    Your Emotional Rescue: And God’s Response to Your SOS

    January 21, 2021 /

    The future of the pandemic remains uncertain. Fear about responses to a change of guard in the White House loom over our country. Rumblings of martial law permeate the national conversation. Yet our Jehovah Jirah stands at the crossroads. So don’t panic. Posture yourself for…wait for it: Your emotional rescue: God’s Response to your SOS. It’s ready for the taking. Don’t Fall Prey to Doomsday Mindsets Maybe you aren’t literally wielding a white flag right now. But we are all unsettled to some degree.

    The Winter of Our New Year Discontent?

    January 7, 2021 /

    The Times Square ball dropped on schedule. Calendar pages flipped. Yet the pandemic lingers. And we begrudgingly rang it in with the “new” on the last day of the year. Its mushroom cloud continues its ever-widening reach over the globe, refusing to dissipate. And so, the new season of limited sunlight settles in. The Winter of Our New Year Discontent? It’s here too. But I’m honing in on five fires worth stoking in 2021. The Flames of Faith The most challenging feat of 2020 involves choosing faith over fear. As Christians it’s imperative that we live a life that reflects a profound trust in our Almighty God. If we say…

    Five Vault-Worthy Treasures to Secure From 2020

    December 24, 2020 /

    I’m clinging mightily right now to the old adage “out with the old, in with the new” in these final December days. I may stay up after midnight not merely to greet the new year but to kick out the old one for good. But this year hasn’t solely amounted to a disagreeable lump of coal. I’m now making a different list and checking it twice. Here’s my gift of insight to you: Five Vault-Worthy Treasures to Secure from 2020 Increased Patience and Flexibility To be sure, we live in an instantaneous culture.

Are you too hard on yourself? I’m learning that m Are you too hard on yourself? 
I’m learning that my quest for perfection and my obsession with an inauthentic image leads to stagnation and inertia. 
Thankfully, God doesn’t want His servants frozen in fear. He stands ready to redeem us, strengthen and equip us. He wants to mobilize His kingdom workers. I share how I finally got over myself and emptied myself out to He could fill me up with every good and perfect thing from above. Visit www.cindyyorks.com to read the blog and discover my written and audio content.
This Thursday marks the day after a couple of deca This Thursday marks the day after a couple of decades of serving in a long term non-denominational Bible study. It’s been a supportive, comfortable and nurturing environment that I have learned in and grown through. But in recent months I’ve felt the Holy Spirit shifting me into something different. 
The shift has not been without its challenges. Because before we are shifted, often we are sifted. And that has certainly been true for me. After a challenging season of grueling refinement, God  has me ready for  a new next step. And my foot feels ready to land, but God is taking His time revealing what terrain my foot is supposed to hit.
And that time frame in this unknown terrain feels unsettling.
So I will dig into the work in front of me and wait to see what He has for me moving forward.
Are you like me, sometimes uncomfortable in the messy middle? Join me in waiting on God and trusting in the uncomfortable “in between.” 🙌Isaiah 43:19.
People who’ve known me all my life are laughing ri People who’ve known me all my life are laughing right now if they are seeing this visual. I’m not much of a sports fan. But I know a triple play when I see it! For me, this divine intervention proved to be a lifesaver.
I hope my latest blog on rescue and redemption ministers to your heart. I love how God never wastes a hurt. Share with a friend you know who’s got all four hooves in the air. We’ve all been there.

I’m so honored to be a featured guest on this, the I’m so honored to be a featured guest on this, the 98th episode of Fierce Calling. I share a bit of my journey from the world of glam to the path God set before me. I pray it will be a blessing to you!
It’s rare to see a prayer box on the outside of a It’s rare to see a prayer box on the outside of a church building. But I really love the idea of inviting people into prayer right off the sidewalk.
The truth is that some people are hesitant to enter a church dwelling. They might feel intimidated. Or burdened with guilt or shame. Or they might be anxious if what could be demanded or expected of them once they are inside.
So I love the approach of this church in Hudson NY that invited people to leave their requests at the gate. It’s a baby step but it’s progress.
How do you make your requests known to the Lord? Do you approach Him boldly with confidence yourself? Or do you only ask others to pray for you and cross that off your to do list?
I had a little epiphany the other day and realized I’m guilty of that. Sometimes I find I’m too lazy or distracted to “pray without ceasing” and relegate the task to others. Our loving Father God wants a personal dialogue between Him and His children. And that dialogue begins with us coming to Him in an authentic way. 
Join me in being persistent in prayer and thanking God for inviting us to petition for our needs and heart’s desires.
I plunge into proverbial pools without looking far I plunge into proverbial pools without looking far too often. Impulsivity is great for getting us off the couch but isn’t always so wonderful when it cones to strategizing final destinations.
That’s why Jesus is our best GPS. He alone possesses the long view. He is our Good Shepherd and we must trust His leadings. We can never begin to know where the still, quiet waters are. In fact, without His direction we might easily drift towards disaster. 
Join me in pursuing God’s path and acquiescing to His trajectory in deference and obedience. 🙌Proverbs 16:9.
