me when Art died. And I sat out here in the

811
00:55:44.080 --> 00:55:50.000
country in my studio for four and a half years alone. And during that period of time,

812
00:55:50.560 --> 00:56:00.160
I, you know, it was like, Lord, I, it was the worst. I can honestly say it's the worst thing

813
00:56:00.160 --> 00:56:06.320
I have ever been through in my life. And it culminated in a trip, he sent me to Bulgaria, of all places.

814
00:56:08.160 --> 00:56:15.200
And that after living in Egypt for three years, and surviving on the economy over there, I thought,

815
00:56:15.200 --> 00:56:21.440
well, that won't be a problem. They, you know, they speak real, they, well, no, they don't speak

816
00:56:21.440 --> 00:56:26.240
English, but they are Christians. So it'll be easier than dealing with the whole Muslim thing.

817
00:56:26.960 --> 00:56:34.720
But it wasn't, I, it really took me the end of my own power and my own self, like I couldn't,

818
00:56:36.080 --> 00:56:43.360
I shook for six months after coming back from that particular experience, because I felt so

819
00:56:43.360 --> 00:56:49.680
abandoned. And in that country, I couldn't understand a lick of a Cyrillic language, there

820
00:56:49.680 --> 00:56:58.240
was just no way at it, it kind of undid me. But in the process of all of that, I, I was like, Lord,

821
00:56:58.880 --> 00:57:04.800
what the heck? What was that all about? And he said, I needed to take you to the end of yourself.

822
00:57:05.760 --> 00:57:12.720
And I was like, okay, well, that's great. But why couldn't we have done it in like Las Vegas or New

823
00:57:12.720 --> 00:57:21.920
York or something like that? And he said, if you had been anyplace else on the face of the earth,

824
00:57:21.920 --> 00:57:30.160
you would have been able to communicate. And I was like, oh, it was business related. I was doing

825
00:57:30.880 --> 00:57:38.800
doing some commission work for some dancers, stuff like that. So there was actually a reason for it.

826
00:57:38.800 --> 00:57:46.720
But boy, it was a miserable trip. And in the midst of it, I got to see like what happens in a

827
00:57:46.720 --> 00:57:52.800
communist country under communist rule and the oppression that happened out of it, you could feel

828
00:57:52.800 --> 00:57:59.760
it in the air. So I kept thinking, Lord, why did I go there? And yet now I look at what's going on

829
00:57:59.760 --> 00:58:06.080
in our country. And I understand, because I, I under I have better understanding about what that

830
00:58:06.080 --> 00:58:16.000
all means spiritually. I know, I'm just rambling. And I don't, I don't really know what I want to

831
00:58:16.000 --> 00:58:23.680
say as far as the creative outlook is concerned, other than it's not an easy road to be a creative,

832
00:58:23.680 --> 00:58:29.760
because we do think differently than mainstream. And I don't know how many times I've been told that,

833
00:58:29.760 --> 00:58:34.800
like, I just didn't fit in the church, because I like refuse to play by the rules.

834
00:58:36.320 --> 00:58:38.160
Because they're not they're not my rules.

835
00:58:40.560 --> 00:58:45.840
You're laughing. But it's the truth. It's like, they're not my rules. Those are your rules that

836
00:58:45.840 --> 00:58:50.880
you came up with, you know, the Lord didn't tell me that. So why should I have to do that? Right?

837
00:58:51.680 --> 00:58:57.280
So I used to tell people that I have a very special annoying anointing because

838
00:59:04.800 --> 00:59:06.240
I can see you guys are late.

839
00:59:10.800 --> 00:59:16.320
Just because we are on mute. That's why I mean, you can't hear us. I mean, I'm laughing like crazy.

840
00:59:21.280 --> 00:59:28.880
The truth for me is like everything, it's paramount. So when I'm painting, or when I'm

841
00:59:29.520 --> 00:59:35.520
sculpting, or whatever it is I'm doing, it's like, if that's not there, I'm not doing it.

842
00:59:35.520 --> 00:59:43.440
Sorry, I can't lie for somebody else. And now the Lord's been giving me like messages through paintings.

843
00:59:44.400 --> 00:59:51.600
Oh, gosh. I've got one on the easel right now. You guys want to see it? This is kind of, yeah,

844
00:59:53.600 --> 00:59:58.000
it's weird. But this is this is the message.

845
01:00:00.000 --> 01:00:07.440
Let's see if I can get it in the frame. Oops, which way do you do this? Wow, okay, okay. So,

846
01:00:09.120 --> 01:00:16.800
when this first I thought back up or there, okay, there it is. If I first got this image

847
01:00:17.840 --> 01:00:24.080
in my head in a vision, and I was like, Lord, what am I looking at? Because what I saw was

848
01:00:24.080 --> 01:00:30.560
his hand on a hammer and the spike going down through the rotunda of the Capitol Building.

849
01:00:30.560 --> 01:00:34.960
And I was like, okay, well, that sort of fits with what's going on in the world. And, you know,

850
01:00:39.200 --> 01:00:46.880
and he says to me, he says that spike is the spirit of truth. And those were her his arms,

851
01:00:46.880 --> 01:00:55.840
you know, holding on to it and pounding it. And I thought, okay, what am I doing with that?

852
01:00:55.840 --> 01:01:03.280
You know, what's that for? And then I saw the interior of the Capitol. And he said to me,

853
01:01:04.240 --> 01:01:08.560
I want you to pull it in, like pull it into existence through the painting. And there's

854
01:01:08.560 --> 01:01:18.240
something about prayers becoming solid, as you create the form of it in the earth, like if you're

855
01:01:18.240 --> 01:01:24.400
does that make sense to you guys? Yeah. Like when it's out there, it's vague. But when you can put

856
01:01:24.400 --> 01:01:32.640
it down either on paper, or in a painting or a sculpture, it becomes solid and it comes into

857
01:01:32.640 --> 01:01:40.640
this realm. So it's kind of like pulling it in. But I did some research on it about the hammer and

858
01:01:40.640 --> 01:01:45.520
the spike and all of that stuff. And the only place that I that I found in the Bible where both

859
01:01:45.520 --> 01:01:54.880
of those things are mentioned, was when JL actually pounded the Cicero's head to the ground,

860
01:01:55.440 --> 01:01:58.960
staked his head to the ground, as Cicero was trying to take over.

