God's Orange Dress Moment

Episode Title: God's Orange Dress Moment

Episode Description:

Ever felt invisible? Like you're just taking up space while everyone else gets noticed? In Genesis 29 there's a woman named Leah who knows that feeling better than most — and what God does about it will change how you see yourself.

In This Episode:

  • The "orange dress moment" — what love at first sight has to do with your relationship with God
  • Jacob and Rachel's story and how Leah gets lost in the middle of it
  • Why God stepping in for Leah reveals one of His most important traits
  • The meaning behind each of Leah's four sons' names and the quiet shift that happens by the fourth
  • A personal challenge to stop chasing the world's attention and start praising the God who already sees you

Key Quote:

"God had His own orange dress moment when He first saw you. And unlike me, He didn't fumble."

About the Podcast

Leaving the Kid's Table
Do you remember the “kid’s table” when at family holidays or dinners? I do and that is right where I feel I am at, still, in my walk with God. Some look at it as being “ankle deep” in our walk. Either way, I am at a point where I am tired of being in this state. Every Monday at 6 am I will release short episodes where I am going to share what stood out to me in my time with God. At the end of the day it comes down to where scripture meets your story. You may be in the same spot as I am or you are sitting at the adult table or may need to join the kids table. Either option is ok, these episodes are to start the conversation as to “what stands out to you?” and not only grow myself but help others grow as well. "Here's the thing - leaving the kid's table isn't a one-time decision. It's a daily choice. And every day you choose to go deeper, I'll be right here with you."
