Journal Your Feelings | Manage Your Emotions, Reduce Stress, Self-Care for HSPs, Journaling Tips

In this heartfelt episode, I address a common struggle - how to trust God when life isn't going as planned. Inspired by a listener's story about dealing with injury and delayed healing, I explore the challenging disconnect between our expectations and God's promises.
Drawing from personal experience and biblical examples like Job and David, I share practical ways to maintain faith during seasons of uncertainty, pain, and what feels like divine silence.
I offer encouragement for those wrestling with disappointment in God, explaining why hardships aren't always prevented but can become opportunities for growth. If you're feeling confused or frustrated with God's timing or apparent lack of response to your prayers, this episode will help you find peace in the waiting.
