“Change Your Face”: Recognizing God’s Gentle Prompts and Practicing Self-Control

Have you ever felt a quiet nudge to stop, listen, or respond differently—and wondered if it was God? In this episode of Spoonfuls of Honey, Hala Sahlman reflects on three powerful “change your face” moments where the Holy Spirit redirected her from giving advice to offering presence, encouragement, and love.Through personal stories and gentle spiritual insight, Hala shares how God’s voice often comes as an inner knowing rather than an audible sound—and how learning to recognize it can transform our relationships, rhythms, and self-control. This episode is a beautiful starting point for anyone seeking to hear God’s voice more clearly and follow His lead in everyday moments.A note from Hala:This year I’m offering a 6-month 1:1 Shepherding relationship for those who want to deepen their relationship with God and grow in confidence hearing His voice. We meet weekly during the spring and fall, with a natural summer pause built in. I only walk with four people at a time, and when spots are full, I close enrollment. If you feel a gentle nudge—not pressure—reach out below. Praying for you and cheering you on!HalaEmail Hala : [email protected] more about her coaching & offeringsCome to a retreatGet the Conversations with God Devotional
