Seeking God's Grace

The word VOCATION is understood and misunderstood by many. In this episode we talk about life vocation, specific vocations of our life, finding the vocation within chosen way of living and God's example of finding and pursuing what is "our best". 

How do do you experience the presence of God in your life? Do you feel God's real presence? We all struggle with these questions! In this episode, I attempt to give a few suggestions on learning from our human relationships how to experience and deepen our relationship with God. 

In this Episode we talk about what does it mean to trust God and why it is challenging at times. We learn the Hebrew words from the Bible describing trust: חסה - chasah, בטח - betach, יחלל - yachal and their meaning. Finally, we try to name the reasons why it is not always easy to trust God. 

In this episode I share my understanding what does it mean to "let go" of things, people and events in our life. How active and intentional it needs to be. I share my own understanding of what it means to "let God" be in charge of our hearts and minds. I finish with a personal story how hard it sometimes is to pray to God with "boundless confidence" trusting Him at all times. 

In this Episode I am reflecting on the gift of life: how challenging and surprising it is and how it leads me to being grateful.

We ponder about the gifts and fruits of the Spirit we need the most.  

This episode builds our talk about passion as we talk about expectations and disappointments. Many of us are disappointed in ourselves and/ or others. What we experience as human- we project on God. Can we disappoint God? Let's try to find an answer together.

In this episode I  invite you to think about what does the Bible say about Easter and what does it mean for us. This is not a historical reconstruction of the events of Jesus’s resurrection.
