00:00:00.641 --> 00:00:02.185
In our fast-paced society.
00:00:02.185 --> 00:00:05.432
So many times we just want the result.
00:00:05.432 --> 00:00:12.432
We look at somebody who has success and we say, oh, look how they've done, look how amazing things are for them.
00:00:12.432 --> 00:00:14.243
I wish my life was like that.
00:00:14.345 --> 00:00:15.127
They're so lucky.
00:00:15.326 --> 00:00:20.609
They're so lucky, but are we thinking about the seeds that they've sown?
00:00:20.609 --> 00:00:26.871
Today, we're going to talk about a kingdom principle for reaping the harvest that you desire.
00:00:26.871 --> 00:00:30.550
Hey sister, welcome to the Power On Plants podcast.
00:00:30.550 --> 00:00:35.892
Are you tired of staring into the fridge wondering what to eat so you can just feel better?
00:00:35.892 --> 00:00:41.292
Do you want to avoid spending hours in the kitchen making complicated meals in the name of health?
00:00:41.292 --> 00:00:47.552
Would you love to leave fatigue behind and finally have the energy to do all the things you want to do?
00:00:47.552 --> 00:00:55.229
Hi, we're Sheridan and I need to resell Christ Followers, healthcare professionals, parents of four and big fans of great tasting food.
00:00:55.820 --> 00:01:07.450
We, too, tried exercising more, eating natural and clean foods, but we still found ourselves struggling with what we thought were changes that come with age or bad genes, and we weren't finding answers to traditional routes.
00:01:07.450 --> 00:01:14.691
So we dug into the research and created our secret nutritional weapon sustainable plant based living.
00:01:14.691 --> 00:01:18.450
The truth is, you can eat more whole plant foods and it's not hard.
00:01:18.450 --> 00:01:23.631
You just need the way that's realistic and delicious so you never feel deprived.
00:01:23.631 --> 00:01:31.870
If you're ready to enjoy your meals, no longer be held back by your health struggles and actively live your life, then you're in the right place.
00:01:31.870 --> 00:01:37.150
So grab your favorite plant based cup of happy pop in those earbuds and let's get started.
00:01:37.150 --> 00:01:40.108
Hey there, sunshine.
00:01:40.108 --> 00:01:42.507
We love being back with you again today.
00:01:42.780 --> 00:01:50.575
You know, sheridan, and I like giving you a peek behind the scenes, because I wish you were here all the time when we have these plant based conversations.
00:01:50.575 --> 00:01:55.811
But this is one way that we can bring you here with us and it's sharing the things that we've been talking about.
00:01:55.811 --> 00:02:02.448
One of the things that we've been talking about recently is it's so easy to look at someone and where they are and the success that they've gotten.
00:02:02.448 --> 00:02:13.927
Let's say you're reading a plant based testimonial or you're listening to one like about John or Robin or one of our other members who've gotten these amazing results, and you're looking at it and you're thinking I want that now.
00:02:14.139 --> 00:02:16.126
I want that now, you know, because I get that.
00:02:16.126 --> 00:02:16.929
I've been there.
00:02:16.929 --> 00:02:26.973
I was so sick when I had 40 years old and I would see people who were walking around well and doing well and see testimonials of people who have broken free from stuff and think that is so great for them.
00:02:26.973 --> 00:02:28.943
I'm so glad that they broke free.
00:02:28.943 --> 00:02:35.235
But I want that too, and I wanted it then Like I wanted it right then, because I was in the middle of my misery.
00:02:35.235 --> 00:02:36.039
Well, who can blame you?
00:02:36.502 --> 00:02:40.580
I mean if you're in the middle of it and you feel like you're at the lowest point in your life.
00:02:40.580 --> 00:02:42.948
You want results and you want them now.
00:02:43.770 --> 00:02:43.971
Right.
00:02:43.971 --> 00:02:49.016
And what I want to encourage you is that sometimes the answer is very simple.
00:02:49.016 --> 00:02:53.368
And not only is it simple, you can start getting results rather quickly.
00:02:53.368 --> 00:03:00.953
But when you're in the throws of the difficult situation, don't let yourself get stuck just looking at the result.
00:03:00.953 --> 00:03:09.625
You won't absolutely look at the result, but realize that to get there, you've got to plant the seed first.
00:03:09.625 --> 00:03:18.729
You got to plant the seeds, but I want you to realize that to get where you want to be, there's a crucial step that's got to happen first.
00:03:18.729 --> 00:03:27.360
If you want to reap a harvest, you must plant the seeds, and it has to be the right seeds.
