In this vulnerable solo episode, I'm getting real about what it means to truly trust when life feels fragile and you're hanging on by a thread. We've all heard the beautiful spiritual advice to "trust God's plan," but what does that actually look like when you're anxiously checking your phone for that email, dreading an upcoming confrontation, or second-guessing a major decision you've made? I'm opening up about my own journey with trust—including the news I'm currently waiting on and how differently I'm handling uncertainty now compared to years ago. Because here's the truth: I used to pray like I was God's project manager, presenting Him with detailed plans and validating why my preferred outcome just made the most sense. Sound familiar? I'll walk you through: ✅ Why anxiety is simply your cue to pray—not a sign you're broken or faithless ✅ The difference between "occupying" your mind with the future versus "preoccupying" it with fear disguised as responsibility ✅ How to recognize when you're the fly banging against the window or the cat clinging to the branch—and what to do instead ✅ Why "do your best and let God take care of the rest" is more than just a catchy phrase ✅ The shift from telling God what's best for you to asking for courage to accept whatever He provides ✅ How pride—not love—is often driving that "responsible" behavior of checking the locks three times or rehearsing conversations endlessly ✅ Why suffering isn't abandonment but God's way of purifying our prideful little selves Whether you're a business owner struggling with control issues, a parent trying to let your adult children find their own way, or anyone wrestling with the uncertainty that comes with being human, this episode is for you. Because trust isn't passive—it's the most active decision you can make to release control while still showing up with love and courage. 🔔 Remember: Trust at its core is faith in motion. Faith says "I believe You exist." Trust says "I believe You are working for my good"—even in all the messy middle between uncertainty and peace.
