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.

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?”
