less of me elodie christina

some would say church has no use for them - and i was one of them. being raised in church can either make you a lover of church or a hater of it. and maybe hate was a strong word but i definitely had strong feelings about it. even as a christian those feelings didn't immediately go away but in this episode i delve into my feelings and how i challenged myself to get out of my comfort zone and find a church community where i truly feel at home.

controversial title i know. but He does. 

i recently bought a new macbook air... scary. i didn't want to spend that level of money, i was tight fisted, holding on to my money. but then i realised: it's not my money. it's God's.

i'm a frugal person and my first thoughts when spending money on anything are:
is it necessary?does it harm my saving plans?(and the worst one) do i deserve it?but if i truly sat and got in my word I would discover one thing: God is a God of abundance and He delights in blessing His WORTHY children. 

but i thought i was a sinner not worthy of anything? if you look at yourself in the lens of the enemy, you will see that, but if you look at yourself in the lens of Christ, you'll see the opposite. it's time to reframe your mind and let God show you how valuable you are and how much you deserve things that bring you value.

busyness: probably one of the hardest things to navigate as an adult... especially as an adult in the 21st century. not only are we busy navigating our day-to-day lives, but we're also being drained by the busyness of dreaming and planning. but what does God think? does He care? how does He want us to manage our time?

girl. i have been gone for TOO long. God has been convicting me on a lot and i promise this episode will explain. but also, happy new year! today i'm talking all about why we must commit our plans to God for this year to be truly prosperous — surrendering our ideas and leaning on God's eternal plan.

“you are what you listen to” is a phrase my mum would drill into me as a child. 

did it truly understand what it meant? no. 

do i understand it now as i reflect on the things i consumed and how they impacted me, both mentally & spiritually? yes. 

but it’s a road that i don’t ever think i’ll get to the end of. we have to convict ourselves constantly about our mental diet and whether it’s glorifying to God. 

in this episode, we delve into what things we need to be mindful of, such as TV, social media, influencers, politics, and music, as well as the things i personally have been convicted on.

every single one of us struggles with words. whether that's:
words of negativitywords of gossipwords of vulgaritywords of insultswe all come out with things that do not reflect God. but the strange thing is, do we take as much note of them as we would our outward sins?

the Bible tells us "the tongue is a world of unrighteousness" with the capability of causing mass destruction. do we ever think about how that destruction is not just outward but inward too?

continuing in the 'guard your heart' series, i delve into how words not only come from the heart but can further poison it and take us away from a relationship with God.
