266 || How a Dream Surrendered Can Open Your Eyes to a New Direction || Emily Karc

Send us Fan Mail Find show notes here.  How do you discern God’s will for your life and then surrender it back to Him? Emily Karc has a passion to minister to the hearts of hurting women. Originally, her vision was to become a writer and a speaker, maybe even the next Lysa Terkurst. But God was writing a different story for Emily, and that’s what today’s episode is all about! Emily reached out to me in the fall about being a guest on the podcast. That timing didn’t work for me, so I told her we could circle back in January to discuss her dream. In that short time God expanded her vision and her heart to serve women who are victims of sex trafficking—something that wasn’t even on her radar just a few months prior. We’ll talk about what that shift has been like for her and how her experience might shed some light for other dreamers. In addition, you’ll learn:   How surrendering our desires gives space for God to reveal even more of His heart for us and our dreams, What God has to teach us in our striving and how we can release the outcomes to Him, and  The difference between creating with God rather than for God.  Looking for some quick ideas to help jump start momentum for your dream?
