Great post, Lisa! It is really encouraging to remember that just showing up can be enough and it can put us in a position where God can use us even if we feel inadequate.

Yes. “We don’t have to show up with the answers. Just show up with ourselves, just as we are. If we show up, God will, too.” My husband says that half of life is just showing up. And when we show up humble, ready to learn, we even go farther.

Lisa, what a great perspective. I never looked at it that way. Thank you for bringing that to my attention for reflection. Blessings.

Amen! Some days, just showing up in hard. I’ve had to seek professional help to get unstuck and start showing up. I’ve discovered showing up FOR help is just as important as showing up TO help!

So much wisdom in this mantra, Lisa. I’m trying to do this on a daily basis.
Looking forward to reading this series.

All the rest comes easier when we start by showing up. Good word!

Great reminder on how to show up, with heart and mind. Too often I will show up but am not there 100%.

Lisa, I love this. Just show up. We may show up with nothing but ourselves, but that’s often what’s most needed.

“We don’t have to show up with the answers. Just show up with ourselves, just as we are.”

Great post!

Great mantra, Miss Lisa. I have found of late it also applies to my helping my sister, who has lost her beloved husband of many years. I don’t need to have the words, but if I show up, she will know I care.

Tx for your inspiration. I’ve been thinking about the short, pithy, memorable guiding principles that have helped me and begun a list. Because they are short they can be remembered and injected like a quick boost of adrenalin for enlivening us. I so appreciate you! You yourself are a boost to the flagging spirit.

Love
Lynn