861
01:01:59.360 --> 01:02:04.080
So I was like, okay, so that's an interesting concept. We're gonna nail the enemy heads to the

862
01:02:04.080 --> 01:02:09.680
ground. That's great. But then I started seeing this tree growing up through the middle of it.

863
01:02:09.680 --> 01:02:14.320
And I thought, Lord, what is that? And he said, that's the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

864
01:02:15.200 --> 01:02:23.120
So he was talking to me about the judgment within our own hearts that each one is not just

865
01:02:23.280 --> 01:02:28.000
It's not just about our country, but about who we are as human beings.

866
01:02:30.400 --> 01:02:36.720
Walking the face of the earth, that the judgment seat in our own hearts has to come in alignment

867
01:02:36.720 --> 01:02:42.560
with him and not the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, so that we stay out of the devil's

868
01:02:42.560 --> 01:02:48.480
playground, and the politics and everything like you don't have to agree with everything

869
01:02:48.480 --> 01:02:55.280
that's going on, because God knows, we don't. But it's not about the people. It's about the

870
01:02:55.280 --> 01:03:01.120
spirits behind that that's going on. So yeah, that's been my journey with

871
01:03:02.400 --> 01:03:08.240
Jenny. Thank you so much. Thanks so much for sharing. It's so good to hear just your story.

872
01:03:08.240 --> 01:03:13.920
And yeah, all that's been going on. We'd love to hear more. I'm just aware that there's some people

873
01:03:13.920 --> 01:03:19.040
that are going to have to go and we really just want to know. No, no, that's okay. We love you

874
01:03:19.040 --> 01:03:25.520
dearly. And we're so glad to hear your story. It's so amazing. So amazing to hear your story,

875
01:03:25.520 --> 01:03:30.720
Jenny. Thank you so much for sharing. Thank you. Thank you. It's amazing to hear what's happened

876
01:03:30.720 --> 01:03:37.360
in your life. The gold, the gems, the journey, it is so beautiful and amazing to see your artwork.

877
01:03:37.920 --> 01:03:43.440
Amazing to hear of like where the Lord is taking you, what he's downloaded to you, how he's healed

878
01:03:43.440 --> 01:03:49.680
you, what he's done in and through you. You are such a sign and a wonder. You are so beautiful.

879
01:03:49.680 --> 01:03:54.400
We're so glad that you're here. So thank you for sharing. Like thank you for just sharing your

880
01:03:54.400 --> 01:04:01.040
wisdom, your revelation, your creativity. Love it. Like love it. Love it. I just want to just make

881
01:04:01.040 --> 01:04:04.000
the room because there's just some people in the chat saying they have to go and we just want to

882
01:04:04.000 --> 01:04:08.800
give space for them to be able to. I totally get it. Totally get it. Sorry for taking so long.

883
01:04:08.800 --> 01:04:14.880
That's OK. No, we love hearing your story. So thank you. So, Cleo, can you just come and say

884
01:04:14.880 --> 01:04:24.240
hi to us, babe? Yes. Hi. I actually really don't know what I have to say to you, but I'll just say hi.

885
01:04:29.360 --> 01:04:33.120
Let us know kind of like creatively what you love,

886
01:04:33.120 --> 01:04:35.680
a little bit of your story for everyone that doesn't know who you are.

887
01:04:39.760 --> 01:04:46.960
I love, well, I love a lot of different things. I just haven't done much, much yet.

888
01:04:48.880 --> 01:04:57.520
Like I love dancing. I love cooking. I love painting, singing and writing. The most like

889
01:04:58.960 --> 01:04:59.760
common, I guess.

890
01:05:00.000 --> 01:05:10.120
creative expression that happens is poetry for me at the moment, so yeah but I'm just

891
01:05:10.120 --> 01:05:19.680
really wanting to like just practice basically effortless living of just like I'm just being

892
01:05:19.680 --> 01:05:23.680
do you know I mean like my purpose in life is to be an artist or anything my purpose

893
01:05:23.680 --> 01:05:29.680
in life is just to hang out with Jesus and just like his friend and like if he gives

894
01:05:29.680 --> 01:05:34.000
me poems then I'll write poems if he gives me songs then I'll make songs I'm just kind

895
01:05:34.000 --> 01:05:39.800
of like that's why I kind of felt like I don't know how much I have to say today because

896
01:05:39.800 --> 01:05:43.440
I just don't know I don't even know how to put anything into words right now but I'm

897
01:05:43.440 --> 01:05:54.480
just like um that's beautiful no it's it's amazing Cleo was part of our talent quest

898
01:05:54.480 --> 01:05:59.400
we did a talent quest of raising royalty and it was incredible just to hear her story and

899
01:05:59.400 --> 01:06:04.920
her spoken word and her poetry and just the journey that the Lord's taken her on the awakening

900
01:06:04.920 --> 01:06:10.960
the healing the transformation the beauty that she is and um you know I think all of

901
01:06:10.960 --> 01:06:18.760
us as creatives um can identify with there is so much that goes on in our lives that

902
01:06:18.760 --> 01:06:26.440
we are constantly just trying to navigate and um and and so when we feel liberated and

903
01:06:26.440 --> 01:06:32.120
when we feel seen and known um it is the most empowering thing ever and it is the

