Tag: When In Rome

TahiraROMA: vol. 9

May 13, 2019July 14, 2019 itsimaniLeave a comment

When in Rome…DO as the Romans do… What does that even mean in modern day Rome? And who are these Romans you might ask? Of all the various cities I have visited in my short life, I have never met a city so inundated with cultural complexities. The disparities between the young and old, localContinue reading TahiraROMA: vol. 9 →

Primo Mese in Italia I am not sure when my vacationing ended and my residency began… but somewhere between my mother heading back to states, moving out of my hotel and into an apartment and settling into the time change with scheduled walks with the pup, somehow I live here now! In moments it feelsContinue reading TahiraROMA: vol. 4 →

Benita…oh how I love her.  If you are just getting to know me in the last 5 years, you may not have ever known that Benita and I are living in a NEW wine kinda relationship… This love is still honeymoon status! lol…  For context, I was brought back to my earlier years while inContinue reading TahiraROMA: vol. 3 →

A Meeting with Destiny You would be surprised… but against the advice of others, I often talk to strangers! I see unique encounters with new people, as an avenue for the divine to intervene with the mundane. If not for the, otherwise random, introductions with strangers, I wouldn’t have had the invitation to Urumqi, Xinjiang (Northwest China), or a villageContinue reading TahiraROMA: vol. 1 →

Step 1: Leave The House

In all my travels, I don’t think I have ever been this terrified to take this first step… agora phobia all the way… delayed me 2 hours leaving the house… second guessing every move I made… as if I have never done this before… sweating buckets I endured… until I could digest that, in fact,Continue reading Step 1: Leave The House →

Preface: before I left! Well that came quickly! I write to you about 48 hours before I take my next scout trip to Rome, Italy! If you haven’t heard this story, I will get you caught up. But if you have blessed me through a trip season before, you know that heaven is about toContinue reading When in Roma… →

Vision 2019 I always find it to be a refreshing reset... vision season paired with my birthday season. It lends to reflection of all that the year has produced. It tightens the lens for where we are going next. It quickens my equilibrium to find the rhythm of next stride, and awakens my heart to push deeper. 2015 - I was still living in isolation when I found VIVE. When I first heard of vision gala, I didn’t understand why people would want to include me in their vision. I observed from a distance, distinctively deciding not to insert myself prematurely. My greatest regret of that season, was not recognizing that I was in fact chosen to carry a vision that had my name written on it. I am meant to be in this community. I am meant to till the soil and prepare it for harvest. That first vision season I was skeptical, but every season after that I have been expectant. This year is no different. 2016 - Second Vision Season, First Vision Gala. I remember the knots in my chest, praying for the town, that I did not yet know would be our new home. OAKLAND said, “We Out Here” 2017 - I strongly felt an overseas move was near in my future. My heart was troubled, not wanting to leave my home at VIVE. Days before Gala, I said to trusted friends “if not China, then it’s Italy...” How could I have known that God was giving me a heart for this land? 2018 - Watching all that had already occurred, I couldn’t begin to cap my imagination for what was in store... NO ONE thought 5 in 1!!! Some said it couldn’t be done. But we know that’s not the end of the story! 2019 - I know we all are waiting with expectancy for the 2020 vision reveal. When your experiences with God make no sense to others, the only evidence you can base this on, are from the experiences themselves. Vision season is full of evidence of the active hand of God. The sky is the limit? Nope. There are NO limitations in Jesus. “Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly than ALL that we ask or think, according to the power at work within US...” Eph 3:20 #vivevisiongala2019 #tahirathoughts #watchthisspace #catchthevision #ephesians320 #handofgod

nomad. __ When I tell you that I have felt like a woman with no home my entire life, I’ve got witnesses and receipts to prove it. Yes, I’ve been fortunate to have a roof over my head, but even as a young girl questioned if it was the right one. . Yes, I’ve been supernaturally provided for, when all I saw was lack, but still questioned if I was eating another man’s plate. . Yes, I’ve been traveling this world, adventuring through city and village, but questioned if I’d ever be able to sustain this living beyond wandering from place to place. __ I’m not mad. __ But sometimes I wonder... Why don’t I look or feel like the wonderful and beautiful people I love so much? . Why does my heart not settle in one place for very long, before it presses toward another precipice? . Why do I dream in languages and lands that don’t belong to me, and wake up to the same ceiling day after day? . Why am I not “where I’m supposed to be?” Where am I supposed to be? __ home. __ She said, a N O M A D doesn’t find HOME in a location, a N O M A D finds HOME in a P E O P L E. __ //perspective shift// __ Yes, I am a N O M A D Yes, I do B E L O N G Yes, I see with V I S I O N Yes, I will B E C O M E __ ... all that I was created to be.
