#16 With Peace, We are Strong in Self-Control

from The Pace of Peace · host Michelle Brumgard

  In today’s episode, I’m getting real about something I know so many of us struggle with: self-control, fasting, and actually doing the thing God asked us to do. I share about how I absolutely struggled to follow the prompt to submit my flesh in fasting. It is in the midst of our weakness that the Lord meets us.  If you’ve ever felt frustrated because you “should be further along” or you keep failing in the same area, you’re in good company. This episode is a reminder that our strength never comes from us anyway. It’s Jesus. Every single time. And even when we feel weak or inconsistent, He is steady, strong, and faithful. We talk through what it looks like to have peace rooted in Christ instead of trying to muscle our way through self-control. You’ll hear how His peace is what sustains and strengthens us to walk in obedience—without shame, striving, or pretending. Key takeaway:With Peace (Christ Himself), we are strong in self-control. ✨ If you haven’t already, pre-order my book The Pace of Peace and grab your free bonuses!Use this link here to decide where you would like to purchase it and fill out the form for your bonus downloads!
