Surrendering is a tough concept. Only with God is it a safe bet because He is good and His intentions toward are always for our best. The flip side of surrender is trust. Giving God what we treasure is trusting God with the vulnerability of our hearts. His best for us is often seen in the tears of letting go of those things and people who mean the most to us. He knows you. He will never give you less than His best.Daylight Meditations is a daily podcast from CFO North America.

As 2025 comes to a close, I'm not winding down - I'm winding up. In this episode I share why this has been the year I've felt deeply gratified and truly rich inside myself, and why I refuse to end the year in disappointment, resignation, or “next year will be better” energy. I also announce The Golden Mile 2025 → 2026 Immersion:  a special 2 month 1:1 immersion that can only be purchased in December. This immersion is designed to walk you through the final stretch of 2025 and across the threshold into 2026 in miracle frequency, deep satisfaction, and anchored leadership. Inside the episode, I speak from my own embodiment about: The creative potency of December & January and why I choose to end the year feeling profoundly gratified, not regretful The role of pressure and tension in the creative cycle and how holding it (without collapsing into fear) births new timelines Three doorways of The Golden Mile Immersion: The Miracle Breakthrough Doorway - for those who haven't yet experienced the miracle they've been walking toward The Wisdom & Leadership Harvest Doorway - for those who know their leadership has a “use by” date in its current form and are ready to bring the wealth of their wisdom into the world in new ways The Spirit Embodied Identity Doorway – for those who know they are here to anoint the world with love and live as a pure channel of their spirit Why some miracles don't look like what our human wanted, including the story of my son's passing and the awakening that followed If you feel the potency of this season and you know you're capable of so much more – not because you're “not enough”, but because of the enormity of your heart, your wisdom and your devotion to love – the Golden Mile may be for you.

Today on the No Regrets Podcast, host Albo Esilaba is joined by Chris Brown, speaker, leader, and Senior Pastor and Teaching Pastor at North Coast Church. Chris shares how his gift for storytelling—once something he lacked confidence in—became one of the most important tools in his ministry and leadership. Chris opens up about the freedom that comes from being fully yourself in leadership. If God has called you, you already have what it takes. Albo and Chris also discuss the importance of churches working together rather than competing, and what true surrender looks like for men and leaders today. They dive into the challenge of being disliked as a leader. Chris talks honestly about becoming a lightning rod in ministry, carrying others' frustrations, and navigating anger directed at you—while remembering that every one of us is broken and in need of grace. Finally, Chris shares his desire to finish strong by empowering the leaders around him. Together, they explore what it means to fade out with strength, pass the baton well, and ensure ministry continues with health and momentum for the next season and the next generation.

What if surrender isn't something you do at all? In this episode, Thom reframes surrender and “letting go” through the Vedic lens, not as effort, but as the spontaneous movement of the mind toward greater charm.With vivid metaphors from Guru Deva, monkeys, and even jelly beans, Thom reveals how true surrender happens naturally when the mind is free of stress and guided by charm.Listen as Thom explains how Vedic Meditation trains us to release unnecessary tenacity and experience surrender as a state of freedom, not struggle.Episode Highlights[00:45] Can You Surrender the Surrendering?[03:33] Pre-approving Movement of the Mind[07:06] Effortless Movement Towards Charm[09:38] Vedic Meditation: The Training Ground for the Removal of Unnecessary Tenacity[12:46] Q - What's the relationship between retrospective surrender and letting go?[12:56] Monkeys That Don't Let Go[15:34] Don't be Like the Monkeys[17:43] The Capacity to See the Future in the Making[22:06] Close Your Eyes and Stay AwakeUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/

