Season 2 - Episode 9 - Finding Gratitude During a Sacrificial Season

This week I speak with Mary. Mary is a wife, a mom, a grandmother, but there was a time when she wrote books and spoke on stages sharing her deep struggles with Anorexia and her victory through Christ to become a personal trainer who experienced the gift to not only keep her body healthy but to help others to do the same. As life went on she had to work a regular job at Wawa to help support her family. Stuck in what she calls a “sacrificial season” for much longer than she imagined, she has laid down her dreams in order to follow God’s leading even though she doesn’t understand why he has her where he does. Can you relate? Have you ever been doing exactly what you felt you were on this earth to do and then suddenly everything changed? Are you waiting for another turn to step into what you have been dreaming of? But what if God were using Mary to do something unimaginably more than what she could do writing books and speaking at conferences? What if the scope of her presence in the everyday moments had a greater impact on the world for God’s kingdom? What if God placed a shining light in the darkness? What if he does that with us? Will we shine for him even when we struggle with the darkness around us? You won’t want to miss this vulnerable interview. You will see your story in Mary’s story and you will be encouraged!www.facebook.com/motheri-in-love-devotional-series-womens-conferences-141879122511339/*Theme Music “Blessed Time” by Ketsa
