from Beyond Belief · host Hardus Pretorius
As a new year begins, many of us feel the pressure to turn the page fast—to set goals, make promises, and take control of the story ahead. But what if the most faithful way to begin a new year isn’t by grabbing the pen… but by letting it go?In this short reflective New Year episode of Beyond Belief, we explore a powerful and timely truth:God is still writing your story. Stop trying to steal the pen.Through thoughtful storytelling, gentle humor, and Scripture, this episode invites you to pause at the threshold of a new year and consider a different posture—one rooted in trust rather than control. Inspired by Philippians 1:6 and Isaiah 55, this message reframes waiting, uncertainty, and unfinished chapters as sacred spaces where God is still at work.If you’re entering this year feeling behind, uncertain, or pressured to have everything figured out, this episode offers a quieter, deeper invitation: to trust the Author, even when the next chapter hasn’t been revealed yet.Perfect for the start of the year, this message is for anyone navigating transition, longing for clarity, or learning to surrender timelines and outcomes to God.🎧 Listen, reflect, and begin the year grounded in grace—not striving.🔗 Listen & Connect🌐 Podcast Website: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2561036🎧 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5UYxxzqTBEjnjZdMP1ijBC🍎 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/beyond-belief/id1857192043📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61585831259171Send us Fan MailSupport the show
