Loving When It’s Hard | John 3:16 with Lucy Holmes

Ash is joined by Lucy Holmes to unpack Proverbs 3:5-6: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” Lucy opens up about the tension between wanting control and learning to release her plans to God—especially when life takes unexpected turns, from health diagnoses to career challenges. She shares how her journey of “falling apart” has shifted over the years, from despair to choosing to trust that God’s plans are better, even when they don’t make sense. Together, Ash and Lucy reflect on how lamenting, questioning, and wrestling with God can actually deepen our faith and lead us to a more authentic relationship with Him. This episode is a reminder that while life may not go to our plan, God’s grace, presence, and promises never fail.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
