God Hears Her Podcast

EP. 66: Dreams and Fears (with Jade Gustafson)


Listen Later

When we look back on our lives, do we see the times that our dreams evolved into something we never thought they would be? What are the dreams that never worked out? What are the dreams that changed when we learned more about what we loved? On this episode of God Hears Her, Elisa and Eryn talk to a young woman named Jade Gustafson about the dreams and fears that she has in her own life. Jade talks about how her dreams are in the process of changing and how surrendering her fears to God has led to some unexpected life changes.

 

About Our Guest:

Jade Gustafson is currently a senior at Grand Valley State University studying English and writing. She is a blog post writer and small group leader for GVSU’s Delight Ministries. While she is figuring out her future she continues to work at Our Daily Bread Ministries in the podcast department.

 

Notes and Quotes: 

  • “We can have so many standards and goals set, but it does not matter when it comes to the purpose that God has for your life.”
  • “If things don’t work out the way that I want them to, it’s not a reason to be anxious or upset because God has a better plan.” 
  • “I am not to find my self-worth and my identity in these narratives or dreams or stories that we tell ourselves, but in the truth of who God is and what He wants to do in me and through me.”
  • “All of a sudden I wasn’t unique. All of a sudden my dream wasn’t special.”
  • “Your life is your life, and the things that you do are what God wants you to do (most of the time).”
  • “Even doing something small is a reason to be celebrated.” 
  • “That’s when we know He sees us in those little godly moments, and He uses community to do that too. That’s when He uses people that push us to do things we wouldn’t normally do. He uses people to see us, to show us that He sees us.”
  • “We need to end something in order to begin something.”