904
01:06:32.120 --> 01:06:39.200
most um yeah I think that's that's the beauty of what I love what Cleo's saying is that

905
01:06:39.200 --> 01:06:43.760
I'm not just living to produce or to be an artist I'm actually living to be loved I'm

906
01:06:43.760 --> 01:06:49.800
actually living to be embraced I'm actually living to be connected to the father and to

907
01:06:49.800 --> 01:06:55.240
to love Jesus and whatever comes from that that's going to be beautiful and that's going

908
01:06:55.240 --> 01:06:59.920
to be life-giving and that's going to be transformative and that's going to be abundant

909
01:06:59.920 --> 01:07:04.360
life you know because we're just striving to produce or achieve it gets all wrapped

910
01:07:04.360 --> 01:07:08.480
up with stuff but when we're actually allowing the healing and the transformation of our

911
01:07:08.480 --> 01:07:15.080
own identity and our sonship as sons and daughters that is the most precious thing to go on the

912
01:07:15.080 --> 01:07:21.280
journey because from there comes the most life-giving thing so thank you for sharing

913
01:07:21.280 --> 01:07:27.160
Cleo hi I want to hear from you as well Heidi was also part of our incredible talent quest

914
01:07:27.160 --> 01:07:34.120
she's a harpist she's this incredible musician so Heidi would you say hi to everyone hi everyone

915
01:07:34.120 --> 01:07:37.960
I was getting ready to introduce Cleo for herself and tell everyone how adorable she

916
01:07:37.960 --> 01:07:42.200
is if she didn't come up with that because I loved getting to know her we've been messaging

917
01:07:42.200 --> 01:07:48.320
on here hi um I missed you guys so much it's been three months and since we were all in

918
01:07:48.320 --> 01:07:52.760
the middle of doing that and I forgot how much I love hearing all the accents from all

919
01:07:52.760 --> 01:07:58.480
over the world and um the heart here Dana you really said some beautiful things that

920
01:07:58.480 --> 01:08:04.200
I really needed to hear um today and so I'm so grateful for how the Lord pours out on

921
01:08:04.200 --> 01:08:11.960
his people and for Betty and Jenny you're like what is this place um this is a family

922
01:08:12.120 --> 01:08:19.920
you found a family of people who are doing of people who love well love God well and

923
01:08:19.920 --> 01:08:24.439
love each other well so it's a striking place it's difficult to find especially if you've

924
01:08:24.439 --> 01:08:32.000
come from a hard family life or past um but it's the sweetest thing so yeah I play the

925
01:08:32.000 --> 01:08:36.880
harp and I'm so grateful for what the Lord taught me through the summer I can identify

926
01:08:36.880 --> 01:08:42.600
with Scott because after that beautiful wonderful experience with you guys boy it was just a

927
01:08:42.600 --> 01:08:49.640
smack down and the enemy just came hard against my heart to just shut shut it down shut it

928
01:08:49.640 --> 01:08:55.279
down and I kind of kept thinking what's the big deal with my heart I can still play and

929
01:08:55.279 --> 01:09:00.520
so it's fine I'll just let my heart lie dormant and so Dana when you said you know God wants

930
01:09:00.520 --> 01:09:06.520
all of you fully expressed I realized he won't let us function he won't let us be

931
01:09:06.520 --> 01:09:16.080
his tool without also being his heart and so um yeah I'm excited to see what he does

932
01:09:16.080 --> 01:09:22.520
as you all know wherever you're living it's really a fight right now um to kind of like

933
01:09:22.520 --> 01:09:28.160
it's kind of chaos out there but I'm so grateful for the way that the Lord is drawing our hearts

934
01:09:28.160 --> 01:09:33.479
and drawing us closer to him and keeping us really plugged into him and and connected

935
01:09:33.479 --> 01:09:38.319
with each other I think that's a huge part of the gift so I don't know if any of that

936
01:09:38.319 --> 01:09:44.399
made any sense but yeah I'm so thankful for today yeah so beautiful thank you Heidi we're

937
01:09:44.399 --> 01:09:50.319
so glad you're here and your music and your heart is just radiant and shiny and so beautiful

938
01:09:50.319 --> 01:09:55.520
and so I just pray that wherever the enemy is trying to shut that down or bring like

939
01:09:55.520 --> 01:10:00.000
this that there would just be this like wide opening just like light liberation

940
01:10:00.000 --> 01:10:07.800
celebration that your heart would just feel like, oh, empowered, just free, you know,

941
01:10:07.800 --> 01:10:12.920
like, yeah, almost like Ariel in the Little Mermaid who gets her voice back, you know,

942
01:10:12.920 --> 01:10:17.240
like, where the end, you know, where Ursula is trying to get her voice in that seashell.

943
01:10:17.240 --> 01:10:21.880
Yeah, no, it's like, you've got your voice back and you're liberated and you get to fully

944
01:10:21.880 --> 01:10:28.400
be you and in the full expression of your creativity is so good. Thank you for sharing.

945
01:10:28.400 --> 01:10:33.120
We're going to be wrapping up just in the next 10 to 15 minutes. So I know there's a

946
01:10:33.120 --> 01:10:37.680
few of you, Christine, we'd love to say hi from you. And if there's any others of you

947
01:10:37.680 --> 01:10:41.400
that just want to say hi, and just let us know where you're tuning in from, and what

948
01:10:41.400 --> 01:10:45.920
kind of expression of creativity you have just within about a minute, that would be

949
01:10:45.920 --> 01:11:07.840
great just to give time for everyone. We'd love to love to say hi and hear from you.

950
01:11:07.840 --> 01:11:13.920
Anybody want to just say hi, where you're from? There's no I'm Laurel from Arizona.

