23 -Your Christian Faith: A Relationship And Foundation For Personal Growth

Join Annaliese and Alan in a down-to-earth conversation about the powerful role Christian faith plays as a foundation and anchor in our everyday lives. Annaliese opens up about her personal journey, navigating the ups and downs with God and life. This episode explores practical ways to integrate faith more naturally in your day as you let it shape your priorities, habits, and goals.

Key Takeaways:

  1. Unpacking Faith in Daily Life: Reflect on what faith truly means for you and notice how it subtly influences your thoughts and actions each day. Your spiritual beliefs have a more significant impact than you might realize.
  2. Inner Stability and Purpose: Personal growth is pretty demanding work that asks you to have a sturdy foundation and a sense of purpose. Annaliese believes that God, in His unconditionally loving and empowering nature, is the compass guiding you from the inside to be your true self.
  3. Practical Truths for Empowerment: Discover the practical and empowering truths rooted in seeing yourself with God's unwavering love. Take a moment to evaluate if your own daily actions align with the importance you want your faith to have.
  4. Renewed Minds and Practical Living: God's promises aren't just lofty ideals—they're meant to be lived out in your day-to-day! Embrace the process of renewing your mind and let God's promises help you think better thoughts and guide your decisions in the nitty-gritty of real life.

Practically Discover Your Own Faith:

  1. Defining Your Faith: Take a moment to articulate what faith means to you and visualize how it can manifest in your daily life.
  2. Discovering Your Purpose: Explore the fact that God designed you for a unique purpose. Your potential is intricately tied to just being more fully your true self.
  3. Engaging with God More Daily: Deepen your relationship by defining who God is to you. Use Bible verses that draw you closer to Him, not ones that push you further away. Let yourself ask Him questions, and even wrestle and struggle with Him as you need to. He invites you to be this honest and close with Him.
  4. Evaluate Your Actions and Choices: If faith is essential to you, take a look at how your daily actions reflect its importance. Are you allowing it to shape your decisions and pace?

Practically Live Out Your Own Faith More:

- Casual Conversations with God:
Drop the weight of expectations that come from other people, the past, and your own self, and practice talking openly and honestly with God throughout your whole day.
- Invite God into Decisions:
Base your choices on a sense of deep peace rather than fearfulness by slowing down in the moment, inviting God to talk to you, and listening for His guidance underneath the choice. Then trust yourself to take action on where you notice the peace coming from.
- Walk Out Bible Verses:
Notice actionable words from Bible verses that are meaningful to you. Imagine how your life would change if you practiced walking out these teachings more in your day.
- Fruits of the Spirit:
(love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control)
Have you noticed the Fruits are mainly feeling and action words? Let these words guide you in creating and receiving more from God in your day-to-day life.
- Tune into God's Presence:
Ask yourself where God is in the present moment. Act on your sense of His guidance and recognize your authority in decision-making.

Listen today to feel yourself get closer to Jesus as you experience growth that goes beyond the surface, guided by the love of a caring God who made you to be YOU.
