Seeking Happy, Finding Joy - Growth Mindset, Christian Women, Biblical Strategies, Self Confidence

Hi friend,

We’ve all made mistakes at some point, right?

You’ve looked back and wish you’d had chosen differently? “If I had been a better parent; hadn’t taken that job; married that person; listened to my mother; said that horrible thing … “

We have all done or said things we regret. But all too often that regret morphs into Guilt.

What happens when you can’t move past the guilt?

When it just keeps coming back to the forefront of your mind in a way that’s keeping you stuck?

Friend – that unhealthy place is NOT what Jesus wants for you!

God doesn’t want regret or guilt to rob us of our joy. Joy in Him, Joy of our family, the Joy of living!

Because guilt is NOT an emotion from Him.

Your past is nothing more than a place you’ve been

It does not define who you are or what God wants to do in your future!

Today we’re going talk about where guilt comes from; why you need to give it to God and, 7 ways you can do just that.

Genesis 3:10 – first guilt

Psalm 51:3-4 – David’s guilt

Matthew 26:75 – Peter’s guilt

John 10:10 – the enemy’s plan

Ephesians 2:13 – how God sees you

Romans 8:1 – our redemption

Ephesians 1:7 – our redemption

Psalm 139:23-24 – ask Him

1 John 1:9  - confess

Isaiah 1:18 – repent

Phil 3:13-14 – press forward

Romans 8:28 – give thanks

Ephesians 2:10 – good works

Romans 10:17 – His Word

Jeremiah 29:11 – your future

You Are:

John 15:16 - Chosen

Psalm 103:12 - Forgiven

Eph 2:10 - Special

Daniel 12:3 - Lovely

Eccel 3:11 - Beautiful

Gen 1:31 - Created

Psalm 139:13 - Unique

Psalm 18:35 - Strong

1 Cor 6:20 – Precious

Hi Friend,

But how about when you’re navigating difficult life storms … especially the ones that come at us full force; the ones that tear down everything we believed would always be there or rip away life as we know it. How easy is it then?

If you’ve ever experienced a nasty life storm, you may have asked yourself:

- Is there more after this than just surviving?

- Will I always feel broken?

- Why would God allow me to go through this?!

Storms that bring devastation and upheaval, are painful. I speak from personal experience!

But also I’ve discovered if we let them, those same storms can also become the source of new life we may never have seen otherwise.

In today’s episode using biblical principles, we are going to explore how life’s storms can actually be a catalyst to new growth and opportunities in spite of the hard.

Scripture:

1 Thess 5:18

Romans 8:28

Phil 4:7

Matt 6:19-21

Psalms 121:1-2

2 Cor 12:9

2 Corinthians 5:7

Isaiah 55:8-9

Are you frustrated because you’re not living the life you know you were meant for, because you let fear rule instead?

Are you FULLY using your gifts and talents to create a life you love, or is fear making you play small?

It’s really, really important to understand what fear is, and how to recognize when you’re in that space, because if you don’t, fear can keep you from living a full, satisfying and joyful life!!!!

Fear is a tool the enemy uses against us to make us miserable and keep us from chasing our dreams.

Fear is actually unbelief – which is the very opposite of Faith

God desires us to walk by Faith, but the enemy wants us to walk in fear

I know firsthand how crippling fear of the unknown can be!!

How it can keep you from living an abundant life filled with peace and joy

Once I chose faith over fear, my life began to change

In today’s episode, we are going to uncover how to recognize when you’re operating from a place of fear plus explore six different ways to overcome and take action so you can become the confident, courageous and resilient person God designed you to be!

I pray this blesses you!

Hey friend,

Do you feel like there is more to life … and question why others seem to get all the good stuff instead of you?

Do you feel uncomfortable when you’re given an unexpected gift and instead of gracefully accepting, perhaps you negotiate with that person so you feel better?

Are you asking now, what could these two different questions possibly have in common regarding living your best life?

We love to give … yet most of us find it very difficult to gracefully receive gifts from others

But what if I told you it’s the “other half” of the equation that opens the path to experiencing the gifts God has for YOU … building a strong foundation for living with peace and great joy?

How do you become a gracious receiver of gifts that are already ours to have?

Let’s dig in to today’s episode to understand the strongholds that keep us from receiving the goodness, the abundance, and the great gifts that are yours and how to develop the grace of receiving well.

I pray this blesses you!

Show Notes

Hey friend,

We all want to be happy, right?

But have you discovered when you do find happiness it’s fleeting and when the moment has passed, you are left feeling the same as before?

How is Joy different than Happiness?

How can Joy be long-lasting; provide the peace and comfort that Happiness can’t?

In today’s episode, we will explore these questions and more as we discover the abundant power that’s inside of you, waiting to be called on to rise up and partner with you so that you can experience the Joy that is possible even when you’re the midst of all the junk, hard times, or disappointment.

I pray this blesses you!

If you’re ready to discover how you can become the strong, confident, resilient woman God created you to be; unafraid to chase your dreams or color outside the lines, you are in the right place!

I’m so glad you’re here and pray this blesses you.

I look forward to walking this journey with you!
