Embracing the Seasons of Life with Anthony DeStefano
In today's episode Somer and Anthony discuss the ways God grows us in our seasons of life, the need for pause, prayer as our greatest weapon against the enemy, and how our dreams are glimpses of God's plan for us…
Notable moments the conversation:
“Preach the gospel at all times and if necessary, use words.” – Saint Francis of Assisi
“You can’t give what you can’t have” – Latin phrase
Anthony points out that your dreams and desires are not the same as God’s plan for your life, but they are clues from God as to where He wants you to be and your purpose. God rarely gives us straight answers but glimpses of the road ahead, a divine GPS, so we can seek Him and draw nearer in unity with Him.
Somer notes we are often building our own kingdoms instead of focusing on building God's kingdom.