951
01:11:14.480 --> 01:11:25.840
Hi, Laurel. And ever since I was six, I guess I've been creative. I've done every arts and

952
01:11:25.840 --> 01:11:37.200
crafts thing you can think of. So creativity has always been part of what I do. Yeah. And

953
01:11:37.920 --> 01:11:46.400
I in different expressions and stuff. But for many years, I do card making. Oh, wow. But in

954
01:11:46.400 --> 01:11:54.640
the last year or so, I have a lot of percolating in me to express in different ways. Like writing

955
01:11:54.640 --> 01:12:00.640
or I bought a keyboard because I want to play music. I have visions that I want to be able

956
01:12:00.640 --> 01:12:10.560
to share. So I've been trying to electronic art. And I'm a technical writer in my traditional job,

957
01:12:10.560 --> 01:12:21.920
but I want to write in a creatively what the Lord has been showing me and stuff. And Jenny,

958
01:12:22.000 --> 01:12:31.840
your sharing absolutely blessed me. And I love because when I saw your picture, it's like, oh,

959
01:12:31.840 --> 01:12:40.400
yeah, I can totally relate to having seen that type of vision and then being able to express it.

960
01:12:40.400 --> 01:12:50.720
And I loved how you shared about when we have when when Holy Spirit, he'll just percolate

961
01:12:51.840 --> 01:12:57.200
something inside me and I figure out how to express it either in a card or some other way.

962
01:12:57.760 --> 01:13:03.680
But I loved how you shared them that when we do that, that brings it into it's like manifesting

963
01:13:04.000 --> 01:13:07.760
Yeah. Oh, cool. Thank you for sharing.

964
01:13:10.480 --> 01:13:14.000
Love that Laurel. Thank you. Laurel, where are you in Arizona?

965
01:13:15.520 --> 01:13:20.720
Chandler. Okay, I'm in Litchfield Park. So I'm on the other side of Phoenix from you.

966
01:13:21.520 --> 01:13:28.160
Oh, well, we're in the same valley. That's super cool. We're in the same valley.

967
01:13:28.720 --> 01:13:32.160
Yeah, that's only about that's only an hour's road trip.

968
01:13:32.160 --> 01:13:37.520
I have a cousin. I have I have family who lives over on that side. Awesome.

969
01:13:42.960 --> 01:13:46.400
Anybody else want to say hi and just let us know where you're from and just what

970
01:13:47.840 --> 01:13:49.360
creativity you love to express.

971
01:13:49.920 --> 01:13:53.840
Hey, Dana, can you hear me? Yeah, where? Hello? Who's talking?

972
01:13:55.840 --> 01:14:01.920
Christine. Christine. Oh, yes. Yes, there you are. Sorry. I was looking at all the faces. I'm like,

973
01:14:01.920 --> 01:14:02.880
where are you? Yeah.

974
01:14:04.880 --> 01:14:08.400
I'm from Quebec, Cazabaza, Quebec, in Canada.

975
01:14:08.400 --> 01:14:08.880
Beautiful.

976
01:14:08.880 --> 01:14:15.280
And we love your worship. We really enjoyed listening to you and what you guys are doing.

977
01:14:15.360 --> 01:14:24.160
I used to be a fashion designer 20 years ago. But then I got sick. And I ended up doing

978
01:14:24.160 --> 01:14:33.120
massage therapy for the last 25 years. And being creative through whatever I could. I

979
01:14:33.120 --> 01:14:39.600
really love it. And my wish has been to be creative for the Lord. I don't really know

980
01:14:39.920 --> 01:14:45.920
what that looks like. But I think he's working on me.

981
01:14:45.920 --> 01:14:55.920
I love that fashion design. That's so incredible. Oh, textures and colors and fabrics and beautiful

982
01:14:55.920 --> 01:14:57.920
textures. I love it.

983
01:14:57.920 --> 01:14:59.920
Thank you so much.

984
01:15:00.000 --> 01:15:02.260
things that people wear and just adorning them.

985
01:15:02.260 --> 01:15:03.300
That is so beautiful.

986
01:15:03.300 --> 01:15:05.400
And massage therapy, that's so creative too,

987
01:15:05.400 --> 01:15:07.480
because you're releasing creativity

988
01:15:07.480 --> 01:15:09.160
and healing into people's bodies.

989
01:15:09.160 --> 01:15:11.780
And wow, love it.

990
01:15:11.780 --> 01:15:14.880
And you're in Quebec, amazing.

991
01:15:14.880 --> 01:15:15.840
Love Quebec.

992
01:15:16.760 --> 01:15:20.820
I was there once as a teenager years ago, so beautiful.

993
01:15:20.820 --> 01:15:22.880
I wish I could speak French, but I can't.

994
01:15:24.340 --> 01:15:26.640
About an hour from Ottawa.

995
01:15:26.640 --> 01:15:28.840
Okay, amazing.

996
01:15:30.000 --> 01:15:31.200
Awesome.

997
01:15:31.200 --> 01:15:32.640
Does anybody else want to say hello,

998
01:15:32.640 --> 01:15:34.460
just before we wrap up?

999
01:15:45.360 --> 01:15:47.440
Annette, it's good to see your beautiful face.

1000
01:15:47.440 --> 01:15:49.240
Just want to say hi.

1001
01:15:49.240 --> 01:15:50.520
No worries if you don't want to say hi,

1002
01:15:50.520 --> 01:15:51.400
but if you want to say hi,

1003
01:15:51.400 --> 01:15:53.200
we'd love to know where you're from.

1004
01:15:53.200 --> 01:15:58.200
Hi, I'm from Quebec, and I got tuned in last night

1005
01:16:06.760 --> 01:16:09.760
to actually listen to your massage.

1006
01:16:12.280 --> 01:16:14.360
I'm so sorry, there's like a thumping.

1007
01:16:14.360 --> 01:16:15.720
Can other people hear that?

1008
01:16:17.600 --> 01:16:18.960
Is-

1009
01:16:18.960 --> 01:16:20.600
Yes, I hear it.

