Activate- Anointed 2025

 

I just finished my company's conference. I was so sad that I wouldn't be able to make it this year, but I was able to because it was all digital. After moving, and for particular reasons, I would not be able to fly to where it was being held. But because it was digital, I didn't have to miss it.

I love my company and the people in it. I sometimes grow in isolation, and this may be why I am not growing leaps and bounds as other people have. Side note and totally unrelated to the theme of this post. I have a tough time making friends and also relationships in general. I have always been someone who needs to observe someone before I can befriend them. So it takes me much longer than the average person.

This year, the conference is always called Activate, but the theme changes. The year I joined Kingdom Alliance, the conference was revival, last year it was dominion, and this year it was anointed. For the first time done digitally a certain way it was a great job. I wanted more but I will go back and listen to the recordings to absorb more.

I really want God to move and work through me and I know a big part is about sharing about this fantastic company. Because of KA, I am a published author, I am back to reviving my blog and using my voice more. Which leads me to what I heard numerous times during the conference and I feel God was speaking to me about what kept repeating was its time to use my voice.

I have always preferred the written form of communication. I still like to get things in written so I can reflect back. I have a hard time retaining things when its just by hearing. I remember more when it's written down, or if I have it written somewhere, I can always go back to read it. This is me, how I learn and retain things.

I feel like God is really nudging me, maybe even poking a little to stop staying silent. While written is my fave form of communication, he wants to use my vocal voice more, too. So to stop hiding in the shadows and get out there. There is also a nudge to stop procrastinating and get started on a project that has been on my mind and that I've been wanting to do since last year. So it's been over a year and I still have not gotten started. It's time to start.

Conditions will never be perfect. I don't need to be perfect to start, but I do need to start to get to perfect (although perfection will never be on this planet). So two things I got from the conference that were not necessarily what they presented, but one, it's time to use my voice, and two, it's time to start on my project.

I genuinely love my company, and I just can't imagine it not being there. I can't imagine the people it has brought into my life. Those that pursue growth, those that want to grow in their leadership and yes, we are all leaders (post for another day).

I am sad so many people missed out. I am sorry so many have walked away, but maybe with the news that they launched during the conference, maybe some people will come back. Who knows, but it leads me also to think of this quote that really propels me some days, and it's,

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has. by Margaret Mead

I don't feel necessarily like I got anointed but I do feel I got what God wanted me to get out of this weekend. I might not be burning with passion but sometimes its a small steady flame that gets things moving and grooving. We are used to it because we are fed big, dramatic events happening, and we miss the smaller details that are equally impressive. We often overlook the small miracles. I don't think its all about massive fireworks, sometimes what we need is a quiet whisper.

I can't wait to see how things will unfold and what will happen in a year time.
