Hey friends! Welcome to Season 4 of God Is Within Her!!
On today's episode, we are going to reflect on our hunger for God and His Word. It is a little too easy to become dependent on someone feeding you His word but yet we never develop the hunger to fed ourselves. Yet the Bible says that we should be hungry and thirsty for righteousness. We should have the desire to seek it out on our own. Does this mean we can't supplement with sermons, podcasts, or seek the advice of someone who is more mature in their faith? Absolutely not! But we do need to develop the desire to seek it out on our own, when no one is there to teach us. Because the best teacher we can have is the Holy Spirit Himself. If you have Him, you have everything you need.

Are You Hungry And Thirsty For God’s Word?

Welcome to the God Is Within Her Podcast. (formerly known as The Beautifully Enough Podcast!)  This is a space for you, as an every day Christian woman, to GROW! Grow in your faith, grow a closer relationship with God, and grow your confidence in Christ! Every week, we will dive into the word of God so we fill our minds with God’s truths, to live, not as the world tells us to live, but to live boldly as Godly women who fear the Lord. DON’T PANIC RETURNING LISTENERS!! This is still the same weekly devotional podcast you fell in love with over the past two years. But God has put it on my heart to pivot and run with a new title that truly embodies the kingdom purpose God has placed on my heart: not to focus on our lack or feelings of inadequacies but to mentor and guide Christian women to realize we can grow a fierce and confident faith in Christ! Titus 2:3-7 instructs the female elders to become “teachers of beautiful things”. The message translation tells women to be “models of goodness...

Hey friends! Hope you had an amazing Easter and Happy Resurrection Day!! Today, I wanted to adlib and give some of my unedited thoughts on the cross and why it's the single most important thing about our faith. More specifically, have you ever thought more deeply about the phrase "Jesus died on the cross for our sins"? Like what does that even mean?! Let's chat about it today!

Why Is Jesus Dying On The Cross Important?

*Correction: There were 6 deaths in the tragedy in Nashville, not 9 like stated on the episode.
 
Hey friends. This week has been a dark one with the tragedy in Nashville. It has brought the question "why God?" And honestly, I can't really answer that for you. But, I can tell you what I have learned...and that is this world is temporary. And it's time we start blaming evil and darkness for the evil and darkness in the world. God has a plan. We may not understand it. It sometimes is an unimaginably painful plan. But, this world is temporary and it is not our forever home. And friendly reminder, evil might look like it wins here on earth, but they absolutely lose in the very end!

When We Don’t Understand God’s Ways

Hey friends! I am feeling better and back with another episode for you! On today's episode, we are going to dive into what mercy means. And my goal today is to help you grow your perspective on mercy and grace. How God's mercy is big enough to cover any size of sin, not just yours. I see it so many times where "Christians" live thinking their sin isn't as bad or wicked as someone else's sin to the point where it can make unbelievers feel that God's mercy isn't big enough for their sin. That someone they are too far gone and have done too many bad things to be saved. But that is totally not true! So I want to dive into mercy today, and help us remember that God's mercy isn't just for a select few with "minor sins", but it's for ALL who call on the name of Jesus.

Hey friends! Today, we are in Mark 14, when Jesus goes to the garden of Gethsemane. This is where He is full of sorrow and deep distress, to the point of crying tears of blood. What could have caused Jesus to feel such deep sorrow?
Perhaps you are feeling deep sorrow, too. This episode of a reminder of two things:
1) Jesus went through every joy and pain and sorrow that you will go through in life. He was fully God but, also, fully human. He felt joy and pain. And this passage is a reminder of that. Our lives won't be pain free because Jesus' life wasn't pain free.
2) We put a lot of focus on the temporary. But I want to remind you that this world and this body is temporary. The pain and sorrow you are going through, even if it feels like it has lasted an eternity, is, in fact, temporary. It will eventually end. And, as believers, we need to remember that our pain here is valid, but we have a promise of something so much more beautiful that this world: heaven!! And that is having an eternal perspective.

Hey friends! On today's episode, we are in Mark 9:14-29. In this passage, we find a father who is seeking healing for his son, who is demon possessed. Spoiled Alert: Jesus does, in fact, heal the boy. But that's not the point I want to make today. Today, I want to focus on the father and some simple words he says..."help me overcome my unbelief."
Have you ever struggled with unbelief? Don't lie. lol Let's be real. We all, at some point, can say we have struggled with unbelief. Just like this father. So let's learn what to do in our moments of unbelief and how God is the strength we need when we are weak.
