DAY 31: WHY CAN’T I STOP STRIVING?

Trying harder can look faithful.But sometimes it’s just fear with religious language.Genesis 30 exposes what happens when wounded people try to force what only God can give. Rachel wants a child. Leah wants to be loved. Both are striving. Both are hurting. And God is still working.If you’re exhausted from comparison, waiting, envy, or trying to make life happen by force, this episode is for you.Question for your heart:Where are you forcing what God is asking you to trust Him with?Watch on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/live/vPeGj4dQ3RY?si=qDIJdVwF0TulXb71More resources:https://www.truewordfaithforlife.com#BibleInAYear#Genesis30#GodsTimingMooseWorks Bible Re-BinderYour Bible carries prayers, tears, notes, promises, and memories.
