Prices seem to be climbing faster than my monthly bills, and it’s tough not to feel that knot forming in my stomach when I think about it all. But here’s what I’m learning: there’s a powerful voice of faith that can speak louder than all those anxious whispers.
In this episode, I dive into the truth that God’s provision is always enough—even in seasons that don’t look or feel abundant. For me, it’s not just about spiritual vibes; it’s about practical trust. I share some of my own experiences, the moments when God showed up in the leanest times, often in ways I didn’t expect.
I talk about how I’m facing my fears with scripture, creating a needs-first spending plan, and leaning into daily gratitude to keep my heart anchored. It’s a simple game plan that helps me walk into the new year with confidence instead of anxiety.
So whether you’re stressing over the small stuff or the big stuff, come hang out with me in this episode. I’ve got some strategies that lighten the load and strengthen your faith as we navigate the uncertainties ahead—together.
Takeaways:
- Feeling nervous about the upcoming year is totally normal, especially with rising prices and unstable income.
- Trusting God isn't just a spiritual thing; it's about practical steps we can take daily.
- Fear and worry have been around since forever, but God's faithfulness never changes, no matter what.
- Keeping a provision journal helps you see God's past faithfulness, which builds trust for the future.
- Gratitude is a powerful tool that can shift your focus from fear to appreciation of what you have.
- Planning your needs first can reduce anxiety and help you focus on what really matters.