This sermon explores the origins and significance of baptism and communion, tracing them back to their roots in the Exodus story. It explains that these sacraments are not random rituals but divine institutions commanded by Jesus, prefigured in the Old Testament, and practiced by the church for thousands of years.Scripture ReferencesMatthew 28:18-20: The Great Commission to baptize.Luke 22:7-20: The Last Supper, instituting communion.1 Corinthians 11:23-26: Paul's instructions on the Lord's Supper.Exodus 12:1-28: The Passover, the origin of communion.Exodus 12:29-51 & 14:1-31: The Exodus and crossing of the Red Sea, the origin of baptism.John 1:29: John the Baptist identifies Jesus as the "Lamb of God."1 Peter 1:18-19: Redeemed by the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish.Key PointsCommunion: The Passover Fulfilled To understand the Last Supper, we must understand the First Supper (Passover). In Exodus 12, God provided a substitute (a lamb) to save the Israelites from judgment. This lamb had to be:Pure: Without defect.Personal: Kept in the home for four days.Killed: A true sacrifice.Applied: Blood on the doorposts (faith in action).Consumed: Totally devoured (we take all of Jesus).Taken in Faith: Eaten in haste, ready to move. Jesus is the fulfillment of this Passover lamb. He is the pure, personal sacrifice whose blood is applied to our lives, saving us from judgment.Baptism: The Red Sea Crossing Baptism is framed by the Israelites' crossing of the Red Sea (Exodus 14). It involves three movements of salvation:Leaving the Old Behind: Just as Israel left 430 years of slavery in Egypt, baptism symbolizes leaving our old life of bondage.Surrendering to God: At the Red Sea, Israel was trapped and terrified. Moses told them, "The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still." Baptism declares our trust in God to fight battles we cannot win.New Identity: Passing through the waters, Israel was born again as a free nation. They emerged on the other side with a new identity as worshipers, erupting in song. Baptism marks our entry into a new life and identity in Christ.Why We Do It We practice baptism and communion because Jesus commanded them, the early church practiced them, and they powerfully reenact the story of our salvation. They are not just rituals; they are "sacraments" that mark the church and remind us of who we are and whose we are.ConclusionThe sacraments of baptism and communion are God's way of "resetting our clocks" and marking us as His own. Just as the Passover changed the calendar for Israel, meeting Jesus changes everything for us. We leave behind the old, trust God to fight for us, and step into a new identity as His people.Calls to ActionRemember Your Baptism: If you are a believer, recall the moment you "crossed the Red Sea" and left your old life behind.Take Communion in Faith: When you participate in the Lord's Supper, remember the cost of the Lamb and apply His blood to your life by faith.Stand Firm: If you are facing an "impossible" Red Sea situation, hear the word of the Lord: "Do not be afraid. Stand firm... The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still." Support the show*Summaries and transcripts are generated using AI. Please notify us if you find any errors.

Surrender doesn't erase desire; it reorders desire, so that God's will becomes our deepest want.

What do you treasure most? In this powerful and moving sermon, Olly unpacks one of the most uncomfortable yet transformational stories in Scripture—Genesis 22, where Abraham is asked to sacrifice his beloved son Isaac.On a morning filled with joy for baby thanksgiving, we explore a passage about trust, obedience, and surrender. This message asks us to consider: What if God asked us to lay down the very thing we hold most dear?Through Abraham's radical obedience and God's faithful provision, we're pointed to the ultimate exchange—when God did not spare His own Son, Jesus, but gave Him up for us all. The story of Isaac becomes a prophetic shadow of the cross, reminding us that Jesus is our substitute, and that true faith is found in surrender.

In this message from our Genesis series, we explore Genesis 22—one of the most profound tests of faith in all of Scripture. Abraham is asked to sacrifice his only son, Isaac, and through this moment we discover what genuine faith, obedience, and trust in God's provision truly look like.John unpacks how Abraham's journey mirrors our own: the moments where God calls us to take a step of faith without seeing the full path, the challenge of obeying even when it's costly, and the confidence that God always provides exactly what we need. Through personal stories, biblical insight, and the wider picture of the gospel, we see how Abraham's faith ultimately points us to Jesus—the true sacrificial Son whom God did not withhold.If you're wrestling with trust, stepping into something new, or longing to see God's provision, this message will encourage you to take that step of faith knowing He will never let you fall.

Summary If the holidays leave you feeling overstimulated, snappy, or totally wiped out, you're not alone. Between family dynamics, endless to-do lists, travel, sugar, alcohol, and expectations from every direction, your nervous system is under a lot of pressure this time of year. In this episode, Ali breaks down what's actually happening in your body during holiday stress and why people-pleasing, overcommitting, and "pushing through" keep you stuck in survival mode. You'll learn practical tools to stay regulated in the middle of family gatherings, set gentle emotional boundaries, recover after overstimulating events, and support your hormones through the season. If you want to move through the holidays feeling more grounded, present, and at peace (without burning yourself out for everyone else), this episode is for you. Takeaways There's nothing wrong with you if you feel anxious during the holidays. The holiday season can be a perfect storm of stressors. Many women learn to stay agreeable to feel safe and connected. This learned behavior can lead to exhaustion and resentment in adulthood. The nervous system needs safety and space to calm down. You can't force your nervous system to relax; it must happen naturally. The snow globe metaphor illustrates the overwhelm many feel. Surrendering to your feelings is essential for emotional health. Self-care is crucial during stressful times like the holidays. Understanding childhood conditioning can help in managing adult stress. Sound bites "The season is a perfect storm of stressors." "Staying agreeable kept you safe and connected." "You can't just tell yourself to calm down."

