Weekly Affirmation:
“I trust God’s plan even when I can’t see the whole picture. His ways are higher, and I walk forward in bold faith, knowing He is working all things for my good and His glory.”

Key Verse:
📖 Jeremiah 10:23 (NIV) – “Lord, I know that people’s lives are not their own; it is not for them to direct their steps.”

Podcast Description:
Disappointment happens when your preference collides with God’s purpose.
You thought it would look different, feel easier, or happen faster—but God’s plan often leads through surrender before fulfillment.

In this episode, you’ll hear:
💡 How to find peace when life looks nothing like you imagined
💡 The difference between disappointment and divine redirection
💡 Why surrendering your plan is not giving up—it’s growing up in faith
💡 How to trust God’s authorship when the story doesn’t make sense yet

Faith isn’t loving every part of the process—it’s trusting that the process has a purpose.
You’re not failing because your story looks different—you’re growing because you’re still saying yes to the Author.