00:03:27.419 --> 00:03:28.062
It has to be the seeds.
00:03:28.062 --> 00:03:29.064
I was just thinking that same thing.
00:03:29.314 --> 00:03:32.662
Yeah, it's gotta be the seeds that are gonna bring you the desired harvest.
00:03:32.875 --> 00:03:35.599
If you plant green bean seeds, you are not gonna get an eggplant.
00:03:35.599 --> 00:03:39.801
So if you really want an eggplant, you gotta plant eggplant seeds.
00:03:39.801 --> 00:03:41.538
That's a little bit of a tongue twister there.
00:03:42.956 --> 00:03:47.561
It is, but it's true, Because seeds we know from the word and just from living and life.
00:03:47.561 --> 00:03:51.823
You plant a tomato seed, it's going to grow a tomato plant right.
00:03:51.823 --> 00:04:06.122
And so the important thing here is to realize I just need to start planting the seeds I can today, the seeds I can, and they've got to be the right seeds and the more seeds you plant.
00:04:06.122 --> 00:04:07.799
I want you to think about farming.
00:04:07.879 --> 00:04:10.883
Even if you're not a farmer, you understand the basics of farming right.
00:04:10.883 --> 00:04:16.603
A farmer's not gonna go out into his field and expect a harvest when he hasn't planted any seeds.
00:04:16.603 --> 00:04:26.641
You can't do that with your health or in any other area of your life either, and I understand how hard it is and that you're in this place and you want the results today.
00:04:26.641 --> 00:04:38.862
But odds are, even in the situation you're in and you think it's hard and you think it's so difficult, or you felt like you're stuck with it because things have been spoken over you and you've accepted these words and you think things can't turn around.
00:04:38.862 --> 00:04:47.062
Things can turn around, but what first has to happen is the right seeds have to be planted Because, again, you can't go out into your field.
00:04:47.062 --> 00:04:49.201
Think about how crazy you would think that farmer is.
00:04:49.201 --> 00:04:52.584
He goes out into his field one morning.
00:04:52.584 --> 00:05:00.043
He's gathered all his equipment that morning to go out and to reap the harvest, knowing he's never planted one single seed.
00:05:00.043 --> 00:05:01.860
He would think he was crazy.
00:05:02.175 --> 00:05:06.363
He hasn't planted a seed, or you just mentioned planting many seeds.
00:05:06.363 --> 00:05:11.084
If you plant a few, you might get a few tomatoes in the case of tomato plants.
00:05:11.084 --> 00:05:13.742
But what if you want a lot of tomatoes?
00:05:13.742 --> 00:05:19.843
You have to plant a lot of tomato seeds to get that size of harvest there.
00:05:20.115 --> 00:05:24.637
This fits so well with whole food, plant-based living, because we know that.
00:05:24.637 --> 00:05:25.221
We know that.
00:05:25.221 --> 00:05:35.540
We know that the chronic diseases of our time are lifestyle-related the top chronic diseases of our time and a lot of that boils down to the food that goes into your body.
00:05:35.540 --> 00:06:07.761
Think of it as the seed, and when you can learn what the right seeds are and then learn how to make getting those on a regular basis simple and enjoyable and delicious, you're gonna be scattering the right seeds left and right into your life, day after day after day, and what we see through the research and what we see in our own lives as a physician assistant and a nurse working with our clients, working with our patients, we see, time after time, that those who plant a few seeds are gonna get some results.
00:06:08.654 --> 00:06:25.403
Those who plant more of the right seeds are going to get the results, the harvest that they want, the one that they can see in their mind that they start gaining hope and feeling is possible, the things that they want, the things that they were born to have in this world.
00:06:25.403 --> 00:06:36.836
You were born to be able to thrive in a certain area, to help certain people, to serve, to bring more people into the truth of what God has for them.
00:06:36.836 --> 00:06:40.615
This isn't just about you and getting your heart right and getting things right.
00:06:40.615 --> 00:06:55.776
It's about you being able to being in a place where your body is physically able to think clearly and to feel good, so that you can get out there and share the message that God's laid on your heart of His truth and whatever area he's empowered you to do that.
00:06:56.045 --> 00:07:03.706
And another element with picking the right seeds is that some plants will produce fruit very quickly Tomatoes Typically.
00:07:03.706 --> 00:07:06.613
Within about two to three months you have something that you can eat.
00:07:06.613 --> 00:07:12.416
Other plants, certain fruit trees they may take several years before they provide fruit.