1010
01:16:20.600 --> 01:16:21.440
Is someone tapping?

1011
01:16:21.680 --> 01:16:25.120
Our voice is cutting in and out also.

1012
01:16:25.120 --> 01:16:25.960
Yeah.

1013
01:16:27.480 --> 01:16:30.760
I won't say much, but working with children all along,

1014
01:16:30.760 --> 01:16:35.280
so I guess there's quite a bit of creativity in that.

1015
01:16:35.280 --> 01:16:40.080
So yes, I'm excited to meet all of you.

1016
01:16:40.080 --> 01:16:42.320
Yeah, oh, that's beautiful.

1017
01:16:42.320 --> 01:16:43.400
Thank you.

1018
01:16:45.560 --> 01:16:46.800
So love it.

1019
01:16:46.800 --> 01:16:48.880
Oh, and Ginny, we love you.

1020
01:16:48.880 --> 01:16:50.380
We absolutely love you,

1021
01:16:50.380 --> 01:16:52.340
and we love that you expressed your heart.

1022
01:16:52.340 --> 01:16:54.940
There is no shame, and there is no embarrassment,

1023
01:16:54.940 --> 01:16:56.500
no, any of that.

1024
01:16:56.500 --> 01:16:58.700
We love you, and we love that you are sharing

1025
01:16:58.700 --> 01:17:02.020
your heart with us, and we love, this is a safe place.

1026
01:17:02.020 --> 01:17:03.980
There was no shame at all in that.

1027
01:17:03.980 --> 01:17:06.500
I was just wanting to create some spaces for other people

1028
01:17:06.500 --> 01:17:08.420
just before we wrapped up the call,

1029
01:17:08.420 --> 01:17:11.300
but please, I was going to actually private message you

1030
01:17:11.300 --> 01:17:12.740
after and say, I don't want,

1031
01:17:12.740 --> 01:17:14.780
I could almost feel like there was this thing,

1032
01:17:14.780 --> 01:17:16.540
and I was like, no, no, don't feel that way.

1033
01:17:16.540 --> 01:17:17.380
We love you.

1034
01:17:17.380 --> 01:17:19.380
We love hearing your voice.

1035
01:17:19.380 --> 01:17:22.300
We love hearing your story and your journey.

1036
01:17:22.300 --> 01:17:24.700
And I'm so glad you showed your picture of the Capitol,

1037
01:17:24.700 --> 01:17:27.180
because all of us here in the U.S. are like, yes,

1038
01:17:27.180 --> 01:17:29.620
come on, Lord, drive that spike of truth.

1039
01:17:29.620 --> 01:17:32.180
Like, we're all, that's what we're praying for.

1040
01:17:32.180 --> 01:17:35.260
So amen, sister, and we're glad you shared.

1041
01:17:35.260 --> 01:17:36.740
I agree.

1042
01:17:36.740 --> 01:17:37.580
Yeah.

1043
01:17:37.580 --> 01:17:39.380
Ginny, can you show it again, please?

1044
01:17:42.700 --> 01:17:45.500
Can you show the picture again, please?

1045
01:17:45.500 --> 01:17:46.340
Sure.

1046
01:17:49.380 --> 01:17:50.220
Oh, wow.

1047
01:17:53.460 --> 01:17:55.300
So incredible.

1048
01:17:55.300 --> 01:17:56.900
That's profound.

1049
01:17:56.900 --> 01:17:57.740
Amazing.

1050
01:17:58.740 --> 01:18:01.300
It's got a lot more layers to go yet.

1051
01:18:01.300 --> 01:18:04.460
I know that it's not anywhere near done yet,

1052
01:18:04.460 --> 01:18:06.700
but thanks, you guys.

1053
01:18:07.940 --> 01:18:09.060
It's awesome.

1054
01:18:09.060 --> 01:18:11.900
I hit this a lot about sit down and shut up,

1055
01:18:13.140 --> 01:18:16.260
but I also realized that it's a weakness inside of me.

1056
01:18:16.260 --> 01:18:17.300
So it doesn't,

1057
01:18:20.380 --> 01:18:22.740
hmm, no, no, no.

1058
01:18:22.740 --> 01:18:27.740
I think I really enjoy the way you were sharing.

1059
01:18:29.500 --> 01:18:31.580
It really actually moved me.

1060
01:18:31.580 --> 01:18:36.580
And I just want to say that I can easily relate to you.

1061
01:18:37.140 --> 01:18:41.220
You know, when you said that you never felt

1062
01:18:41.220 --> 01:18:44.620
that you fit into the church scenario,

1063
01:18:44.620 --> 01:18:46.540
I mean, I can easily relate that to you.

1064
01:18:46.540 --> 01:18:48.060
I think most of the people,

1065
01:18:48.060 --> 01:18:49.380
the thing is not,

1066
01:18:49.380 --> 01:18:52.020
because of the church is still actually growing

1067
01:18:52.020 --> 01:18:55.260
and evolving to understand and accommodate

1068
01:18:55.260 --> 01:18:57.820
and minister to creative people, you know?

1069
01:18:57.820 --> 01:19:00.980
The thing is, we are wired in a different way altogether.

1070
01:19:00.980 --> 01:19:01.820
Yeah.

1071
01:19:01.820 --> 01:19:06.420
And I mean, the church actually is still learning

1072
01:19:06.420 --> 01:19:09.380
to learn our language, you know?

1073
01:19:09.380 --> 01:19:12.620
To try to communicate to us, to our soul, the way we,

1074
01:19:12.620 --> 01:19:15.340
the thing is, I mean, we naturally try to perceive things

1075
01:19:15.340 --> 01:19:17.820
in a all different way, you know?

1076
01:19:18.580 --> 01:19:19.420
Right.

1077
01:19:19.420 --> 01:19:23.140
And so there'll be a lot of questions comes to our mind.

