In this episode, I get real raw and vulnerable about my own struggle with desires that don’t always align with God’s will — and the faith it takes to lay them down.
Inspired by James 1:14–17, we’ll explore how our unsurrendered desires often open the door to temptation and sin, not because God or the devil forces our hand, but because we let our own longings lead us astray.
Like Eve, who gazed at what looked good instead of gazing at the One who is good, we too can be deceived when we fix our eyes on things that corrupt our hearts. I share why it’s so important to trade our corrupt desires for God’s good and perfect ones, trusting Him to purify what we want so our lives can bear fruit that leads to life, not death.
May this episode encourage you to ask: Where or what am I gazing at? What desires need to be surrendered? And remind you — surrender is never loss with God. It’s an invitation to receive what is truly pure, good, and right in His eyes.
Kindly share with someone who you think needs to hear this message so they can be blessed too. ☺️💐
