E126: DAY 25 BECOMING A FISHER OF MEN | Chaos to Clarity

Описание: Hey there Beautiful Souls! Welcome to Day 25 of "Chaos to Clarity: Hearing God When Life is Loud" - a 30-day transformational journey on The Holy Shift Devotionals Podcast with Desiree Day.


THE FULL ARC: FROM CHAOS TO CLARITY TO CALLING


Today's powerful episode reveals the complete progression - where Desiree was, how God brought her up the stairway, and where she is now as a fisher of men.


WHERE SHE WAS: Before going all in with God, before fully surrendering - exhausted, frustrated, running in victim mode. Feeling hurt by people who just had their own things going on. Relying on happiness from others, constantly disappointed. Gave all of herself to everyone in worldly terms but wasn't tapped into God filling her cup. Trying to find strength herself, constantly ran out. At wit's end 90% of the time. Even washing dishes or driving to church felt exhausting to think about.


THE CLIMB: Started implementing prayer daily. Jesus Calling devotional every morning. Letter to God in journal every night. Each practice its own baby step. God brought her up the stairway inch by inch. As she became more faithful, God moved in bigger ways. Even in worldly ways, these two actions helped God clear her plate. He showed her fellowship with moms, brought her to His word, she sought and knocked. Became grateful. Wrote the devotional. Shared at conference May 2025 - women testified how it helped. Pastor saw it, asked for sermon, published his book. God kept showing what wasn't serving her.


WHERE SHE IS NOW: Most unknown time of her life, doesn't know how things will work out. But centered in the Lord, not worried. God gave her the podcast to reach people in whatever season. People she's known for years reaching out about her faith - they want this kind of love too. God trusted her to start discipling people.


One friend: "After you started openly talking about faith, it brought me back to church."


Another friend: "The night you called was the night I planned to end my life. I've made a huge transformation since."


The chaos she survived helps others find clarity. Never regretted things from before - saw as learning lessons. Now sees them as testimony to help others find God.


God didn't just rescue her. He rescued her so she could help rescue others.
