Summary
For many years, Kim Hughes of our Fairhope community lived a try-harder lifestyle in which the effort she put forth was equal to the emptiness she felt. Half-commitments to the Lord left her striving for comfort in worldly things.
But when He shook up her plans and pursued her heart, Kim finally found herself pursuing Him in return—and also the rich relationship she'd missed out on.
In this episode, you will learn:
– When you receive His grace instead of trying to earn it, you walk closer to Jesus.
– If the Lord has removed you from your comfort zone, pay attention to what His purpose is in your life.
– Until Jesus is enough, nothing ever will be.
