The Junk That Can Heal a Heart

https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-32rnw-19ae534

Sometimes the smallest, most ordinary moments carry the greatest power to heal. In this episode, Kelly shares a touching story about how something as simple as giving away an old light turned into a divine appointment — reminding us that God can use anything to reach a heart in need.

With warmth and gentle wisdom, Kelly invites you to slow down, listen for the Holy Spirit’s whispers, and trust that no act of kindness or obedience is ever wasted. One person’s “junk” might just be the treasure that helps another soul heal.

Be encouraged to look for the butterfly thoughts — those gentle nudges from God — that can transform lives one day at a time, one thought at a time.

 

That’s It! I Have Accepted It – Embracing Hope and God’s Best

https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-rfuii-1742d61

Welcome to the Butterfly Thoughts Podcast with Kelly Savage, where we explore transformative thoughts inspired by the Holy Spirit.

In this episode, titled “That’s It, I’ve Accepted It,” Kelly shares a poignant moment from a Hallmark movie that sparked a profound reflection on acceptance of our current status or discouragement and reigniting hope in the midst and regaining hope, faith and a knowing of God’s plan.

Join Kelly as she delves into the realization that many of us settle for less, not because it’s what we desire, but due to lost hope. She encourages listeners to reignite their hope and trust in God’s plans, reminding us of the cost of settling and the rewards of waiting for God’s best.

Through personal anecdotes and scriptural insights, Kelly offers practical steps to rediscover hope, reconnect with God, and take steps of faith toward a fulfilling life.

Tune in for an inspiring conversation that challenges us to live faith over fear and embrace the purpose God has for us.

You’re Killing Me!

https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-9g27v-1447b58

I think we have all heard the phrase “You’re killing me”. 

From the movie “Sandlot”, we jokingly use the phrase “You’re killing me Smalls”.

It’s funny.  Makes me laugh.

I have said it.

More than once.

So, what made yesterday different when I heard these same words?

Today was different when I heard the phrase.

Let’s call it a reflective moment, growth, light bulb moment, or whatever we want to label it.

I was spending time with my granddaughter and my friend, and we were having a blast. Laughing and enjoying the pool at the level of an almost 3-year-old.

You see, 3-year-olds see the world so differently than we do as adults.

I will insert here – we should see the world in the eyes of a 3-year-old more often. 

My how our perspectives and life would change.  More on that later.

Picture this. 

3-year-old. In the pool.  You do something that they laugh at and are happy with, and what do they do?  You hear “Do it again!’  “Do it again!”

Amid the laughter and the “do it again” moments my friend said, “You’re killing me” jokingly as my granddaughter asked her to go under the water again and again. 

I laughed.  Mostly at the thought of her going under for the 20th time and it wasn’t me at that moment.

Before you know, we were all laughing but perhaps for different reasons.

BOOM!

Butterfly Thought flew in. 

And this is where the day just blossomed…..

 

 

Hopeful Expectations

https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-c8cgx-1348f50

Today, the sermon issue was during a walk, with me and God.  Oh, and my dog.  I talk to my dog, Loki, all the time on our walks.  But sometimes, like today, I was reflecting and talking to God.  Praying and reflecting.  Loki was just my loyal side kick.

 

You see, I am one that believes sermons can be taught anywhere, at any time and sometimes by the oddest circumstances. Sometimes lessons are taught with just you and God working things out, being convicted or taught by the Holy Spirit, sometimes through people that you wouldn’t even think would be used to teach you, sometimes children, or moments that are powerful, like an “ah-ha” moment that changes your perspective that you didn’t even know you needed changing, or in church, the traditional way.  Possibilities of lessons in our life that we can learn from are plenty! 

 

Perhaps the main ingredients needed are open hearts, a willingness to learn, seeing different perspectives, and humility to know we will only reach perfection when we go home to heaven and be in His full presence.

 

So, in my sermon lesson today, God and I were having a conversation about expectations.

 

Expectation meaning in the dictionary is explained as …….

 

ex·pec·ta·tion

[ˌekspekˈtāSH(ə)n]

NOUN

 

  1. a strong belief that something will happen or be the case in the future:

Don’t Care Freedom

https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-ath6g-13036f0

Don’t Care FREEDOM!

 

That’s the name of this episode!  Let me say it one more time louder. DON’T CARE FREEDOM!

 

That is exactly what I experienced tonight!

 

No, it doesn’t mean that I don’t care about others, or things, especially things that really matter.

 

It is a freedom that you get when you reached a level of freedom within yourself.

 

I am working out of town this week and I am trying to stick to my 2 miles a day walk.  Last night was a little tough since it was raining and cloudy and got dusk early so, I didn’t want to walk outside.  I decided to do it inside.  And yes, you can choose to walk inside if that is the only possible avenue to get the job done.

 

I walked 2 miles in my hotel room.  I mean it.  I am not lying.  I have my apple app to prove it however, I guess it doesn’t show my laps as an oval shape in a 20 ft room, so therefore, you will have to just take my word on that.  I chose that over not walking at all and here to encourage you that you can do the same 😊

 

I am sure most will find it extreme, however, I find walking stress relieving what can I say.  It was a little wonky in a hotel room BUT, I did feel accomplished afterward and had a chuckle on myself.

 

Tonight, was different.  I was walking all around a University campus.  Warm for a November 1st night, but oh so beautiful.  So I took full advantage.

 

I put my air pods on and set off.  Yes, I needed to be diligently looking around with those in my ears and my music on to be safety conscious.

 

 So, please picture this…….and enjoy the podcast!

 

Thanks for listening.
