Episode 90: When a Door Closes

Recently, I was at a retreat, and Mike Donehey was leading worship.There was a moment I captured on video. I did not even know why I recorded it at the time. I did not know it would ever be used in a podcast. But looking back, it became a reminder I needed.We do not write our own story. God does.When a door closes, it can feel like everything stops. A relationship ends. A plan falls apart. A future you thought was certain is suddenly gone.We have all experienced that moment where life is heading one direction and then suddenly it is not.So what do you do when that happens?In this episode, we talk about what it looks like to walk through closed doors with faith. Instead of asking why did this happen, we shift the question to something deeper.Who is God shaping me into through thisWho is God for me in thisWho has He placed around me to walk with me through itWe also talk about processing what you are feeling, re centering your life on what actually matters, and taking your next step forward even when it is unclear.This episode also includes a real and honest conversation about the end of a relationship and what it looks like to trust God when something you cared about deeply comes to an end.Because closed doors are not just interruptions.They are invitations to trust.God is still writing your story. And what He is writing is better than anything you could have planned on your own.
