150: The Freedom in Surrender
Main Points From the Show
We tend to put things in a box. We miss out on many possibilities when we look for things to be the same. We begin to doubt our abilities and get out of alignment with God’s will for us.
When we do this, we search for scripture that agrees with what we think and pick and choose what we want from the Gospels instead of reading them in their entirety.
There was always action required when healing took place in scripture. We, too, need to take action.
Everyone’s journey is different. When we are in Scripture, prayer, and are listening to the Holy Spirit, we will know what the Word says and what our next step is. We do not need to fear man.
