Have you been living out the expectations of others rather than being yourself?

In this episode, we take a look at David as an example of someone who needed to shed the expectations put upon him by others. In his case, David literally needed to shed the armor that Saul had given him for battle.

It’s time to begin living out the unique plans God has for each of us as we fulfill our calling!

This episode’s Godly affirmation:

“I’m living out the plans of God for my life, not the expectations of others.”

“Let all that I am wait quietly before God, for my hope is in Him.” – Psalm 62:5 (NLT)
