Obedience, Discernment and the Weight of Separation

Send us Fan MailIn this solo episode, I open up about one of the hardest lessons I’ve had to learn — obedience when it hurts. 💔God will often ask us to walk away from people, places, and habits that no longer align with our purpose. But what happens when your heart still loves what your spirit has outgrown?In this episode, I share my personal journey of battling disobedience — how I ignored God’s instructions because I wanted to see the good in people, made excuses for behavior I knew was wrong, and ran myself dry trying to save people God told me to separate from.Through tears, conviction, and growth, I’ve learned that:✨ Obedience can break you before it blesses you.✨ Discernment is protection, not punishment.✨ Separation isn’t rejection — it’s redirection.We’ll also talk about the hurricane in Jamaica and how you can help. My family and I are collecting essential items — food, clothing, toiletries, and sanitary products — to send back home.
