S3:E32 - You can grieve while you grow, but you can't go back

In this episode of the Armed and Anointed podcast, Ashley discusses the topic of grieving while growing spiritually without going back to previous ways of living. She shared her personal experiences of feeling called to change directions in her business and life, including the spiritual warfare and grief that accompanied these changes. Ashley emphasized that following God's calling requires moving by faith in what is unseen rather than relying on what is visible and logical to others. She referenced Hebrews 11:8 about Abraham's faith journey and explained that calling is just the first step in a process that includes faith, obedience, character building, and eventually fruit. Ashley encouraged listeners to identify what needs to be packed or left behind when feeling called to a new direction, to recognize that grief is natural during this transition, and to resist looking back or returning to previous ways despite the discomfort. She stressed that God provides guidance and holds us by the hand through the process, and that the promised land or calling is worth the temporary wilderness journey.CONNECT WITH ME...→ Instagram - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@armedandanointed⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠→ Partner with me in Arbonne - Legacy Collective x Arbonne - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Legacy Collective→ Looking for faith based life and business coaching?