00:07:12.416 --> 00:07:17.276
The tree grows, but it may be a few years before it actually gives some type of harvest.
00:07:17.276 --> 00:07:21.956
So you also want to look at those things that are going to create the biggest impact first.
00:07:21.956 --> 00:07:29.494
If you're in the middle of a situation like Anita was 10, 12 years ago, you may want to pick those right seeds that are going to give you the biggest things.
00:07:29.494 --> 00:07:46.791
I know for us if we had cut out the oils we had changed the oils that we were using at that time and got a little bit of improvement like doing the higher omega-3s, but if we had just cut out oil altogether, I think she would have seen a much bigger impact very quickly.
00:07:47.565 --> 00:07:54.069
Yes, and this is where you learn, when you can get into a group coaching setting where someone can show you like us.
00:07:54.069 --> 00:07:58.411
It's walk through this journey before You've got to learn the steps to take first.
00:07:58.411 --> 00:08:00.151
What's the most important thing for me here?
00:08:00.151 --> 00:08:01.870
What should I be doing first?
00:08:01.870 --> 00:08:06.096
What seeds should I get in the ground that's going to give me the quickest result.
00:08:06.096 --> 00:08:13.035
If you're hungry and you want to eat sooner, you want to get the seeds in the ground that are going to produce sooner, that are going to give you the results you need quicker.
00:08:13.035 --> 00:08:16.192
But then you also have to learn how to make it sustainable.
00:08:16.192 --> 00:08:17.637
That's what Jared and I are all about.
00:08:17.637 --> 00:08:20.132
We're not just about how do you eat whole food plant-based.
00:08:20.132 --> 00:08:26.423
We're about how do you make whole food plant-based sustainable, because you can learn a few facts about how do you eat whole food plant-based.
00:08:26.423 --> 00:08:33.308
But the real key, the real issue that most people have, is how do I do this for life and actually enjoy it?
00:08:33.308 --> 00:08:36.513
That's making it sustainable, finding plant-based joy.
00:08:36.513 --> 00:08:43.254
So you've got to be planting those seeds the seeds you're joyful about every single day.
00:08:43.254 --> 00:08:45.652
And some people say, well, can I just do a little bit?
00:08:45.652 --> 00:08:47.150
Yeah, you can do whatever you want.
00:08:47.150 --> 00:08:49.230
This is your life.
00:08:49.230 --> 00:08:52.634
But you've got to decide what harvest do I want to reap?
00:08:52.634 --> 00:09:00.972
What has God planted in my heart and what condition does my body need to be in To be able to do the things that God's called me to do?
00:09:00.972 --> 00:09:09.952
The things I'm passionate about, the things that I don't have enough energy at the end of the day to get done after I've done all the necessaries, like those things.
00:09:09.952 --> 00:09:17.292
A lot of people have enough energy and feel good enough to push through and to get those things done, that they have to get done.
00:09:17.292 --> 00:09:19.211
But what about those passion projects?
00:09:19.211 --> 00:09:22.653
What about the things that God really wants you to pour into?
00:09:22.653 --> 00:09:25.712
We want you to feel good enough to do those things.
00:09:25.712 --> 00:09:28.909
The necessary things are necessary, don't get me wrong.
00:09:28.909 --> 00:09:30.769
You've got to take care of those things.
00:09:30.769 --> 00:09:45.754
But we want you to feel good enough and we know that it's possible to feel good to have your body physically show up for you in the capacity you need it to, so that you're able to get out there and enjoy the things that you want to enjoy.
00:09:45.754 --> 00:09:54.629
And when you're doing that, you're going to make the connections that God wants you to make, because you're spending time in His Word and you're planting the seeds that make your body feel good.
00:09:54.629 --> 00:10:03.034
So now you're able to get out there and share the message he has for you to share, make the connections and learn from the mentors he's going to put in your life.
00:10:03.034 --> 00:10:04.931
All these different things are going to happen.
00:10:04.931 --> 00:10:11.410
Think about the opportunities you'll have when you feel good enough to actually get out into the world to actually live life.
00:10:11.410 --> 00:10:13.014
That you can't do right now.
00:10:13.524 --> 00:10:18.634
That is the key to eating whole plant foods in the sustainable way is all about.
00:10:18.634 --> 00:10:20.359
We're not just about the food.
00:10:20.359 --> 00:10:21.870
The food is a tool.
00:10:21.870 --> 00:10:23.073
This is a tool.
00:10:23.073 --> 00:10:25.231
It's a seed you're going to plant into your life.
