Unsung Stories

Feeling Safe: Self Reliance vs Trusting God with Terri Thompson


Listen Later

This week we are joined by Terri, mumma of 5 kids (at the moment). She is passionate about foster care and currently is fostering two children at the moment.

In this episode, we consider foster care, however the focus of the conversation leans towards our self reliance - how more often than not, we find it safer to trust ourselves and what we know, rather than trusting in God.

The challenge we consider is what we do when faced to choose our own way or choose God.

Terri encourages us that we can risk more than we think we can - we can choose faithfulness and self sacrifice and God will sustain us and supply all our needs. We consider our need to have an eternal focus and to trust God's promises at every step along the way.
