Who doesn’t love rest? Give us a beach, good company, a nap, a good book and leave us there for ever; am I right? Oh, what a life we’d all live in a world of nothing but rest. Or would we? Are we created for a life of naps, the beach, and relaxation full time? How fulfilling would that actually be? Press play, let’s talk about it.

While we’re in the thick of pain, it feels impossible to think there can be any good that can come from it. But thank goodness that we serve a God that works ALL things for the good of those who love Him. In this episode, I pray you’re encouraged from pain to peace; knowing your pain does not go unseen by our Heavenly Father, who has a glorious plan for your life that will indeed unfold, as we choose to surrender to Him daily.

As we live in a world that screams about how you’re only as worthy as your outer appearance says you are, I pray that this episode inspires you to know the truth.

Carrying the unfading inner beauty.

In this episode, I will ask you a question that I believe will empower you to challenge yourself in becoming who God has made you to be. You’ll be empowered with the 6 points I drop that you cause you to chew on this week, as you think about the future you, and what it will take to become her or him. I pray that you take at least one of these points, apply them to your life, and see watch the growth to a better you begin.

I like to compare waiting seasons to winter seasons. Winter isn’t the kind of glamour that has sunshine and beach waves like summer is, however, my hope is that after this episode, you look at winter seasons as having their own special glamour. Sure, as you look around, trees may look dead, but dare not chop them down. Because though they look dead, it doesn’t mean that they aren’t preparing to spring something new. In this episode, you’ll learn to wait well, when winter comes. And take joy in preparing for spring.

Have you ever committed idolatry, unintentionally? Making someone or something the main squeeze of your life, while placing our first true love, Jesus, as secondary? I have. And I’m so thankful for the Holy Spirit’s gentle nudges of love, reminding me that He truly is ENOUGH. And how apart from Him, I can do nothing. I pray that this episode is a refresher for your soul in regards to who takes presidency in your life.

This episode was a true delight to record. My younger sister courageously shares encouragement to the broken, abused, hurting, and or lost.

I pray you’re blessed with her story, encouragement, and the anointing on her life.
