    You prayed for growth—but are you ready to walk in it? 🌱

    Too often, we hesitate when God calls us forward. We let fear, doubt, and the need for "certainty" hold us back. But the truth is: Your season of growth has arrived—it’s time to step into it boldly.

    In this episode of Embracing the Journey with Dr. Norma, we explore:
    How to recognize when God is calling you forward—and stop second-guessing yourself.
    Why fear is NOT a reason to stay stuck—God equips those He calls!
    How to flourish in faith—even when you don’t feel "ready."
    A powerful story of someone who almost missed their opportunity—because they hesitated.
    Isaiah 41:10"Do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."

    🔥 It’s time to stop waiting and start walking in faith. If you’re feeling stretched, challenged, or like something new is calling you—this is your confirmation!

    After the pruning comes the planting. 🌿

    God doesn’t just remove things from our lives—He prepares us for something greater. But are you taking time to get rooted in purpose? Growth isn’t just about what you see on the surface—it’s about how deeply planted your faith is beneath it.

    In this episode of Embracing the Journey with God, we explore:
    How to nurture your faith after letting go of what no longer serves you.
    Why being “planted” in God’s Word is the key to spiritual growth.
    A powerful real-life story of someone who found purpose after loss.
    How to recognize if your environment is helping you grow or pulling you backward.
    Colossians 2:7“Let your roots grow down into Him, and let your lives be built on Him.”

    🌿 If you’re feeling stuck, unsure, or waiting for a breakthrough—this is your confirmation. Take the time to root yourself in faith, trust God’s timing, and prepare for the season of growth ahead.

    Growth isn’t just about adding—it’s about letting go. 🌿 Just as trees shed branches in Spring to make room for new life, God prunes us—removing what no longer serves us so we can step into something greater. But are you resisting His process?

    In this episode of Embracing the Journey with God, we explore:
    What spiritual pruning looks like—and why it’s necessary for growth.
    How to recognize when God is calling you to release something—a mindset, a relationship, a fear, or even a version of yourself.
    A powerful story of transformation from someone who lost everything—only to realize it was God’s setup for a greater purpose.
    Dr. Norma’s personal experience with surrendering control and how it led to doors opening in unexpected ways.
    John 15:2“He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit He prunes so that it will be even more fruitful.”

    🌿 If you’re feeling stuck, maybe it’s time to ask: What is God asking me to release? This episode will encourage you to embrace the discomfort, trust the process, and step into your next season of growth.

    Faith isn’t a fixed point—it’s a journey that evolves, just like the changing of the seasons. In this episode of Embracing the Journey with God, we explore how faith grows, stretches, and even faces moments of doubt—but through it all, God is still at work in you.

    With the arrival of Spring, nature reminds us that renewal is possible—that after every spiritual winter, there is a season of growth waiting to bloom. Dr. Norma shares a powerful modern-day story of transformation, reflections on Philippians 1:6, and a deeply personal look at how learning to listen to herself first was the key to guiding others.

    🌿 In this episode, you’ll discover:
    ✅ Why doubt is not the enemy of faith, but a step toward deeper belief.
    ✅ How faith mirrors nature, moving through seasons of waiting, growing, and blossoming.
    ✅ The importance of giving yourself grace as you navigate your spiritual journey.
    ✅ Encouragement to trust that God is still completing the work He started in you.

    📖 “Being confident of this, that He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.” – Philippians 1:6

    🌷 Feeling stuck in your faith? This episode is your wake-up call. Listen in for wisdom, encouragement, and a fresh perspective on what it truly means to grow in faith.
