  What's one lesson from this conversation that you'll be carrying with you this week?

  If the prophetic causes pride dump it.  If it causes humility keep it.  👏🏽👏🏽

  I love what Rita says, not everything you do and enjoy needs to be a calling. Often, as expressive humans, we simply express through various means. That is just being human. Does not mean we need to leave everything and go make that our lives. Just sit and enjoy what you are good at and then go out and be a simple human living simple human lives with your simple family and simple church.

  I’m 72 now and recently went back to wear we lived for 40 years and the Lord showed me some of my legacy in northern Michigan.<br>I had forgotten what the Lord lead me to do over the years.<br>In one church I was able to see the continued fruit of my obedience to teach, pray or love and disciple beautiful people.<br>In the little house of prayer I helped to lead I always knew it was making a difference in our area even if no one showed up.<br>Just love Him and do it all for Jesus.

  Rita, Harvest was speaking truth to you. &nbsp;Your calling now is to do EXACTLY what you are doing here, to pour into the new generation as a spiritual mother, mentor and intercessor (a sword) raising up the new generations that have come after you. &nbsp;You are doing it, sister! &nbsp;It is all about HIM. &nbsp;&quot;Father, how can I serve you today?&quot;

  You don’t know how much I deeply understood every single word of this particular episode. All my life I have fought to be a voice, and I’m still fighting to remain with the heart of a priest before the Lord. ALL of this felt like a narration of my own life. Thank You Lord. He knew I needed to see more women ministers express these same trials. Especially the honor of simply being a doorkeeper, and being caught in an industry that did not understand what to do with me nor did they respect that about the sacredness of this calling. Being surrounded by the voices of men in an industry that ran exactly like a worldly one, while calling it ministry. It was so disorienting to me. But praise the LORD, He has given us a new song!

  I love this so much! Jumping up and down about worship leaders being &quot;separate&quot; - I love coming back to the idea that worship leaders do it out of faithfulness to Jesus - for the purpose of intimacy with him and helping others to know him, not &quot;to get their songs out&quot;

  This is so good. As an intercessor people don&apos;t get that I am NOT called to the Platform. YES YES YES.

  I can so relate! I was raised in ministry and in the house prayer. Words about prophetic words. I got tired and ran. But He is bringing back to that place of first love and just worshipping again like I use to. Because it’s all about Him
