Show Notes

Sometimes we get very transactional with God: “‘If I do it right, then I will be rewarded with this.’ But does God work that way? No.”
When we get into tidal-wave situations, no matter what they are, God helps us and comforts us.
When you feel overwhelmed or let down, try this: Stop, look back at the things God has done for you, recount them all, write them down. Sit with God and reflect on how faithful He has been to you.
Find a tangible reminder to go and pray and express your trust in God to provide. He is faithful.
“When we have no control over anything, He has control.”
Spiritual amnesia: we forget that God is faithful.
“Remove and move any distractions that would distract me from Him.”
“Instead of worrying, I was anticipating . . . okay God, where are you going to land me?”

Join hosts Eryn Eddy Adkins, Elisa Morgan, and Vivian Mabuni as they look to Scripture to see how God sees us. Open your Bibles and get ready for this powerful God Hears Her conversation.
