A Sacrifice of Joy: Saying Yes to Your Calling with Elisabeth Brown

As people who love the Lord we want to desire what God desires, we want to walk faithfully in obedience with little to no doubt. But... that isn't normally the case. We are human. We doubt, worry and wrestle with the calling God gives us at times. Maybe it doesn't feel as if it lines up with what we enjoy most or it seems like way too big of a challenge. But we as Christ followers know we can trust our unknown to our known God. Normally that's easier said than done though. 

That's why I love today's conversation so much! My new friend Elisabeth Brown shares how God led her to write a children's book during a season of transitions in her life that she wasn't necessarily planning on. She felt unsure how God would provide or fulfill the desires of her heart. Her authentic testimony of a sacrifice of joy in the unknown of life will inspire you to trust the Lord even when things don't make sense or add up. You can say yes to the call God has on your life right now, even when you feel unsure of how it will turn out.

Key Takeaways: 

• The Lord asks us to decide if we will trust Him with both big and small things, our response makes a great deal of difference
• When we obey God’s call on our lives He is faithful to show up and provide in ways we can’t even dream up
• Surrendering our desires to God gives Him the opportunity to work through us in amazing ways
• Meeting our children where they are with stories will impact their understanding of the love of God
