Episode 13: Reverence Leads to Flourishing
Reading: Proverbs 9:10-10:12
In today’s episode, Jane reflects on Proverbs 9:10, which states that "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is insight." Jane discusses how reverence for God is essential in navigating the path of Lady Wisdom, which involves surrendering and submitting our allegiance to God. Without this posture of reverence, we can lose respect for people and creation, which can lead to a negative work culture. Jane challenges listeners to consider their posture in the workplace and to embrace a posture of Holy reverence to God in order to create spaces where people and creation can flourish.
Polished Chapter Meetings
Get ready to bloom this spring with Polished chapter meetings happening in April, May, and June! Join us at polishednetwork.org/chapters and connect with like-minded women as we explore different themes that will help you flourish and grow.
In April, we'll be exploring "Bloom Creatively" to help you tap into your creative side and find inspiration in unexpected places. Did you know?- Recent research shows that engaging in creative activities can have a significant impact on your mood, nervous system, and even the wiring of your brain. Who knew that the simple act of dancing, cooking, or singing could spark innovation and new ideas? Even if you don't consider yourself particularly artistic, tapping into your creative side could be just what you need to gain a fresh perspective, overcome challenges, and break free from a rut. Join us this month as we explore the benefits of creativity and how to harness its power in the workplace.
May is all about "Bloom in Your Season," so you can learn to embrace the natural ebb and flow of life and find joy in each season. And in June, we'll "Bloom Together," so you can connect with other women in your community and create meaningful relationships that will last a lifetime.
Don't miss out on this opportunity to connect, grow, and bloom with Polished this spring. Join us at polishednetwork.org/chapters and be a part of something truly special.