The Generous Life Pt. 3 | November 23, 2025Pastor Bria BradshawProverbs 11:24 (MSG) The world of the generous gets larger and larger; the world of the stingy gets smaller and smaller.Leviticus 23:22 (ESV) “And when you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not reap your field right up to its edge, nor shall you gather the gleanings after your harvest. You shall leave them for the poor and for the sojourner: I am the Lord your God.”Live well within your boundaries - “Don't reap your field right up to its edges…”Leave what's behind for others - “Nor shall you gather the gleanings after your harvest.”Deuteronomy 24:19-22 (ESV) “When you reap your harvest in your field and forget a sheaf in the field, you shall not go back to get it. It shall be for the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow, that the Lord your God may bless you in all the work of your hands. When you beat your olive trees, you shall not go over them again. It shall be for the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow. When you gather the grapes of your vineyard, you shall not strip it afterward. It shall be for the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow. You shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt; therefore I command you to do this.GOD'S PLAN TO CARE FOR THE POOR AND THE MARGINALIZED HAS ALWAYS BEEN HIS PEOPLE.√  WE ARE MAXED OUT.√  WE WANT A RETURN.√  WE FORGET.Deuteronomy 24:22 (ESV) You shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt; therefore I command you to do this.WHERE GENEROSITY MOVESI.  WHERE WE MAKE SPACEAsk - Lord, where is my life so filled with me that there's no room for you to move?II.

WHERE WE'RE SURRENDEREDMatthew 25:34-40 (ESV) Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.' Then the righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? And when did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? And when did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?' And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you did it to me.'Ask - Lord, what part of my life is not surrendered or unavailable to you?Discussion Questions + Practice1.

Join Sandra for a profound and deeply healing conversation with author, spiritual medium, and former psychotherapist Tammy Lee Anderson. Tammy's extraordinary life has been shaped by not one, but three near-death experiences—beginning in infancy—which ignited a lifelong journey to understand the true nature of love and consciousness. In this episode, Tammy shares the vivid memories of her NDEs, including the overwhelming feeling of returning "home" to a place of peace and unconditional love. She discusses her diverse and fascinating path, which includes earning a 5th-degree black belt in Aikido, working as a hospital chaplain, and spending over a decade living in monastic communities, where she earned the playful nickname "The Flying Nun." Tammy opens up about her unique gifts, including her rare ability to create "Spirit Drawings"—sketching portraits of loved ones in spirit with guidance from the other side. She also shares wisdom from her 40 years as a healer, offering powerful insights on how suffering can be a doorway to deeper love and expansion, and why she believes we are here to "turn our grief into gratitude." This is a must-watch for anyone seeking hope, healing, and a deeper understanding of the soul's journey.

In this episode of Space for Life, Tommy welcomes entrepreneur Jeff Johnson for a deeply moving conversation about surrender, resilience, and the ways God reaches us through life's hardest moments. Jeff shares the powerful story of hitting the breaking point in his fourth-generation steel fabrication business, kneeling alone on the shop floor, and asking God to take over.What follows is a journey of obedience, transformation, and learning to “take your hands off” while still doing the next right thing. Through biblical stories of Simon Peter, reflections on work, and moments of vulnerability, Jeff illustrates how surrender opens the door to a deeper relationship with God and an unexpected path to renewal.Timestamps0:00 Intro2:17 Scotland Trip and How They Met3:45 Jeff Begins His Story6:02 Marriage Counseling and Learning to Listen7:49 Faith and Work in Jeff's Life10:26 History of Johnson Machine Works14:07 When Nothing Works16:28 Breaking Point on the Shop Floor19:42 Praying Over the Building and Workers23:49 The Unexpected Turnaround Begins26:54 God's Mercy, Not Formulas29:33 Why Work Matters in God's Design40:38 How God Used the Crisis to Reach Jeff44:22 Jeff's Tuesday Night Practice of Surrender46:25 Invitation for Anyone Needing EncouragementReferenced LinksJeff's Podcast, Courageous CrossroadsArtists & WritersTakeawaysSurrender is often where true transformation begins.Desperation can bring unexpected clarity.Work is part of God's design for purpose and flourishing.Vulnerability opens doors that effort alone cannot.God uses circumstances — even painful ones — to reach us.Doing the next right thing is part of surrender, not separate from it.Resilience is built in the quiet, unseen moments.Prayer can reshape environments, mindsets, and outcomes.Love the show?

