#228: Is God Calling You? (Feat. Sam Semans)
Is God Calling You?
Sam Semans, who is a part of our CCF Team joins Suzanne to discuss life, family, and ministry. She shared about her family - amazing husband, homeschooling 4 children while creating a new ministry. The Abundant Women Collective was created out of an obedient YES to the Lord. She sold her marketing business to gather women who want to deepen their relationship with Jesus to share their testimony and journey with other like-minded women.
We discussed capacity and calling.
We have to decide our capacity. Sam has always had a large capacity. She started doing things out of a good works mentality. Thinking that busy means good. She was all about striving because it made her feel accomplished.
She had to learn how to practice resting and abiding and having a surrendered life and holding onto everything loosely. Sam, βI want to do what God tells me to do.β
At the end of the day, God is calling you something and wants to walk with you into more of His purposes. It's worth it to seek Him for your ministry/calling. Do you know your calling from God?
Ministry is a calling.
We are all called to do something different, but we are called.
A calling is a stirring in our hearts.
Examples of ways we are called:
- Bible study in the home
- Making a meal
- Knitting/sewing
- Making meals for others
- Loving people along the way
Nuggets from the podcast:
- God has qualified you - if you are called, he has equipped you.
- Our only job as women is to fall more in love with God.
- Pressing into him loving him more discerning ear tuned in.
- Fall in love with Jesus more everyday.
- Must exercise our obedience muscle.
- Must intentionally focus on our relationship with Jesus.
