A verse tucked away in the book of Ephesians is the bedrock of this episode. A powerful verse that I'e read many times over that I'm sure you've also read is unpacked by the Holy Spirit in a way I've not understood so personally before. With this, I hope you receive it with fresh eyes.

The devil uses the same tactics on all of us to manipulate us. There is nothing new that he does under the sun. Our weapon? The Word of our Lord God. Knowing it, understanding it, so we can use it as our defence against his manipulation. He knows the Word too, as seen in his testing of our Lord Jesus in the wilderness, but when we know it and arm ourselves with the knowledge of it, we can disarm and defeat him as our Lord Jesus did.

Prayer is an intimate conversation with God that I sometimes overthink because I believe there is an art to praying. In this episode I share my awkward thoughts.

One thing about me is that when I face a challenge, my knee-jerk reaction is to talk to myself or call a friend. I do this not because I seek a solution, rather to just vent about my frustration with the challenge. I've now been challenged to do things differently.

When it comes to a relationship with yourself, it's become important to save time to pursue yourself, your desires, and your needs. It's safe to describe this effort as self-love. I chat with Andile Mbete about what self-love is for him and tap into his thoughts about love languages and how he applies those to how he treats himself.

Saying the words 'I love you' is something I don't find easy to say. When I do say it, I have a huge lump in my throat afterward because I begin to question whether I'm sure of what I've just said and can live up to the expectations that (in my mind) come with those three words.

Am I the only one who's like this?

There are many difficult phases in relationships and one that we're never prepared for is when a relationship becomes unhealthy. This isn't always because there's conflict, co-dependency, or control that takes place. A relationship can be unhealthy when it has no purpose in your life's journey. Do you know what I'm talking about? Listen in.

Choosing to start anew not just because it's a new year, but because we deserve peace and real joy is the best gift we can give ourselves. The first step is to forgive ourselves for our mistakes. Add forgiveness to your self-care affirmations.
