Finding The Love of God When Life Makes You Forget

Finding The Love of God When Life Makes You Forget

Do you struggle with the windmill of your emotions, allowing your feelings to BOSS you around?
 
Do you bargain with “biblical truths”, because you have bought into the enemy’s lies?
 
When you run into trials, do you develop spiritual amnesia, and forget about God’s love?
 
If you answered yes to any of these questions, you are not alone. 
 
Whenever we face trials in our family, our finances, our health, or our friendships, we have a tendency to see the pain as an indicator that God’s love has reached it’s final point…
 
But,  friends, this is so untrue!
 
God’s love is permanent! 
 
His love constantly pursues you, and will never quit— no matter the trials you face.
 

In this podcast, Chrystal, and I talk about how to remain cognitive of Gods never ending love.  We talk about ways to separate the facts of God’s love from the fictitious parts  of our emotions.  We talk about what it means to be truthful about our feelings, so we won’t become trapped in our hardships of LIFE.

The good news is, God isn’t afraid of how we feel, he just wants us to formulate our thoughts in the right direction, so we can GROW WELL in our LIFE! 

We may not always be able to make sense of every situation, but we can search God’s word, and it will stabilize our heart and our mind. 

In this chat Chrystal, shines a light towards God’s truths.

While we know that LIFE has it pitfalls of despair, Chrystal guides us to a gateway of God’s continuous faithfulness. 

We don’t have to accept our fleeting feelings— We can be assured by God’s everlasting, endless love.
