    Waiting To Exhale

    📖 Download the FREE But First, She Prayed Prayer Guide: bio.site/Erickatrenee Episode 6 | Waiting to ExhaleWhat happens when God answers the prayer... But now you're responsible for carrying it? Somewhere along the way, I convinced myself that once I reached certain milestones, I'd finally be able to exhale. The husband. The children. The business. The answered prayers. The life I spent years asking God for. But lately, I've been realizing something... Every answered prayer comes with another opportunity to trust God. In this week's conversation, we're talking about the pressure of stewardship, the guilt that can come with resting, and why so many of us are trying to carry tomorrow before we've even finished today. This isn't a sermon. It's just a real conversation between women who are learning how to trust God one day at a time. So pull up a seat. Let's process life together. Scripture: Matthew 6:11 "Give us this day our daily bread." ✨ Let's keep the conversation going. What has been on your plate lately? Leave a comment below. Read someone else's story.

In this episode of But First, She Prayed, we're having an honest conversation about comparison, validation, performance, and the pressure to keep up. Maybe you're not behind. Maybe you've just been measuring your life against someone else's timeline. I share my personal journey—from chasing attention and applause in the world to realizing I was still performing after giving my life to Christ. The audience changed, but my heart still wanted validation. If you've ever...  Felt like you're behind in life...  Compared your journey to someone else's...  Wondered why you're always in a rush...  Felt pressure to prove yourself...  Struggled with needing validation...  Questioned your calling because of numbers, followers, or people's opinions... This conversation is for you. This isn't about social
