[Ep 48] The Power of Pre-deciding in Difficult Seasons

Pre-deciding is exactly what it sounds like: making a decision before a decision actually has to be made. This eliminates the pressure of having to make a last-minute decision that may not be thought out, and it also helps with decision fatigue, those times when you're making decision after decision after decision and you just don't want to make another decision. And it's incredibly important during difficult seasons to decide some things in advance. So join me for this episode as I share some examples and walk you through four questions to ask as you pre-decide some things this year.

As an introvert, silence is your strength. You cherish quiet moments. Time alone replenishes your soul like nothing else can. But what happens when God goes silent? When you raise your questions of grief and hurt and doubt—and He doesn't answer? Dear one, what if your very quietness has positioned you to experience the presence of God in a totally new way? What if in these seasons of silence, God is actually speaking to you louder than He has ever spoken to you before?
