Jessica shared how she felt peace about marrying Steve and she
clung to that guidance she had felt previously as she dealt with
challenges of Steve’s pornography addiction, infidelity and coming
out as gay. She said, “That really took me through a lot of our
marriage of knowing that I was in the right place. I was doing the
right thing, no matter what happened in my marriage, I was put here
for a reason.” When have you felt totally certain that God was
guiding you? Record the experiences that come to your mind so
you’ll have a place to come back to as a reminder of what you
already know. Things may not work out exactly how you think they
should, but as Jessica shared, you can trust God and rely on the
guidance He has given you.
Jessica said when she was in the middle of divorcing Steve she
asked herself, “What is my fear right now? What is my fear that I’m
feeling? And how can I change the story around it and, and have
more faith?” What are you feeling fear about in your life? How can
you change your own journey and move from fear to faith?
Jessica’s main message is to be bold about following the
promptings you feel. She said one of the thoughts she has had
recently is this, “God, isn’t looking for perfect people to do his
work because none of us are. He’s looking for people who are
willing to take action when he needs it.” What is God asking you to
take action on in your life? How can you be bold and act on
what He is prompting you to do?
