What expectations do you have when you pray?


Is your heart watchful - anticipating His reply because you know He will come through - or do you just keep praying and hoping He will come through, but not really expecting much?


Sadly, I had placed my expectations in the wrong place and wondered why it felt like I lived in a perpetual Groundhog's Day.


It felt like no one could tell I'd been doing so much, yet I'd been doing everything, So I asked God why.


The answer? 


I’d been doing everything!


Then, God asked me what I expected from Him.


What did I expect from God?


My prayers have changed -


GOD, I expect more. I expect YOU!


That is when the unexpected answers started coming!


One of the things that God did make clear was that I surrender this podcast for now.


Today is June 20th. I have been telling you that I will be taking a sabbatical, and in this episode, I will share why.


The best thing about podcasts is that they don’t disappear! 

The 135 episodes I have already done are still there for you to enjoy and share.


During this time, it would be lovely to get to know you! 


You can stay in touch with me by joining my email, where we can get to know each other better.


I will still be writing, continuing to blog, sharing devotionals, Spiritual Game Planning for upcoming events or situations, and updating on the direction God takes this ministry.  


 I’d love to know  - 


Was there a favorite episode? 

Is there specific way I can pray for you?

Whether you are listening for the first time or you've been a listener for a while,  you may or may not know that on June 20th, 2023, I paused the
podcast. Since then, we lost our daughter. 
I recently released a new episode discussing how I processed our year of firsts by creating Grief Conversation Cards. You can learn more in episode 236 and at cherifletcher.com. Thank you, Cheri
