Gratefully Hungry – Détails, épisodes et analyse

This episode may seem heavier when you think of the subject or look at the title but honestly, recording it brought me light more than darkness. God is near those who are navigating &/or anticipating loss. 

Joel, the guest on this episode was my grandmothers hospice chaplain. I met him one time before she passed away in January & knew he was someone I wanted to have on here with me one day. My grandmother loved him instantly when she met him. She couldn't wait for me to meet Joel. I can see why after getting to know him more. Enjoy this episode. It's a little heart tugging, a little healing, & more..
Joel quotes this:

― Helen Keller

but those who hope in the Lord (who trust in the lord)
    will renew (find new) their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
    they will run and not grow weary,
    they will walk and not be faint.

🧐 Reflection Questions

1- Where is fear coming from in your own life? What typically allows it in? (Habits, people, poor thoughts)

2- What do you tend to fix your focus on?

3- Fear and faith can't live in the same place, which do you spend more time operating in?

📖 Philippians 4:8-9 NIV
Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. 9. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

🙏Having a relationship with God, through Jesus' sacrifice is much different than just going to church, checking boxes, & calling it Christianity.

• Prayer is our communication line.
• Clear & consistent communication is key in a healthy relationship.
• Talk with God - clearly, honestly, & frequently.

Versions of the Bible app I love to read most:

• 👉Tithing scriptures: Lev 27:30-34, Matt 6:21, Prov 3:9-10, 2 Cor 9:6-7
• 👉Fasting book: "Fasting" by  Jentezen Franklin

🤔Reflection questions: 

• What 1 or 2 things stood out to you most today?
• On a scale of 1 -10 how clearly & frequently do you converse with God?
• What could you do (or not do) to increase that number & enjoy your relationship with him more?

✅Tips to draw closer to him or interrupt a not great pattern:

• Unplug. No phone. No people or other opinions. Get outside if possible.
• Submerge yourself in the word or a sermon
• Move your body 
• Church, small group, or chat with a trusted believer.

From pg 182 of the "Draw the Circle" prayer challenge:

"History belongs to the intercessors"

 More notes from one of my favorite books on this topic:

If you intercede for others, you'd better make sure that others are interceding for you.
Intercession is spiritual warfare. It's not for the faint. By definition, praying hard is hard. There will be times that our heart is breaking because of a prayer burden. No victory has ever been won apart from prayer & praise. 

Prayer is the pen that writes history.
