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.
