God's Will VS My Will | Lilies Among Thorns

Season 1 · Episode 1

Thursday, July 3, 2025 • Duration 36:11

In this episode, we talk about what it truly means to surrender to God’s will when it doesn’t align with our own plans. Obedience isn’t easy when your desires feel so strong, but trusting God’s will over your own leads to peace, freedom, and deeper faith. We explore obedience in God’s will versus our own desires, how to surrender when God says no, and trusting God’s timing and plan for your life. We also discuss letting go of control, embracing spiritual humility, discernment, and seeking authentic spiritual direction for clarity. This episode touches on why birth control and cultural lies disconnect us from God’s design and how to find your true identity, purpose, and peace in Him. We also encourage you to seek authentic spiritual direction from Priests.

If you’re struggling to trust God’s will in your dating life, marriage, career, or daily choices, this conversation will encourage you to let go of control and surrender completely to Him.Subscribe for more Catholic and Christian content on faith, femininity, and spiritual growth.

From Culture Catholics to Practicing Catholics | Lilies Among Thorns

Season 1 · Episode 3

Thursday, June 19, 2025 • Duration 01:01:21

In this powerful episode of Lilies Among Thorns, Franccesca Sevilla opens up about her journey from being a Culture Catholic to rediscovering the beauty of the traditional Catholic faith. Raised in a lukewarm environment, she thought checking boxes was enough—Mass on Sundays, Catholic in name, but distant from the heart of Christ. Until everything changed.

Hear how God pursued her through the chaos of modern life, how the Latin Mass, Eucharistic Adoration, and a deep hunger for truth led her back home. Franccesca shares the raw truth of walking away from worldly comfort, healing from past wounds, and embracing a faith that’s not just cultural—but convicting, countercultural, and rooted in sacrifice.If you’ve ever wrestled with your identity as a Catholic woman, felt stuck in spiritual lukewarmness, or wanted more than surface-level faith—this episode is for you.

God Sees You in the Waiting | Lilies Among Thorns

Season 1 · Episode 2

Wednesday, June 4, 2025 • Duration 01:08:24

In this episode of Lilies Among Thorns, we talk honestly about what it’s like to wait—without the filter. We share the quiet insecurities that rise when you feel hidden… the ache of wondering if God’s forgotten you… the doubt that creeps in when His timing doesn’t match your hope. And then there’s the comparison— Not just of who’s “moving forward,” but of beauty, worth, love, calling, purpose. When it seems like everyone else is seen, chosen, flourishing—and you’re still in the silence. This isn’t a pep talk. Not every episode ends on a high note. Sometimes, God invites us to stay in the ache. There are seasons of joy, but also seasons of sorrow—and even that is part of our purification. If you’re in a waiting season where everything feels uncertain… if comparison is stealing your peace… if you’re tired of pretending you’re okay—this episode is for you. We don’t have all the answers. We’re not here to fix it. We’re just here to be with you in it.

Keep us in your prayers!Instagram: @liliesamongthornspod@juliannarvivas@juliezenethNote : Julie: I truly understand i have my own short comings as a friend, the story i shared about my friendship break up with "c" was to emphisize that friendship break ups are real even in the Catholic space, and how i realized not only do we lack being their for our friends in their sorrows (Everyone talks about friends leaving in their sorrow) But at my most joyful moment when i was going to meet Emmanuel, she could not embrace that joy with me & i realized how a friend should be there in every "mystery" of your life, i needed her in a joyful moment.
