A Grounded Presence - Enneagram 1

Created to Awaken, Called to Abide Series

---

AWAKEN -- I am good for God calls me His (CHILD)

ASK -- Who am I when over-commitment, pre-occupation or unfinished business creeps in?  What need am I missing? (safety). Which lies surface repeatedly? How does resentment falsely fill that gap?

"Lord, don’t You care that my sister has left me to do all the work alone?" (preparing everything to be just right) JESUS replied, ‘Martha, Martha, you are worried and bothered about so many things; but ONLY ONE thing is necessary for Mary has chosen what is BETTER." (listening at the foot of JESUS) - Luke 10:38-42 (PRESENCE) 

TRUTH

ALIGN -- Where belonging replaces misplaced responsibility.   (I am integral)

I am enough, (I am not flawed) I do enough, ( I am not behind), (I am more than enough. (I am patient, I am worthy of grace)

I embrace peace with what is. (I relinquish control, I am free)

SACRED JOY

ADORE -- Where God is a good, good Father

I accept God’s extravagant affections of me I allow God’s constant delight in me  

I admire God’s ever closeness to me

GRACE

ABIDE -- Where "Christ in Me" prevails. (GROUNDED)     

Who I am becoming… (day by day). Beautifully GENUINE!

 "See what great love the Father has LAVISHED on us that we should be called CHILDREN of God! And that is what we are." - 1 John 3:1

"Do not be anxious about anything, but with prayer and petition with thanksgiving, present your requests to God and the peace of God which transcends all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus." - Phil. 4:6-7
