Listen "How to Stop Building a Life God Never Intended for You | Alita Reynolds | Women of Faith"

Episode Synopsis


Are you chasing your own goals or living in the holy rhythm God designed for you?  This episode will help you discover how to align your daily life with His unforced rhythms of grace. Learn how to stop building a life God never intended for you and start walking in His peace purpose and kingdom ambition.
In this episode I share:• What it means to live in a holy rhythm instead of a common rhythm• How Godly ambition is different from worldly ambition• Why margin and intentionality are key to following God’s will• The power of consistency in ordinary everyday choices• Encouragement from Colossians 3:23 and 1 Thessalonians 4:11 to reshape how you work and live
I pray this conversation helps you reflect on whether you are pursuing Godly ambition or your own ambition. 
Let’s choose together to walk humbly to serve faithfully and to live in rhythm with God’s grace. 
Watch until the end for reflection questions that will help you take these truths into your daily life.
I’m wildly cheering you! 
Alita Reynolds
