Episode notes
Trust The Potter's Timing
- God is the potter and controls the pace of your change, so you are not a finished product.
- Accept and enjoy who you are now while trusting God to mold you into your purpose.
Give Yourself Grace While Growing
- Do not live under constant pressure to change everything by your own effort; give yourself grace until God provides strength.
- Stay pliable and willing to change, but rest after doing your best and trust God for the rest.
Refocus From Flaws To Your Author
- Focusing on your flaws distracts you from your purpose and magnifies the enemy's lies.
- Looking to Jesus as the author and finisher refocuses you on potential rather than shortcomings.
