Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a reminder that we were created to keep moving forward, not backward. In 2 Corinthians 4:16–18, Paul encourages us not to lose heart, even when our outward circumstances feel heavy, because God is renewing us day by day and preparing us for an eternal glory that far outweighs our present troubles. We also dive into Christine Caine’s devotional You’re Not Finished Yet, where she shares the powerful image of Australia’s coat of arms—featuring the emu and the red kangaroo, two creatures designed only to move forward.  If you’ve been feeling stuck, weary, or tempted to look back instead of stepping into what God has next, this episode will encourage you to take heart in Jesus’ words from John 16:33: “In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” Together we’ll reflect on what it means to endure in faith, embrace renewal, and trust that the One who began a good work in us will carry it through to completion.  🙏 Want to take the next step in your walk with God?
