In this episode, I’m taking you back to a moment when God used Proverbs 31 in an unexpected way. Like many of us, I’ve read Proverbs 31 for years as a blueprint for virtuous womanhood — but one day, sitting with verses 1 through 9, I saw something deeper.
King Lemuel’s mother wasn’t just teaching him what kind of woman to look for — she was teaching him how to live righteously, with integrity and self-control. As a mother to a son myself, I felt deeply convicted: Am I becoming the example I’d want my son to follow?
It was in that moment that God revealed the hidden sins in my own heart — not the obvious ones we preach about like fornication, porn, smoking, or cussing — but the quiet, respectable sins we ignore: pride, envy, gossip, laziness, gluttony, unforgiveness.
These are the sins that won’t get you side-eyed at church, but they rot the heart from the inside out. Working on these hidden sins takes real faith, patience, and daily surrender — because they don’t always produce quick, visible fruit.
Join me as I open up about how God exposed these places in my heart, how I’m learning to confess them, and why holiness means letting the Spirit transform even what no one else sees.
