- So, the question is, why Realign? CONNECT WITH PEOPLE IN THE GROUP! Over the past 8 years, we’ve worked with thousands of people. Each of them with a unique financial story. I’m not sure where you are at – college loans, fighting We would get people on a budget, get them out of debt BUT transformation was now happening. We weren’t getting to the deeper issues that caused us to get out of alignement in the first place.
- In the garden of Eden at the beginning there was perfection!
- In the garden we see that there was perfection in EVERY Area of life. Their relationship with God was perfect. They were serving one another. Washing dishes. Doing the laundry. Their identity was secure. They had no anxiety about what their calling was. And what we don’t usually discuss here is that their relationship with Creation was perfect. They managed God’s provision perfectly.
- The serpent comes to the woman
- Through the years we have met with literally hundreds of people who have financial issues. Whether it is lack of budgeting, money fights, inability to keep a job, or they are in debt up to their eyeballs, every single one of them wants a quick fix. They come in and say, “Here is my main issue, now tell me what to do.” But what I’ve noticed, is that there is usually a little bit more going on underneath the surface that is driving those actions. We use this chart to explain what is really going on. Erik Erikson says that “trust is the foundational development task for humans.” From this place of trust, we build our belief systems about life. Whatever you trust, you will belief, and from those beliefs will come your actions.
- What is satan attacking at this point? He is attacking TRUST!
- Satan attacked Eve at the foundation of TRUST. And as trust was broken, it led to broken beliefs, and ultimately broken fruits or actions called SIN.
- The serpent comes to the woman
- Satan attacked Eve at the foundation of TRUST. And as trust was broken, it led to broken beliefs, and ultimately broken fruits or actions called SIN. We continue to go through these cycles of broken trust leading to broken beliefs leading to broken actions.
