"Sometimes the only pain that we have is when we thought God was gonna do it this way and it didn't happen this way, but that was us placing expectations on God." "God will give you the strength you need to say yes in whatever he's calling you to do. He will give you the perseverance, his hand, his mercy, his grace, and his love." "Legs to your legacy. That is a quote straight outta John C. Maxwell's mouth." "Take a dive. Go swimming with God. Let him love on you. Let him rejuvenate your soul. Trust him." "Our heart behind this podcast is reaching those souls, the souls that maybe are afraid to step out into the water." "God doesn't make mistakes." 🛑 Reflect + Apply: Questions to Ask Yourself What is the "water" God is calling you to step out into right now? What fears are keeping you on the shore? Are you trying to live "halfway" for God, just dipping a toe in? What would it look like to dive in completely? Where in your life have you placed your own expectations on God's plan? How can you surrender those expectations to Him? Think about a time God "stretched" you. How did that experience shape your faith and obedience? How can you practice radical generosity this week? What gift, big or small, can you give to bless someone else? In what area of your life do you need to trust that God will lead you beside "still waters" and give you rest? 📖 Scripture Focus: Psalm 23:2: "He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters." This episode also alludes to Psalm 139:13-14, reminding us that God "knitted you together in your mother’s womb" and "made you perfect." 🙌 Join the Movement If you are doubting the special call God has for you, if you're afraid to step out in faith, or if you just need a reminder of God's all-consuming love, this episode is your encouragement to take the plunge! 💻 Visit crazyunbelievablefaith.com to sign up for behind-the-scenes content, community updates, and exclusive access to Kersha’s upcoming book. 📩 Got questions or want to connect?