00:10:25.231 --> 00:10:29.711
And again, the more seeds you plant, the better, and the order is important.
00:10:29.711 --> 00:10:33.455
So you need to get into the community where you can learn how to do that.
00:10:33.455 --> 00:10:38.715
Get the coaching that you need, get the program that's going to walk you through step by step.
00:10:38.715 --> 00:10:40.491
We have that coming out for you in the future.
00:10:40.605 --> 00:10:43.514
We want you to know what do I do next?
00:10:43.514 --> 00:10:48.557
What is the most important seed to plant so that I can reap the harvest that I'm after?
00:10:48.557 --> 00:10:57.696
In general, it's whole plant foods, and then it's how do I do that in the way that is sustainable for me, you got to enjoy it.
00:10:57.696 --> 00:10:58.697
It's got to be joyful.
00:10:58.697 --> 00:11:12.850
And to make it joyful, what I know what I know as a busy woman who wants to be able to share and live out the plans that God has for me is that it's got to be quick and simple, but it's got to make my taste buds really happy.
00:11:12.850 --> 00:11:13.975
It's got to taste good.
00:11:14.210 --> 00:11:18.201
If I don't enjoy it, I'm not going to want to keep doing it the rest of my life.
00:11:18.201 --> 00:11:19.794
You shouldn't have to pitch through.
00:11:19.794 --> 00:11:21.755
You shouldn't have to do a weight loss program.
00:11:21.755 --> 00:11:25.755
You shouldn't have to go on a diet that is not sustainable.
00:11:25.755 --> 00:11:35.278
You've got to drop that mentality and that's why, as I'm developing our course and working with our members, we're talking about our five foundational steps.
00:11:35.278 --> 00:11:41.154
You're getting these seeds, these seeds that are going to bring you the harvest that you're after into your life.
00:11:41.154 --> 00:11:47.662
And those steps are getting your mindset right, getting rid of the myths that you believed.
00:11:47.662 --> 00:11:51.859
Busting the myths is key, but then you've got to replace them with truths.
00:11:51.859 --> 00:11:59.640
Then you've got to get your environment right the people, places and things and you've got to know what to eat and how to make it delicious and how to make it quick and simple.
00:11:59.640 --> 00:12:01.370
Those are our five pillars.
00:12:01.370 --> 00:12:03.495
So right now, wrap your mind around.
00:12:03.495 --> 00:12:05.600
What is the harvest I want in my life?
00:12:05.600 --> 00:12:11.534
What are these dreams that God's birthed in my life that I put on the back burner because I'm just trying to survive right now?
00:12:11.534 --> 00:12:14.335
I am so sorry that you're in that situation.
00:12:14.335 --> 00:12:14.936
I get it.
00:12:14.936 --> 00:12:15.657
I've been there.
00:12:15.657 --> 00:12:16.879
It is hard.
00:12:16.879 --> 00:12:17.822
It is hard.
00:12:17.822 --> 00:12:21.298
Listen, you are listening to somebody who understands what you're going through.
00:12:21.298 --> 00:12:22.975
I am praying for you.
00:12:22.975 --> 00:12:24.354
We are here for you.
00:12:24.354 --> 00:12:28.986
We are on your side and we can help you walk this journey and get the results you're after.
00:12:29.006 --> 00:12:30.634
But you've got to know what the results you're after.
00:12:30.634 --> 00:12:32.460
Have that harvest in mind.
00:12:32.460 --> 00:12:40.620
And as you get that harvest in mind and you see the clear vision of it, you're going to know I've got to start planting the seeds.
00:12:40.620 --> 00:12:43.578
You're going to stand outside in your mind, you're going to close your mind.
00:12:43.578 --> 00:12:46.938
You're going to see yourself standing outside and you're going to see that harvest.
00:12:46.938 --> 00:12:55.894
And you're going to know that it would be crazy to expect the harvest if you never plant the right seeds, if you never plant any seeds at all.
00:12:55.894 --> 00:12:57.177
But you don't get the right seeds.
00:12:57.177 --> 00:13:03.875
And then you want to start learning which ones do I need to plant first and which ones are going to give me sustainability.
00:13:04.529 --> 00:13:11.001
So the takeaway today is plant seeds with your desired harvest in mind.
00:13:11.001 --> 00:13:15.158
Plant the seeds with your desired harvest in mind.
00:13:15.158 --> 00:13:18.674
There is hope you can do this.
00:13:18.674 --> 00:13:21.653
Plant foods it's a fact.
00:13:21.653 --> 00:13:32.544
