Ep112: Thriving in Hardship: Surrender vs. Resignation w/Author Aimee Walker

We were built to thrive.  Jesus saw a broken world we were born into, and created a pathway to thriving, and hearing and leaning into his voice is essential to that.  However, this pathway doesn't make us immune to hardships along the way, but it does create a vehicle of overcoming THROUGH it.  My guest Aimee Walker shares her incredibly moving story of how through MULTIPLE difficult situations, the Lord walked with her relentlessly, giving her tools of overcoming, gave her his grace and compassion in her darker moments, and taught her soul how to breathe again.   In this episode we tackle  Surrender Vs. Resignation How to hold strength and hope by knowing your Core Beliefs that are Non-negotiables How even your menial seasons of invisibility are gently and carefully the seasons when God is crafting in you both the skills and the courage for the greater moments he has for you. The super helpful illustration of the Palm Tree and how remaining soft in hardship IS Possible... through surrender.  That God will heal and restore your soul, and bring back the desire to dream over your life again!
