About this episode
To lean on God is to be interdependent with Him. It’s knowing that we cannot depend on ourselves alone and that we are also a part of bringing heaven to earth, co-laboring with Christ. However, we struggle to lean on God because our beliefs about God have hindered us from trusting God. Not to mention, God isn’t someone who is right in front of us. How can someone care who isn’t physically here? In this episode, I'm sharing 3 Bible life lessons from Psalms that help us lean on God. Learning to lean on Him is a process. Trusting God takes being intentional about pursuing His heart and love for us. 

Rooting for you,
