How Do You Know God’s Will Without Overthinking Every Decision?

from Guided: Hearing God's Voice in the Life You Actually Have · host Brenda Bertrand

I used to believe God's will was outside of me, waiting to be discovered. Like a cosmic Easter egg hunt where getting it wrong meant missing my destiny. That God exhausted me. So let me tell you everything I no longer believe: that God is testing me, that my desires are suspect, that there's only one right path, that I can fall out of God's will is like falling out of bed. The truth is that some of us have carried a theology that has kept us small and afraid, anxious, and stuck. And it's time to trade that God for the companion God...the one who's WITH you, FOR you, co-creating with you. This episode is for anyone who's tired of fear-driven discernment and ready to live and come alive - with God.Subscribe free to my newsletter: ⁠⁠http://eepurl.com/hiV8TH⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.brendabertrand.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠
