Would you still listen to this episode if it had nothing to do with you… but everything to do with God? We live in a world that constantly asks, "What can God do for me?" But what if faith wasn’t about what we get, but about who He is? What if we stopped making our relationship with God a transaction and started making it a posture, one of surrender, trust, and devotion? This episode isn’t about us. It’s about Him. I want to challenge you today: What would your life look like if it was truly less of you and more of God? If you pursued Him, not for blessings, but because He is worthy? If you found contentment in Him alone, even if He never gave you another thing?Because the truth is, we’ve already been given everything through Jesus. "My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever." Psalm 73:26 instagram.com/growingthrough.pod
