SHOW NOTES: 

Quotes from the episode:

“It turned into this idea that how I looked would be equal to how I would be loved.”

“It became the outlet that I served…it was the idol in my life.”

“I was looking for the lesson in the sickness versus looking to the healer for healing.”

“As soon as I started to realize that God wanted me well and he wasn’t giving me sickness I was able to approach the throne with boldness. “

“I know that you want me well, your heart is for me, therefore how I can partner with what He already did for me and to begin to walk that out.”

“If you don’t change the narrative in your head about your body, about your food, and your working out, then you are still going to be chasing the external things to solve the internal problem.”

“All that is within me, I believe that the spiritual side will directly affect the physical side.”

“He’s reminding us constantly that the thoughts that we think are going to produce an action for us.”

“If we’re made in the Father’s image and in His likeness, how we view the Father will directly impact our identity.”

“Which is why it’s so important to know God’s character, so that our identity (how we view ourselves), we also begin to live out the truth.”

“How we react to His word will be dependent on that view of the Father.”
