This teaching invites you to reflect on what happens when we try to manage, control, or carry things God never intended us to handle alone. Together, we explore what it means to trust God more deeply in this season. Especially when answers aren’t clear, and leadership feels heavy. This is an invitation to release pressure, lean into faith, and allow God to guide you with peace and clarity.

This question isn’t meant to be comfortable. It’s meant to be honest. So often we ask God for more: more clarity, more peace, more direction. But this teaching invites us to pause and reflect on how we’re showing up in our relationship with Him. Not out of obligation. Not to get something. But simply because He is God, and He desires closeness with His children. 🎥 If you haven’t yet, I encourage you to listen to today’s 'She Leads Boldly' podcast episode. I talk about what happens when we lead from momentum instead of alignment, and how God lovingly invites us back when we’ve drifted (even while succeeding). https://sheleadsboldly.buzzsprout.com/ 💬 Reflection Question: What do you sense God saying about your relationship with Him right now? What might He be inviting you to lean into more? One sentence is enough. This is a safe space 🤎

📖 Scripture — Exodus 33:14 (NIV) “The Lord replied, ‘My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.’” ✨ Reflection There was a season in my corporate leadership life when I thought rest would come after I finished everything God assigned me. But God gently showed me that His presence is not a reward for endurance. It is the source of sustainable leadership. You don’t need a better planner… You need a deeper pace with Him. Rest is alignment. 💬 Gentle question Where in your life right now are you still trying to move ahead without first sitting in God’s presence? You don’t need to push harder. You need God’s presence to lead you forward. 🤎

📖 Scripture: “Be still, and know that I am God.” — Psalm 46:10 💭 Reflection: Stillness isn’t a pause from purpose. It’s often where God realigns us. When life feels loud and leadership feels heavy, God invites us to stop striving and remember who is truly in control. You don’t have to carry everything to prove your faith or your strength. 🎥 Watch This Week’s Teaching: A short teaching connected to this scripture is available. It’s an invitation to release what was never yours to hold and allow God to lead you differently in this season. 💬 Gentle Prompt: What feels hardest for you to be still about right now? One sentence, or even one word, is enough 🤎

📖 Scripture: “Be still, and know that I am God.” — Psalm 46:10 💭 Reflection: Stillness can feel uncomfortable when you’re used to leading, fixing, and holding everything together. Yet God invites us to pause. ...Not as an escape, but as a way to remember who is truly in control. Stillness is not inactivity. It’s alignment. Sometimes the most faithful thing we can do is stop long enough to listen. 💬 Gentle Question: Where might God be inviting you to slow down or be still this week? Take your time. There’s no rush here 🤎
