She Lives Purposefully

Discontent and Overwhelmed? Do I Actually Trust God? How Eternal Perspective Changes Everything

She Lives Purposefully

Show Notes

This is an episode I got convicted DURING. Sometimes it feels like when it rains it pours. Life can be hard and sometimes it feels like everything goes wrong at once. It can be easy to feel discontent, overwhelmed, maybe even struggling to trust God.

In this honest and vulnerable episode, I’m joined by my husband to talk about some of the things going on in our own lives lately (house issues, car trouble, high-risk pregnancy, etc.) and it’s honestly affected our hearts, attitudes, and trust in God.

To be honest, we even get convicted DURING this conversation.

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, discontent, anxious, or spiritually drained, this conversation will encourage you to step back and see your circumstances through an eternal perspective.

We talk about:

Feeling covetousness and discontentment

Overhelm

Trusting God with everything from small hiccups to tragic suffering

How an eternal perspective shifts EVERYTHING

This is one of those conversations we know we’ll come back to again and again—and we pray it encourages you wherever you are today.