The moment a boulder lands on your path is the moment your leadership shows. Do you freeze and wait for clarity, or move and create it? We dig into the simple but potent idea that action produces information and explore how the best teams keep delivering even when the trail turns steep and the hail starts to fall.We start by reframing accountability as power. Instead of punishing misses, we coach people to get curious about obstacles: What exactly is in our way, how big is it, and where's the gap we can exploit in the next 48 hours? That curiosity fuels a tight loop—discover, decide, do—that turns uncertainty into insight. Along the way, we talk about why complexity doesn't scale, how stories spread faster than slide decks, and what it takes to keep your org's “foggy middle” aligned on a small set of clear outcomes. Expect practical examples, from piloting small bets to resetting team language so direction and ownership are unmistakable.We also get candid about human nature. It's normal to shrink for a moment when the market shifts, budgets tighten, or competitors pounce. The difference-makers don't stay there. They take the smallest reversible action to learn something real, share that learning so it scales, and repeat the cycle until a path around, over, or through the obstacle appears. If you're leading a team through change, this conversation gives you language to rally your people, questions to unlock accountability, and steps to make progress without perfect information.If this resonates, share the episode with your team, subscribe for more practical leadership tools, and leave a quick review with your biggest takeaway—what boulder are you moving today?--Visit the Lone Rock Leadership Website:https://www.lonerock.ioConnect with me on LinkedIn or to send me a DM:https://www.linkedin.com/in/russleads/Tap here to check out my first book, Decide to Lead, on Amazon.

There's a reason certain questions rise to the surface at 2:00 a.m.—the hour when the house is quiet and the worries feel loudest. One of the questions couples wrestle with most in those restless moments is, “When will my spouse ever change?” It's a question born from disappointment, discouragement, and the fear that nothing will ever be different. In this episode, Rusty and Heather gently turn that question in a new direction. Instead of focusing on what a spouse is or isn't doing, they explore the deeper truth that genuine transformation in a marriage often begins within the heart that is willing to be changed. When a person stops trying to fix or manage their spouse's growth and instead comes to God with humility, readiness, and expectation, something shifts. A surrendered heart becomes the doorway to peace, clarity, and spiritual growth—even if the circumstances in the marriage haven't moved yet. Listeners will hear how preparing one's own heart creates space for God to work in ways frustration never could. Rusty and Heather describe the difference between waiting for a spouse to become someone new and allowing God to shape one's own responses, attitudes, and patterns. It's a hopeful reframe for anyone lying awake at night, exhausted from carrying the weight of change that was never theirs to hold. There's hope at 2:00 a.m. And it starts with a simple shift: “God, change me first.” Visit our website Watch us on YouTube

When we surrender our self-made identity, we are able to discover our truest identity in Jesus.

In this channeled talk the Master Kuthumi addresses the subject of change. Change is the only certainty in a third dimensional life and it challenges us to grow spiritually and so evolve.  Rather than attempting to control change by creating false realities or to live in a state of denial, we must learn to surrender to change and live in the moment, allowing fear and old patterns of belief, illusion and behaviour to fall away. The incoming reality is one of love and light.   The Wessex Research Group archive contains those lectures that have been digitised and are freely downloadable as a personal educational resource. https://www.wessexresearchgroup.org

This week Missionary Haley Azar shares her story of surrendering fully to God's will and plan to serve along side her husband in Beirut,  Lebanon. This podcast is a journey of full surrender—laying down every plan, fear, and expectation to follow the will of God with open hands. It's about what happens when you stop holding back and trust Him completely, even when the path leads far beyond your comfort zone. This podcast will help you live with deeper trust, bold obedience, and a surrendered heart. When we give God everything, He leads us exactly where we're meant to go.

