To truly surrender spiritually is to release your need to control outcomes, timelines, and even the way you think God should work, while continuing to trust, obey, and follow Him. In this episode, I’Wanna discusses why it’s important to surrender everything to God.

Often, when we’ve been hurt, overlooked, betrayed, or misunderstood, something within us longs for balance or repayment.

In this episode, I’Wanna discusses the importance of moving forward even if you’re not sure of where you’re headed.

Has God ever asked you to do something, but you didn’t feel qualified for what He called you to do? ‘Qualified’ doesn’t always mean ready-made; sometimes it means ready to be shaped. In this episode, I’Wanna shares how your qualifications aren’t always connected to skill, but to your willingness to obey the voice of God for the place He is qualifying you for.

Sometimes you can see the road ahead clearly, but judging it solely by what it looks like isn’t always the full picture. What we see is not all that it seems to be.

Often, our need to stay in situations goes beyond what we can see with the naked eye. Walking away from what no longer serves you requires mourning what you thought would last. Without knowing how the body and heart will respond, it can feel easier to endure familiar pain or avoid ruffling feathers out of fear that others may not agree. In this episode, I’Wanna discusses how leaving when God says...

Sometimes life happens in ways that leave you unsure of your next step. You feel caught in between do you keep holding on, or do you let go?

How do you handle discomfort? Do you freeze when life gets uncomfortable? Do you pull back when God is actually pushing you forward?

Listen in as I’Wanna shares a few scriptures that she speak over her life.
