"She knows she's seen by the One who matters so she stops trying to be noticed by others." It's probably a fair estimate that I've said this at every She Rises event, whether a one-day event or the annual two-conference, I've included it in books and blogs I've authored, study groups, and one-on-one sipping coffee with a friend.
Why? Because I so strongly believe it is true! Life and how you lead yourself will make a trajectory type change when you live from a place of being fully seen by the Lord.
Connect with me and my guest, Jen Jones, as we have a conversation about being seen versus being noticed.

This week's episode we're talking about what it means to live a life surrendered to God and His plan for our lives. This is such an honest conversation about how we often feel hesitant in living a surrendered life and yet even in the wrestling it out with Him, He invites us to bring those hard questions to Him.
In a world where many are running hard and fast hustling to see things unfold in their lives, this conversation offers such a refreshing, and timely reminder, of what it looks like to live a life surrendered.

Are you comparing yourself in some way to someone you either see in person or online? In this quick bonus episode, I want to speak words of freedom over you.
Be yourself, everyone else is taken. - Oscar Wilde
There will always be someone who seems prettier than you.
There will always be someone seems more popular than you.
There will always be someone who seems more talented than you.
There will always be someone who seems more educated than you.
There will always be someone who seems thinner than you.
But there will only you. And you are just what the world needs!

I'm so excited to introduce you to my dear friend, Jessica Rothmeyer! In this episode, we talk about people-pleasing; a topic we all have experienced in some way. So often the motive in wanting to please people stems from not fully understanding who we are in Christ.
When we live from a place of knowing who we are in Christ, it allows us to be in healthy relationships with others without seeking from those relationships what we already possess in Christ.

Such an exciting episode! This week I am joined by my husband, Tim. We will celebrate 30 years of marriage this fall. Of those thirty years, I have been in ministry for eighteen and of those eighteen, Tim and I were in ministry together for eight. Those eight years were spent equally divided - four in youth ministry and four in marriage ministry.
While in ministry together, we both were bi-vocational and raising our daughter. We have learned a few things along the way! With that, we thought it would be fun to offer a few tips we've learned in how to steward each of those areas well.

In this final episode of the Don't Waste Your Wait series, let's talk about the fulfillment of those God-given dreams. We plan and prepare, but only God can bring fulfillment! However, that doesn't mean we sit by waiting for something to happen because preparation always proceeds something new!
Give what you have right now, your faith, your time and talents, and watch Him enlarge your capacity!

From a recovering quitter of all things, this is my favorite episode in this series! In the middle of waiting for dreams to unfold and doing your best to keep a faith-filled attitude can be hard in this stage! Endurance, while something necessary for anyone wanting to do more with their lives, can be challenging!
When things aren't happening as quickly as we had hoped, we begin to look outwardly for confirmation that God is at work in our lives. I believe it's this stage the enemy wants us to believe, because we can't find that evidence, we must have heard wrong which so often leads to quitting and walking away from the promises God gave us.
Be encouraged today that God is true to His promises! Don't allow your current season to make you forget what God said!

So often we get anxious in the waiting, feel overlooked by others, and at times, even by God. We may even sense disappointment settle in as we watch God bless and open doors for others that we ourselves have been believing for.
In this episode, I want to encourage you that God knows right where you are! There is purpose in the waiting. There is a work being done in you - preparing you for what He has prepared for you. Let's talk about how to protect that God-given dream lying within you while in a season of waiting.