The Deepest healing of the Mother Line I've ever experienced. I reconnected with my mother, who passed away when I was 17 yrs old. Connecting to my ancestral line and all of the women who felt disrespected, under supported, and under-resourced as mothers and women. Feeling in my body the great disrespect to the Earth.  We are not separate from the earth. We deeply need to come back to our hearts and souls. What one does to another is not separate, we ALL feel it, and she feels it (The Great Mother).  The Climate crisis is also collective trauma, violence, and divisiveness. Looking at thought patterns and the relationship with my mind. The Divine Timing of Things. The ineffable experience of working with this medicine. Bliss and loving dance with the divine. All of the information that came through – this life, past lives, and future. I felt home – it was a deep REMEMBRANCE OF COMING HOME. All of the love I felt and received. Receiving and experiencing love at such a depth and allowing it in.  Feeling deeply into self-love. We are all so loved by the divine and we are all inherently worthy beings.   Breathing, Trusting, and Surrendering to life and the overwhelming moments in ceremony. Merging with the matrix of the universe, no time and no space, I died, the Eternal Space Between (no birth and no death).  The terror and beauty in that. Wild to experience while being alive in a body. Grandmother Ayahuasca spoke to me in moments of overwhelm.  "Come back to your breath. Come back to your heart." The power of remembering who you REALLY ARE. It is a miracle to be alive. To be human is to learn and relearn the lesson of letting go, forgiveness, and love. We co-create with the universe. Don't forget the power of your breath.

Trauma doesn't just live in the past — it can shape our perception, energy, and how we show up in the world. In this heart-opening episode of Daughters of the Moon, Rhiannon Heins guides us through surrendering to healing and reconnecting with our true nature: love.We explore:

On this season of Live Vedanta, we're distilling the Shrimad Bhagavad Gita into its 70 essential verses. In Essential Verse 3 (Chapter 2, Verse 7), we explore the theme of fearlessness as Arjuna, overwhelmed by the thought of war, turns to Divinity for clarity and guidance. When we admit that relying solely on intellect hasn't shown us our purpose, we open ourselves to spiritual growth by becoming humble disciples.➡️ To maximize your experience of this season, we encourage you to request your FREE copy of the Essential Love eBook. Incorporating accessible translations and practical application, the eBook accompanies each episode with additional ways to learn, synthesize, and reflect on key insights.

In this episode, Felicia discusses the profound peace that Jesus offers, emphasizing that true peace is not dependent on external circumstances but is a gift that resides within us. She shares personal experiences of anxiety and the journey to understanding that peace is a choice rooted in faith. The conversation encourages listeners to lean into God's presence, especially during chaotic times, and to embrace the peace that surpasses all understanding.TakeawaysPeace is a gift from Jesus, not based on circumstances.True peace is found in the presence of God.Life can be chaotic, but Jesus offers peace amidst it.Surrendering worries can shift our perspective.The peace of God guards our hearts and minds.Peace is not something to chase, but to choose.Trusting God brings lasting peace.Anxiety can be managed through prayer and faith.God's peace is eternal and unshakeable.We are never alone in our struggles.

Surrendering to God means trusting in his will.

What's the difference between giving up and giving in? Giving up is a lack of perseverance, but giving in is about surrendering control. In today's message, Pastor Ron Zappia turns to Hebrews chapter 7 to share 3 Reasons why we need to fully surrender to Jesus' supremacy and superiority. This message was originally preached at Highpoint Church on Sunday, November 09, 2025 Title: Surrendering to Jesus' Supremacy and Superiority Passage: Hebrews 7:1-10 For more info about Highpoint Church, or to find a location near you, visit our website at https://highpoint.church.

Jesus says something completely different from the gospel of self that our culture preaches. Jesus says to deny ourselves, take up our cross, and follow him—and when we do that, we'll find life.

Send us a textIn this episode, I dive into one of the hardest, yet most transformative spiritual practices... Surrendering!I share what surrender really means, why it's not giving up, and how letting go can actually help life unfold more smoothly. Using examples from everyday life and my own journey, I explain how surrender is an active practice of trusting the process, easing tension, and listening to your inner guidance.Exploring how the ego resists uncertainty and control, and why letting go of the need to manage everything opens the door for clarity, opportunities, and unexpected solutions. I guide you through a reflective exercise with three key questions to help identify what you're trying to control, what it might feel like to hand it over, and how to trust the unknown. Together with a practical surrendering technique you can use anytime.If you've been pushing, overthinking, or trying to force life to unfold a certain way, and you are exhausted 'trying to make things happen', this episode is your guide. 

