Trusting God episodes

  • Insufficiency

    "I'm not enough."


    Many of us have that fear. The beauty of living in the Lord's path is that we don't have to be because HE IS.

    The little boy gave 5 loaves and 2 fish - not nearly enough to feed a crowd - but look what Jesus did with it.

    God doesn't need us to be enough. He only needs us to be obedient!

  • Abandonment

    Wow, how writing this chapter hit me! I found myself recognizing all the ways I didn't trust God to be there for me because of things in my past.


    And watching Joseph remain faithful through YEARS that must've felt like abandonment was a beautiful reminder that God knows what He's doing!

    Joseph in sold and betrayed and imprisoned wasn't a mistake...God was putting him in the position to accomplish a great work and save many lives!

    If you feel abandoned in this life, don't lose heart! God can use us anywhere we are if we let Him!

  • Pleasure

    Like the prodigal son, we often allow short-term pleasures to displace our long-term rewards. If only we could understand the beauty of God's inheritance for us! “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined the things that God has prepared for those who love him.” (I Corinthians 2:9)


    Whatever we grasp and fight for here in this life will fade away, but God's eternal promises for us will go on forever!

  • Doubt

    We often doubt because we've stopped looking at God and started looking at the circumstances around us. Like Peter walking on the water, if we keep our eyes on Jesus instead of looking at the waves, we will have a far better chance of living with a consistent faith!


    But even when we doubt, we can take comfort in the verse: “I believe; help my unbelief!” (Mark 9:24) We can take even our doubt to the Lord and trust that He will help us with it!

  • Self-sufficiency

    This is one of my big ones. I don't like relying on other people...or on God. Moses probably believed he'd free the Israelites using his position and influence, but God's way was so much more powerful.


    Even if we lose the abilities we think we need, God can still work in amazing ways as long as we are obedient! Through our weakness, His strength is made perfect.

  • Fear

    "Perfect love casts out fear." 1 John 4:18


    So many of us live in fear of all the dangers and evils around us. But we don't have to!

    In this episode, we follow David as he triumphs over fear to defeat Goliath even though he seems to be severely outmatched. God is never outmatched!

  • Expectations

    I find that my expectations often get in the way of my contentment. I thought I would have this or that by now, and my trust in God's promise begins to waver. Like Abraham and Sarah, I've tried to get what I want my own way, and it never works out well.


    Our expectations can be good, but they can also become idols we put in front of what the Lord is doing in our lives!

  • Finding God's Promise

    "Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." - Matthew 11:28


    I started this book because I wanted to learn how to live every day in that verse.

    I believe God's promises are true, so why do I continue living stressed out and overwhelmed?
