192 | Having Faith to Trust God with the Outcome; Mental Illness Does Not Win

Send us Fan MailYou can pray, plan, and do everything “right” and still have no idea how the story will turn out even though you have FAITH. That unknown can trigger anxiety, deepen depression, and make you feel stuck at the starting line. I talk through what it really looks like to move forward anyway, not with blind optimism, but with steady faith and one next step. You can overcome stress by building your FAITH and really choosing to manage your mental illness.We lean on Scripture like Proverbs 3:5-6 and Psalm 37:4-5 to draw a clear line between simply following your heart and surrendering your heart to God so He can direct your path. When visibility is low, the goal is not to map the whole journey. The goal is to stay connected to God, release the need to control the outcome, and keep putting one foot in front of the other, even if the step is tiny.I also share three practical takeaways for anyone navigating a stormy season or managing depression: do not make a permanent decision in a temporary storm, stay the course even when you cannot see progress, and remember that storms subside but what God builds in you remains. We talk about why feelings are not always facts, why rest is different from quitting, and how small wins build momentum when your strength feels limited.If you need encouragement that meets you in the middle, press play, take notes, and choose your next step today.