1078
01:19:23.140 --> 01:19:26.300
And most of the time we are really opinionated.

1079
01:19:26.300 --> 01:19:28.020
We ask questions and most of the time,

1080
01:19:28.020 --> 01:19:30.540
church don't know how to answer that kind of scene,

1081
01:19:30.540 --> 01:19:32.540
you know, personally for me.

1082
01:19:32.540 --> 01:19:37.540
So I really, really like, you know, relate with you.

1083
01:19:38.300 --> 01:19:40.100
And thank you so much for sharing.

1084
01:19:40.100 --> 01:19:41.820
There's no worry that, I mean,

1085
01:19:41.820 --> 01:19:43.860
I mean, this is why we are doing this, you know?

1086
01:19:43.900 --> 01:19:48.740
We just wanted to hear from people like you, you know?

1087
01:19:48.740 --> 01:19:50.700
And thank you so much for sharing.

1088
01:19:50.700 --> 01:19:52.740
So don't worry about it.

1089
01:19:52.740 --> 01:19:54.620
I really love you.

1090
01:19:54.620 --> 01:19:57.300
I feel like that mom who's been stuck at home

1091
01:19:57.300 --> 01:19:59.860
with a toddler for four years, you know?

1092
01:20:00.000 --> 01:20:09.280
finally gets to talk. You're in the right place. My life home with four kids. So I get you Jenny.

1093
01:20:11.840 --> 01:20:17.440
Give me an adult to talk to somebody who might understand. Yeah. Anybody. Yeah.

1094
01:20:18.320 --> 01:20:25.600
One quick thing. If I may. Yeah. I've worked with dreams a lot over the years. And this what we're

1095
01:20:25.600 --> 01:20:29.760
talking about and what we're unveiling here reminds me of one particular dream that was

1096
01:20:29.760 --> 01:20:36.720
very powerful. And it was just, I'll just give a snippet. It was, you know, dreams have almost

1097
01:20:36.720 --> 01:20:43.520
like cartoon characters in them. And the dream had the wicked, the chrome with the apple, you know,

1098
01:20:43.520 --> 01:20:49.040
kind of hunched over and it was chasing me. And in the dream was chasing, but I was working so

1099
01:20:49.040 --> 01:20:54.880
much for dreams. I realized this is a shadow and I need to look at it because shadows are 90% gold,

1100
01:20:54.880 --> 01:21:00.880
even though they're scary. So I turned and I touched the cloak. It was a brown cloak and off

1101
01:21:00.880 --> 01:21:10.880
it came and underneath was this golden angel. I mean, huge. And it represented myself because

1102
01:21:10.880 --> 01:21:17.360
that's what dreams are. So I'm just feeling like to express that to us all, because we are kind of,

1103
01:21:17.360 --> 01:21:23.920
you know, sometimes running away from the best part of ourselves and until something unveils us

1104
01:21:24.000 --> 01:21:30.480
and the Holy spirit comes within, that's when the power comes through. So I just had to share that.

1105
01:21:30.480 --> 01:21:35.840
Yeah, that's beautiful. I love that quote too from Carl Young, that 90% of the shadow is pure gold.

1106
01:21:36.560 --> 01:21:41.200
It's so good. I love the whole realm of psychology and understanding that and

1107
01:21:41.200 --> 01:21:45.760
leaning into the shadow and the things that we feel shamed about or darkness or different things

1108
01:21:45.760 --> 01:21:50.880
that we struggle in our humanity, because all of us as humans have things that we struggle

1109
01:21:50.880 --> 01:21:56.960
with in our humanity or our past or decisions or just our makeup or how we're wired. But when

1110
01:21:56.960 --> 01:22:03.040
we embrace that shadow and we give light to it, yeah, 90% of it is gold. Sure, there's some

1111
01:22:03.040 --> 01:22:08.800
things that might be unhealthy or dysfunctional, but for the most part, what is underneath

1112
01:22:08.800 --> 01:22:15.040
that trying to be expressed is pure gold. And so as creatives, it's so powerful for us to get

1113
01:22:15.120 --> 01:22:23.760
in tune with that because we're such a feely, intuitive, gut, creative, expressive being.

1114
01:22:25.040 --> 01:22:30.160
So that was really good, buddy. Thank you so much for sharing. Really powerful, really, really

1115
01:22:30.160 --> 01:22:36.720
powerful. Well, we're going to wrap up in just a few minutes. Is there anybody else that wants

1116
01:22:36.720 --> 01:22:47.760
to say hello just before we kind of finish? There's no pressure to. We just want to say

1117
01:22:47.760 --> 01:22:53.040
hello, Josh, Susan, and Bindu. We're so glad that you're here. I'm glad that you're part of

1118
01:22:53.040 --> 01:23:05.680
our community. Yeah, hi everyone. Bindu here. I'm from Bangalore, India. I joined very late,

1119
01:23:05.680 --> 01:23:12.960
so I missed most of it. But, yeah, nice to see you all. That's so great. We're so glad you're

1120
01:23:12.960 --> 01:23:18.800
here. Yeah, we're just introducing our name, where we're from, and kind of the different

1121
01:23:18.800 --> 01:23:24.480
aspect of creativity that we express or that we're involved in. Is there something creatively

1122
01:23:24.480 --> 01:23:33.840
that you love to do? So nothing like I would say, but I do keep on getting ideas to do something

1123
01:23:33.840 --> 01:23:40.480
business-wise, not like a painting or anything. Like I should start this, I should start that,

1124
01:23:40.480 --> 01:23:46.560
and all that business ideas keep on coming. Yeah, I love it. May the ideas keep flowing,

1125
01:23:46.560 --> 01:23:51.520
and may the resources and the grace and the wisdom to know how to walk it out come as well.

