We’re chatting with Rebekah Lyons on the podcast today! Rebekah is the mom of 4 kids ranging in age from 20 down to 8. She is both an adoptive and special needs mom. Rebekah wants MORE vitality for herself and moms. When was the last time you heard that word? Vitality means the state of being strong and active with energy. So often we live in a state of exhaustion, not vitality. Rebekah encourages us to shift our perspective towards vitality with proactive rhythms and disciplines. We also discuss suffering and how God anoints our pain to produce fruit. Part of suffering is accepting what is; a wayward child, a broken marriage, a crisis of health. Invite God into that pain and put him center stage. It is in that moment of weakness and despair that we find a sweet communion with the one who holds us close.

Mentions:

• Rebekah’s Rules of Resilience: Rest, Stewarding our bodies well, Seeking community, Work/Purpose

Truth:

• Romans 5:3-4, “Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; 4 perseverance, character; and character, hope.”
• Romans 8:17, “Now if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory.”
