95. Is God Strong Enough to Protect Me—and Gentle Enough to Trust?

Описание: What if God’s power isn’t something to fear—but something your nervous system has been longing for?



In this episode, we walk slowly through Psalm 68, a bold and moving psalm that redefines strength, authority, and leadership through the lens of protection, presence, and care for the vulnerable.



Many of us carry complicated relationships with power—shaped by unpredictable authority, control, absence, or harm. So when Scripture speaks of a mighty God who “arises,” our bodies may brace instead of rest.



Psalm 68 offers a different picture.



Here we meet a God whose strength protects instead of controls.

A God whose authority moves toward the vulnerable.

A God who walks with His people through unresolved seasons rather than waiting at the finish line.



This episode is especially for those who:




• struggle with anxiety or hypervigilance


• find authority difficult to trust


• have been wounded by misuse of power


• feel stuck in long, unresolved seasons


• are learning to move from reaction to rest




We’ll explore how God holds salvation and justice together, why true victory creates closeness rather than distance, and how Psalm 68 beautifully aligns with the Happy Kid Toolkit—revealing a model of secure leadership that brings calm instead of chaos.



This is not a call to strive harder.

It’s an invitation to stop bracing and discover a God who is both strong and safe.



xoxo,



Danielle
