In this quick but powerful episode, we’re talking about the difference between control and surrender and why the key to real strength is running to the Source: our Heavenly Father.

Too often, we drain ourselves expecting others to pour into us the way we pour into them. But people will fail you not because they’re bad, but because they’re human. The only consistent, unshakable source of strength and renewal is God alone.

I’ll share:

Why surrendering control isn’t giving up it’s trusting God.

The battery analogy: If you feel disconnected, check your source!

How to shift from self-reliance to God-reliance.

Bible Verse: Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6

Bible Verse: Thus says the Lord: Cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his strength, Whose heart departs from the Lord. Jeremiah 17:5

If you’ve been feeling drained, this episode is your reminder to let go and trust Jesus.

Aren’t you grateful for Him?!
