Episode 26: There's a whole other way to live on the "other side of the street", and I can't wait to tell you more about it. While everyone else is churning out the work harder, strive more, be better and earn your pay content, I'm here to tell you it's time to abide and thrive.
On one side, it's all up to you, and most likely you'll never quite feel like you're enough. On the other side, there is room to be, space to relax, and freedom to live authentically. What's the difference? I think you'll have to listen to find out.
I'm a goal-setter, a driven dreamer, and love learning. Certainly, there is nothing wrong with planning, putting in effort, and caring about excellence. However, all these good things can become problematic and draining when we are over-focused on "making ourselves the best we can be."
When we focus on fixing ourselves, we can easily fall into a trap of self-reliance and self-condemnation. We may start to believe that our own efforts and self-improvement are what makes us acceptable to God. This can lead to feelings of guilt, shame, and frustration when we inevitably fall short of our own expectations.
Additionally, focusing on fixing ourselves can distract us from the truth of our new identity in Christ. We are already forgiven, righteous, and complete in Him.
I really can't wait for you to hear this message, as it may be exactly what you need to set yourself up for more freedom, purpose, and motivation in 2024!
