Have you ever felt like everything feels hard and nothing feels fun?
If so, you're not alone, mama.
In this unscripted episode of the Faith-Fueled Mompreneur Podcast, I'm reflecting on my journey through the Breathe Bible study by Priscilla Shirer, all about making room for Sabbath.
This honest conversation will help you see that Sabbath isn't about following rules, it's about creating space to enjoy God.
In this episode, you'll learn:
- Indicators you've reached "enough": exhaustion, no joy, just going through the motions
- The 3 main principles: Resist the urge to continue, Remember what you used to be, Recall what God has accomplished
- Slavery mindset vs. freedom mindset (and why we keep choosing slavery)
- My struggle with Christmas spending and choosing contentment over comparison
- Why the study never told me "what to do" on Sabbath (and why that's the point)
- My Sabbath plan moving forward: Gratitude, remembering His faithfulness, worship
- Why overloading your schedule is what we do when we forget who God is
- Key verse: Matthew 11:28-30
