Description
Imagine being able to evangelize through your daily actions, without even needing to mention Jesus by name. That's the profound lesson I've learned from my experience working as a server. By simply demonstrating humility and treating people with kindness, we can reflect the love of God and bring others closer to Him. This episode explores the concept of 'enlarging the tent' - letting our actions naturally reflect God who lives within us.Have you ever tried to focus on a single object while everything around it blurs into the background? That’s how we should view our relationship with God. Drawing from the story of Jesus walking on water and Peter losing sight of Him, we underline the importance of keeping Jesus at the forefront. Our attention can easily be diverted by distractions and stumbling blocks, and what we focus on can ultimately control our lives. But by maintaining our focus on Jesus, we can preserve balance in our lives.Finally, we delve deep into the process of seeking God with all our hearts, and how our perspective can influence our view of Him. Like adjusting an iPhone's portrait mode to focus on one thing and make the background blur, we emphasize on unwavering devotion to God, eliminating distractions. We discuss the woman at the well, whose perspective radically shifted upon realizing who she was speaking to, and how we can also have that transformation. In our overstimulated lives, keeping our focus on God can be challenging, but we wrap up with practical ways to stay engaged with Him.Check out more of Lauren Daigle's music and if she's coming to a city near you by visiting laurendaigle.com!
