Why is it so much easier to believe God loves us in our heads than it is to feel it in our hearts?
In todayâs episode of Followed by Mercy, Austin Gardner continues his conversation with missionary and SoulCare coach Mike Pennington. Together, they dive deep into the "blockages" that keep us from resting in our identity as Godâs beloved.
If youâve ever felt like your spiritual life is just a "check-box" of performance, or if you struggle with a voice in your head telling you that youâre a mistake, this episode is for you.
In this episode, we discuss the 4 major enemies of belovedness:
- Self-Rejection: Breaking the habit of negative self-talk.
- Performance: Why the "exhausted life" is NOT the abundant life.
- Perfectionism: The lie that you have to "fix yourself" before God can use you.
- Shame: Moving from "I did something wrong" to "I am loved anyway."
Mike also shares the life-changing advice from Dallas Willard: "You must ruthlessly eliminate hurry from your life."
Challenge for you today:
Try a "40-day fast" from self-rejection. Stop the negative self-talk and start listening for the voice of the Father saying, "Where are you? I miss you."
Resources Mentioned:
đ John 17:23, Isaiah 43, Romans 5:6-8
