Merry Christmas!! Today, I talk about choosing to walk in the light rather than darkness during times of trial.

Key Points from this Episode:

  • Angels are helping us in our times of trial even if we don’t notice them.
  • Our thought patterns are like waking through tall grass. Our typical patterns are well-worn paths and are easy to walk through. It takes effort to try a new path, but you can do it!
  • Read the questions to ask God. Open the scriptures and read a few verses. Then review and ponder the questions and see where the Spirit guides your thoughts.
  • Hone in on what is in your circle of influence.
  • Accept what phase of the Surviving to Thriving Framework you are in (Surviving, Re-Entry, Normalizing, Exploring, or Thriving). Own it and don’t try to keep a foot in the door in phases you aren’t really in right now!
  • Oftentimes when our circumstances get bigger than ourselves, contentment can be the first thing to go. Peace can go out the door right with it.
  • Accept the circumstances for what they are and remember they are temporary. It will help you find peace and contentment where you are.
  • I can find peace and contentment right now. I can feel satisfaction and successes with what I am doing right now. I can feel gratitude and joy right now. Even when things are so so so hard. And that absolutely comes from being taught how to walk in the light.
  • We have so much help.  We have so much love. We have so much support from God and from Jesus Christ and so many others.
  • It takes work to choose to keep fighting to stay in your circle of influences, but you can do it!

Patreon is the place where we can come together as mothers and intentionally cultivate growth together. Each month you can gain access to printable worksheets that go along with topics in the podcast to help us slow down and make lasting change – not just be inspired for a few days and then move on. These worksheets are what I’m personally working on and talking about with my closest friends – and I want YOU to join us!

Cultivate your growth intentionally with us through two worksheets a month, a online community, and a monthly group video call to share our “big wins” and things we are still working on.