1126
01:23:52.480 --> 01:24:00.160
Yes, so I'm on that journey. Yes, love it. Yeah, good. Well, we will be...

1127
01:24:03.440 --> 01:24:09.520
I was saying this meeting has definitely been blessed for me. My question is, how frequently

1128
01:24:09.520 --> 01:24:15.520
are we going to do this? Yeah, I say the more the better. Yeah, for sure. I was just going to

1129
01:24:15.520 --> 01:24:25.360
let you guys know. So we will be reposting this Zoom to our Facebook group, and we would

1130
01:24:25.360 --> 01:24:32.320
really love to do this about once a month. And so we would love if you can be a part of the

1131
01:24:32.320 --> 01:24:40.640
Facebook group and communicate, kind of basically interact with us on the Facebook space, because

1132
01:24:40.640 --> 01:24:46.000
then we can communicate more. We'll be sending out emails and letting you know when we'll be

1133
01:24:46.000 --> 01:24:51.840
doing our next one. But we would really love to do this once a month and just have a place to

1134
01:24:51.840 --> 01:24:56.480
connect. And different times we'll have different themes of communication or topics that we'll be

1135
01:24:56.480 --> 01:24:59.920
discussing. Might have some different people join us and see.

1136
01:25:00.000 --> 01:25:03.940
speak into this whole realm of kingdom creativity.

1137
01:25:03.940 --> 01:25:07.360
So Xylan and myself and Phi will be kind of communicating

1138
01:25:07.360 --> 01:25:11.000
and dreaming and yeah, we'd love to hear from you as well,

1139
01:25:11.000 --> 01:25:12.400
what you'd love to talk about

1140
01:25:12.400 --> 01:25:13.720
and what you'd love to explore.

1141
01:25:13.720 --> 01:25:16.080
But this was just our introductory hello,

1142
01:25:16.080 --> 01:25:17.880
just wanting to say hello to people,

1143
01:25:18.880 --> 01:25:20.440
wanting just to connect with you

1144
01:25:20.440 --> 01:25:22.440
and just see how you're doing

1145
01:25:22.440 --> 01:25:24.680
and kind of start this journey together.

1146
01:25:24.680 --> 01:25:27.800
So yeah, Scott, I'm so glad that it's been a blessing

1147
01:25:27.880 --> 01:25:30.200
and yeah, we'd love to do this once a month.

1148
01:25:31.880 --> 01:25:33.440
Just a reminder,

1149
01:25:33.440 --> 01:25:36.160
you said you were gonna put the Facebook group in the chat,

1150
01:25:36.160 --> 01:25:37.240
it's not there yet.

1151
01:25:38.160 --> 01:25:39.680
No, no, sorry.

1152
01:25:39.680 --> 01:25:41.640
Oh yeah, yeah, I'll do that as well.

1153
01:25:41.640 --> 01:25:42.480
Yeah, you bet.

1154
01:25:42.480 --> 01:25:44.800
So I'll just go do that now,

1155
01:25:44.800 --> 01:25:49.200
just go find Facebook and then basically,

1156
01:25:49.200 --> 01:25:51.640
if you look up raising royalty,

1157
01:25:51.640 --> 01:25:52.760
I'll just put it here,

1158
01:25:52.760 --> 01:25:55.840
raising royalty masterclasses,

1159
01:25:56.840 --> 01:25:57.680
just type it.

1160
01:26:03.960 --> 01:26:07.120
I think it's raising royalty masterclasses, mentoring.

1161
01:26:11.240 --> 01:26:12.400
Training events.

1162
01:26:12.400 --> 01:26:13.840
Training events, there we go.

1163
01:26:14.960 --> 01:26:16.440
Dana, if you're gonna-

1164
01:26:17.720 --> 01:26:18.560
Sorry, Scott.

1165
01:26:19.520 --> 01:26:22.160
I just searched on YouTube as you were speaking.

1166
01:26:22.160 --> 01:26:24.000
Yeah, thank you.

1167
01:26:24.000 --> 01:26:24.960
Perfect.

1168
01:26:26.480 --> 01:26:29.440
Are you gonna have this group in the new platform

1169
01:26:31.000 --> 01:26:34.200
and transition over or just be in Facebook?

1170
01:26:36.840 --> 01:26:38.280
I will definitely talk to Benji,

1171
01:26:38.280 --> 01:26:39.320
we'll just try to figure that out.

1172
01:26:39.320 --> 01:26:41.880
I'm sure that we will have this on our new platform

1173
01:26:41.880 --> 01:26:45.440
because everything that we are doing on Facebook,

1174
01:26:45.440 --> 01:26:46.840
we want on our new platform

1175
01:26:46.840 --> 01:26:49.440
just because we're gonna be transitioning there.

1176
01:26:49.440 --> 01:26:51.320
So I would find the fit, yeah.

1177
01:26:51.320 --> 01:26:55.040
So we're just still kind of getting everything figured out

1178
01:26:55.040 --> 01:26:55.880
on the new platform,

1179
01:26:55.880 --> 01:26:58.560
but yeah, we will definitely be working on that.

1180
01:27:00.440 --> 01:27:02.400
Lots to still be developed.

1181
01:27:03.320 --> 01:27:07.880
Just getting the group link here for you, one second.

1182
01:27:14.120 --> 01:27:17.680
Hi, I just wanted to introduce myself.

1183
01:27:18.720 --> 01:27:21.280
I'm Sue, I'm Susan.

1184
01:27:21.280 --> 01:27:22.120
Hello.

1185
01:27:22.120 --> 01:27:23.360
I'm from Cape Town.

1186
01:27:23.360 --> 01:27:24.200
Hi.

1187
01:27:24.600 --> 01:27:25.520
South Africa.

1188
01:27:27.680 --> 01:27:29.400
I miss actually most of it.

1189
01:27:29.400 --> 01:27:34.400
I got the timing wrong, so I only joined at seven.

