How to overcome any obstacle with God

“We have a hoarding situation that we’d like your help with please” This was the cry for help from a client of our cleaning company – and they weren’t exaggerating. We walked into the 750sq ft. unit and were greeted with shin-high piles of trash, clothing and RATS! To say I was a little overwhelmed by the scope of work would be an understatement. So that’s when I turned to the only one Who knows how to handle every situation we will ever face. “J e s u s, H e l p!” Then, as only He can, He gave ...

5 Clues To Your Gifting

I was sitting on my couch watching the guy on TV confess to something that I felt too. I’d been asking myself if I was even a ‘good Christian’ because the images I saw didn’t move me at all. But if I really cared (like a good Christian should), then why didn’t they? The story he shared next brought so much clarity to me that it changed the way I saw myself and others - forever. God confirmed that He had made me for certain things that were simply different to what I was seeing – and it didn’t ma...

Grace for your Race

I was trying so hard to get something done and I just had no energy left. In my frustration I said to God, “Lord, I don’t have what it takes to get this done!” I thought I’d failed and I felt so bad… But that’s when He reminded me of the beauty of 2 Corinthians 12:9 where Paul is BOASTING in his weakness. I know right?! It’s not a thing we typically hear each other say. “Oh, I’m really weak in that area” (um…and boasting about it?) That day God gave me a phrase that reminds me of the astounding ...

You Are Safe With God

Did you know that you can’t make God mad enough to leave you? And how tightly He’s got you, doesn’t depend on how good you’ve been, how much you’ve prayed or how tightly you’re holding on. In Hebrews 13:5, God promises that He will never desert you, never give up on you and never relax His hold on you. Now THAT is good news worth shouting about! In today’s episode we’ll look at a super practical way to remember how intentionally God is FOR YOU and looking to be good to you. 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐚 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐥 ...

Set Yourself Up For Success

Wake up, shower, get dressed, eat breakfast on the run, get to work/school just in the nick of time… 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐨𝐰 – 𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐭 Sometimes we can get so stuck on the hamster wheel of life that we go barreling into the day with no intentionality. So I took some time one day and asked Jesus, “Lord, what treasures have You stored up for us today?” I could feel the delight of His heart as He shared with me the things that He was inviting me into.

Give And It Will Be Given Back

Are you someone who loves to be generous, but that old saying, 'you’re being generous to a fault’ - keeps playing in your head? It can be scary to be generous sometimes because we don’t know if WE will have enough, if we give you a lot, if you’ll just start taking advantage of me because you know that I’m generous, or if my kind nature will cause me to be seen as a ‘doormat’. Well the good news is that in God’s economy - Giving Is Powerful, and in today’s episode you will see why! Take hold of t...

More Than You Can Ever Imagine

“Keep the faith” “Believe even when you don’t see” “Don’t be moved” We’ve all heard this said when we’re believing God for something that’s bigger than we can do on our own. But, let’s face it, it can be super hard to keep on believing when you just don’t see anything happening! When the pain in your body doesn’t go away or your bank balance keeps shrinking and the bills are growing or the one you love keeps on doing things that just aren’t good for them. In today’s episode we’re going to see a ...

4 Keys For A Successful Quiet Time

The alarm clock has loudly woken you from your sleep and is insisting on you getting up to have quiet time with the Lord. Then all the excuses start running through your head “I didn’t sleep well last night so I’ll just hit snooze once.” “It’s too cold to get out from beneath the covers.” “I have a super busy day and I just need more sleep.” You finally get yourself out of bed to spend time with the Lord, and then you find your thoughts wandering all over the place. The things on your calendar t...

Make Your Emotions Work For You

“I hate this…” “I love that…” “I feel so…” Our worlds are full of emotion – good, bad or ugly. Sometimes you feel amazing, and sometimes you feel crummy. But the worst of it is when your emotions get so intense that you can’t seem to get out of the loop that they create in your head (and then overflow into the circumstances around you) In today’s episode there is a GOLD NUGGET from Jesus as we look at the way His emotions didn’t dictate to Him, they obeyed Him! (mic drop moment right there!!!) I...
