Ephesians 4 space for fitness industry professionals
Today's conversation is one part renewal, one part coaching, and one part spiritual awakening. This discussion with birthing doula specialist Tamara Wrenn. God owns the birthing process and redemption story, and the way He speaks to us in this 'gestation' is part of His original plan. From moments of lamenting to moments of celebration and every 'moment' of God knitting us together in our own mother's womb, His plan has always been to include us. You, Eternal One, are my sustenance and my life-giving cup. In that cup, You hold my future and my eternal riches. My home is surrounded in beauty; You have gifted me with abundance and a rich legacy. I will bless the Eternal, whose wise teaching orchestrates my days and centers my mind at night. He is ever present with me; at all times He goes before me.I will not live in fear or abandon my calling because He stands at my right hand. This is a good life—my heart is glad, my soul is full of joy, and my body is at rest. Who could want for more? You will not abandon me to experience death and the grave or leave me to rot alone. Instead, You direct me on the path that leads to a beautiful life. As I walk with You, the pleasures are never-ending, and I know true joy and contentment.
