Trusting God with the people you love can sometimes feel harder than trusting Him with your own struggles. When we care deeply, we often carry deeply too. We worry, pray, replay conversations, and quietly hold burdens for children, spouses, parents, and friends. However, God never asked us to carry everyone. In this week’s Rooted + Rested episode, we’re talking about surrender, prayer, and learning how to place the people we love back into God’s hands.
This week on Rooted + Rested, we’re talking about surrendering worry, trusting God with outcomes we cannot control, and learning to place the people we love back into God’s hands.
In this episode we reflect on:
💜 trusting God with loved ones
💜 praying instead of carrying anxiety
💜 releasing fear and control
💜 loving deeply without carrying everything
💜 surrender and peace through Scripture
