Ep. 2.51 : How to Break Out of Survival Mode with Somer Colbert

Welcome to the Love Where You Are podcast! 

Today’s episode is very special because YOU are the special guest. This is my gift to you this holiday season. A few months ago, I had the priviledge of speaking at a women’s conference at First Baptist Church in Bentonville, Arkansas. Now, not only did those women and mothers receive my message but you do as well.

As we wrap up Season 2 of this podcast, and the year 2022, and venture forward into the new year and new season, my hope this message will conclude things with a fitting note and start us off on the right page and prepare you for this season as well. May these words encourage and strengthen you with God’s truth. You will hear me shed light on the lies of the enemy, the history of Eve and what it means for us, and how to love where you are… 

Thank you for listening to the Love Where You Are podcast, for an amazing Season 2 of 50 episodes! I cannot wait to see where God takes us next… 

Now, let’s dive in! 

 

FAVORITE TAKE-AWAYS:

*”We are human beings, not human doings”

*Eve’s original Hebrew name is “Havah” which means Life. Eve was created from life — Adam, and Eve was created for life — to be a mother.

*God took care and had purpose when He made women.

*When Adam and Eve walked in perfection with God, they were not stressed or worried or hurrying to the next thing… they had time to work, time to rest, and time to be in relationship with one another. That is what God designed for us.

*Somer’s Proverbs 31 Woman reimagined

 

REMEMBER:

*Know that you are a daughter of the King

*Never negate your value

*”The season of life you’re in right now, is preparing you for the season ahead.”
