S5 EP1 | What To Do When the New Year Starts With Discouragement & Disappointment
It’s the first episode of Season 5!!!! Thanks for being here!
This is not the typical podcast episode you’ll find this time of year. Instead of talking about vision, goals and setting intentions for the year, Carla is sharing the very real story of how her new year has started - filled with disappointment and discouragement.
When the year ahead looks like it is filled with struggle and trials, how do you move forward in faith? Carla shares what she is preaching to herself these days, and hopes it will be an encouragement to your heart.
The Role of Discouragement
Carla points back to the Fall, and how sin was rooted in disbelief, the lie that God withholds from us.
When you find yourself not being able to see the forest for the trees or unable to see how God is present in your life, the enemy uses discouragement to push you further away from Him.
The Truth About Trials
We were never promised we wouldn’t have hard times. We were promised we would never be alone.
God is still working, even if you can’t see it. Will you choose to push into God despite your circumstances? Will you trust Him, even if you can’t see through the thick of it?
You don’t have to be alone, God is with you and working on your behalf.
Affirming Truth - God is sovereign and working on my behalf