Heading into their Week 10 bye on November 7, 2025, the Cincinnati Bengals sit at 3-6, a record that masks a tale of two teams: an offense firing on all cylinders under Joe Flacco's steady hand, and a defense that's not just bad—it's etching itself into the annals of NFL infamy. Paul Brown Stadium buzzes with cautious optimism for the attack, but the back end's collapse has fans dreaming of duct tape and prayer. Joe Flacco, the 40-year-old bridge quarterback thrust into the spotlight amid Joe Burrow's latest injury woes, has been nothing short of revelatory. In six starts, he's posted a 105.2 passer rating, slicing defenses with a 71% completion clip and 12 touchdowns to just three picks. His pocket presence—honed from two Super Bowl runs—has unlocked the Bengals' weapons. Ja'Marr Chase is a one-man highlight reel, scorching secondaries for 1,100 yards and nine scores, while Tee Higgins' midseason return has added a vertical terror, averaging 18 yards per catch. The run game? Revitalized, with Chase Brown pounding out 650 yards at 5.2 per carry, feeding off an offensive line that's gelled into a mauling unit. They've erupted for 31 points per game over the last four outings, turning shootouts into symphonies. Flacco's veteran savvy—calling audibles like a chess master—has this group humming, a far cry from the Burrow-less sputters of years past. Yet, for all the offensive fireworks, the defense is a dumpster fire of historic proportions. Surrendering 35 points per contest—the worst in franchise lore and bottom-feeder league-wide—they've allowed 4,200 total yards already, more than most full seasons. The secondary is Swiss cheese: corners like Cam Taylor-Britt and Mike Hilton torched for 1,200 passing yards and 12 TDs, with safeties Vonn Bell and Jordan Battle whiffing tackles like pros at a piñata party. Up front, the pass rush is anemic—eight sacks total, none from a depleted D-line missing B.J. Hill to injury. Run stuffers? Laughable, coughing up 160 yards per game on the ground. Lou Anarumo's schemes look like relics from the West Coast offense era. Zac Taylor's squad enters the break with a prayer: harness the bye for scheme tweaks and youth infusions. Offense can carry them to 9-8 and a wild-card sniff, but without defensive voodoo—trades? Miracles?—this Bengal pride risks another winter of what-ifs. Flacco's magic buys time, but history whispers: firepower alone doesn't forge rings. Fans roar for resurrection; the D must awaken, or it's just Bengal fireworks fizzling in the Ohio chill Music from #InAudio: https://inaudio.org/ Track Name Holy (Trap).

The Fire of Christ's Heart: Surrendering to Grace or to the World Today's Homily reflects on a challenging Gospel passage . . . . . . where Jesus says He came not to bring peace but division. The Homily also invites us to linger with difficult Scriptures rather than skip to “favorite parts,” because they reveal essential truths about salvation. St. Paul reminds believers that although Christ has already won victory over sin, we must still freely choose to surrender to God's grace instead of giving in to old habits, emotions, and worldly desires. We Must Still Freely Choose to Surrender to God's Grace Jesus speaks with deep urgency and longing for our salvation, revealing His burning desire to complete His saving mission on the Cross. True peace is not simply avoiding conflict or leaving things as they are; rather, Jesus brings a necessary division between the old life of sin and the new life of grace. Choosing the Kingdom means leaving behind “business as usual,” even when that causes tension within ourselves, our families, or society. Ultimately, life presents only two paths: God's way or the way that leads to emptiness, shame, and death. The Lord calls us to choose the way of life, to surrender to grace, and to walk with Him . . . who gives us strength in the Eucharist . . . to become truly new and free in Him.

When something “bad” happens that you never saw coming, the default human response is blame of self, others, or life itself. In this episode, I invite you to consider a radical reframe: what if the “bad thing” is the precursor to an incoming miracle? Continuing the ongoing conversation about embodying a timeline of Miracle Frequency, we explore how tension is required for growth, why surrender is not bypassing, and how to hold pressure from a grounded seat of responsibility while refusing to let fear have the final say. I share personal stories, powerful examples of grace in action (forgiveness, resilience, leadership), and an invitation to those who feel called to fully embody Miracle Frequency: this path isn't random - you may have been praying for it (even unconsciously). In this episode you'll learn: Why tension and pressure often precede profound transformation How to shift from victimhood to radical responsibility without bypassing your human reality A liberating posture: trusting a bigger orchestration while keeping your feet on the ground What it means to step into a timeline of miracles, not just momentary moments of grace How unreasonable, audacious faith meets practical, day-to-day action Join the work: Miracle Frequency Masterclass (Free, 2 days) — Nov 13 & 14, 11:00–12:15pm AEDT.
