Lessons in Faith & Humility: Embrace Vulnerability and Asking for Help

10 minutes

I know I'm not alone in my fear of the unknown. In the middle of 2023, I was on the phone with my mom and was telling her how exhausted I felt. I wasn't tired from lack of sleep. I was 'soul-tired'.

This episode is just a quick behind-the-scenes conversation with what God is teaching me as I lean into God and stop allowing excuses to hold me back. I am doubling down on vulnerability and leaning into the messy process of growth. And, I'm taking you along with me!

In this episode, I talk about:

Staying true to yourself in the pursuit of your goals.

Overcoming personal insecurities and developing your faith

Walking in unwavering courage to confront obstacles with humility.

Mastering the skill of venturing beyond your comfort zone and seeking support.

Believing in the vision and keeping your head focused on Jesus as you walk things out.

Keep your eyes on Jesus. Not the waves, not the wind, not the people that are behind you or watching you, but your eyes straight on Jesus because he's directing your steps. - Melissa Batt Coaching

Authenticity in Weaknesses

There is so much power in allowing others to see our weaknesses. It's time to be authentic and embrace your weaknesses instead of hiding them. People are more inspired by genuine vulnerability than artificial perfection, as it creates a relatable connection. In doing so, we empower others to face their insecurities and pursue their dreams without fear. Melissa Batt opens up about her struggles with seeking approval and perfectionism. From her point of view, it is crucial to be vulnerable and show our weaknesses in front of others, even if they may be uncomfortable. By doing so, she encourages the listeners to let go of their fears and insecurities and trust in God's plan for their lives. This approach of embracing authenticity in our weaknesses can help build courage and resilience in the face of challenges.

Speaking at Church

Melissa Batt spoke at a church prayer meeting and shared about encountering trouble. She gave examples including conflict, anxiety, depression, and other hardships. Believe it or not, this is actually an invitation to spend more time with God through prayer. She challenged the audience to remember that no matter if it is big or small, God is there & cares. Use the hard times to fan the flame for Jesus and be reminded that the obstacles we face are often distractions from the enemy. He would prefer nothing more than for the trouble we face to derail us from our purpose & growing our relationship with God.
