49. What Do You Want?: Trusting That What You Want Matters to God
So many women, especially women of faith, have been taught to downplay or distrust their desires. We’ve been praised for sacrifice and conditioned to believe that wanting something for ourselves is selfish, prideful, or even unspiritual. But what if your desires aren’t distractions… what if they’re divine invitations?
In this episode, Jeannette challenges the common narrative that “wanting” and “faithfulness” are at odds. She explores why answering the question “What do you want?” might be one of the most sacred things you can do and how Jesus Himself asked people that same question. If you’ve been serving everyone else, losing touch with your own heart, or hiding behind “I just want what God wants,” this conversation is for you.
It’s time to trust that your desires matter and that God isn’t threatened by them.