1190
01:27:36.520 --> 01:27:39.000
Well, for us, it's seven at night now.

1191
01:27:39.000 --> 01:27:44.000
So, but I love drawing and sketching and poetry.

1192
01:27:45.000 --> 01:27:50.000
I love drawing and sketching and poetry.

1193
01:27:51.280 --> 01:27:56.280
And I think my favorite is when I'm doing a drawing

1194
01:27:57.280 --> 01:28:01.800
or a sketch and I come up with something

1195
01:28:01.800 --> 01:28:03.320
that I wasn't expecting.

1196
01:28:03.320 --> 01:28:05.360
And then I feel like God talks to me

1197
01:28:05.360 --> 01:28:10.360
through what I've created that I love.

1198
01:28:10.400 --> 01:28:13.160
Yeah, and I'm an architectural person.

1199
01:28:14.640 --> 01:28:15.480
Amazing.

1200
01:28:16.640 --> 01:28:19.360
I don't enjoy that much at the moment.

1201
01:28:19.360 --> 01:28:20.200
Okay.

1202
01:28:23.000 --> 01:28:23.840
Thank you.

1203
01:28:23.840 --> 01:28:25.400
I'm sorry I missed so much.

1204
01:28:25.400 --> 01:28:26.680
No, that's okay, Susan.

1205
01:28:26.680 --> 01:28:27.680
We're so glad you're here.

1206
01:28:27.680 --> 01:28:28.800
Thanks for saying hi.

1207
01:28:28.800 --> 01:28:30.040
It's so good to hear your voice.

1208
01:28:30.040 --> 01:28:32.240
And amazing that you're able to catch

1209
01:28:32.240 --> 01:28:33.960
just a little bit of this.

1210
01:28:33.960 --> 01:28:37.720
Again, we will be posting this Zoom chat

1211
01:28:37.720 --> 01:28:39.360
in our Facebook group.

1212
01:28:39.360 --> 01:28:40.760
And Zylan just let me know,

1213
01:28:40.760 --> 01:28:44.640
we will be posting this in our guide 26.

1214
01:28:44.640 --> 01:28:46.280
So that's where Kingdom Creatives is.

1215
01:28:46.280 --> 01:28:49.680
So if you go to the link that I posted with Facebook

1216
01:28:49.680 --> 01:28:52.080
and you go, there's a, at the top,

1217
01:28:52.080 --> 01:28:55.080
there'll be like about discussion and guides.

1218
01:28:55.080 --> 01:28:58.840
If you hit that guide and you go down to guide 26,

1219
01:28:58.840 --> 01:29:00.480
that's the Kingdom Creative way.

1220
01:29:00.480 --> 01:29:05.480
And so we will be posting that Zoom chat there in that area.

1221
01:29:06.800 --> 01:29:07.960
And we'd love to hear from you.

1222
01:29:08.000 --> 01:29:09.880
Please like come and connect with us.

1223
01:29:10.800 --> 01:29:11.640

Come and dialogue with us.

1225
01:29:12.600 --> 01:29:14.120
We'd love to connect with you.

1226
01:29:15.360 --> 01:29:16.200
Yeah.

1227
01:29:16.200 --> 01:29:17.800
And we will send out an email again,

1228
01:29:17.800 --> 01:29:19.160
just like you got this email,

1229
01:29:19.160 --> 01:29:22.880
we'll send another email out in three weeks time,

1230
01:29:22.880 --> 01:29:24.840
letting you know when our next chat is.

1231
01:29:26.040 --> 01:29:26.880
Yeah.

1232
01:29:26.880 --> 01:29:27.720
So thank you.

1233
01:29:27.720 --> 01:29:29.320
Thank you all so much for coming.

1234
01:29:29.320 --> 01:29:32.160
It is so good to see your faces, to hear your voices,

1235
01:29:32.160 --> 01:29:35.720
to know your stories and your, yeah, just your journeys.

1236
01:29:35.720 --> 01:29:38.240
And thank you for coming and being a part of this.

1237
01:29:38.240 --> 01:29:41.040
It's, yeah, it's really amazing to connect with you all.

1238
01:29:42.080 --> 01:29:44.440
Zylan, do you have anything that you want to say?

1239
01:29:47.000 --> 01:29:48.160
I think we are good.

1240
01:29:48.160 --> 01:29:50.760
I mean, it's an amazing time.

1241
01:29:50.760 --> 01:29:51.800
It's so great.

1242
01:29:51.800 --> 01:29:54.400
I mean, there are a lot of writers and sculptors

1243
01:29:54.400 --> 01:29:56.400
and fashion designers, you know,

1244
01:29:56.400 --> 01:30:01.400
a lot of beautiful, excellent people.

1245
01:30:00.000 --> 01:30:07.040
questions here and it'll be really nice you know when we post our uh our video it'll be really nice

1246
01:30:07.040 --> 01:30:15.680
because uh Raising Royalty got like 55k people you know and uh to find all the creative people

1247
01:30:15.680 --> 01:30:23.840
in that like no 50k is it's it's a it's a huge task so it'll be really really great if you guys

1248
01:30:23.840 --> 01:30:30.000
can come and communicate that's why we actually created that guide 26. If you can come I mean

1249
01:30:30.000 --> 01:30:36.240
all the people who are here in this chat if you can come share I mean some of the pictures and

1250
01:30:36.240 --> 01:30:43.680
you know of the of your work or your craft so it'll be really easy for us to just start a

1251
01:30:43.680 --> 01:30:49.600
conversation we are trying to build this uh this community of creative people inside that group and

1252
01:30:50.480 --> 01:30:56.240
um so it'll be easy for you guys to come and talk to us because it's really hard for us

1253
01:30:56.240 --> 01:31:00.560
to find you that's why you know please communicate and we'll be having like
