Episode 165: Are You Ready to Break Free from Stress and Striving?

 

Are You Ready to Break Free from Stress and Striving?

So many of us these days are worn out and stressed out because we are striving to obtain the life God has already promised to give us. But peace, joy, belonging, freedom, and impact aren’t earned by striving; they are received by resting. It sounds counterintuitive in today’s world—because it is. Work is good, but laboring solely in our own strength and wisdom to try to make good decisions, to get ahead, to love others, or just to live everyday life, is a path that will eventually leave us feeling overwhelmed, defeated, and exhausted. But there is good news: You can enjoy rest and move forward in your purpose, passion, and destiny at the same time. This episode will empower you to rest in God’s promises and in his strength working through you so that you can fulfill your purpose while living a life full of peace and joy. 

 

Enter into the Place of Peace

Resting is not always so easy to do. We all have life experiences, opinions, interests, and concerns that make us want to be in control of everything, thinking that we know best. But the Word of God tells us what is actually best—and that is to think and act from the place of rest that he provides. In fact, the only thing God ever asks us to labor for is his rest (Hebrews 4:11). From that place of peace, fulfillment, contentment, power, ability, and joy found in Jesus Christ, everything in life changes. This episode will equip you to:

  • Understand your true value and where it comes from
  • Remember that your identity is not based on what you do
  • Discover what true rest looks like
  • Enter into the God’s Promised Land of peace to live the life you’re meant for
