Ep 245 A Woman's Heart is Not Her To-Do List with Lisa Granger

Lisa knows about To-Do Lists and how who she is can get stuck in how well she crosses everything off. Join Lisa Granger and me to day on Welcome Heart: Living a Legacy Life. Lisa hosts A Woman's Heart Podcast and radio station and her legacy and desire is to encourage women to look to God for hope and healing rather than what she can accomplish on any given day. Lisa learned to recognize the difference between hoping she could fulfill her dreams and expectations (and other's expectations) and hoping in the One Who made her to relate well with Himself with peace and quiet and joy, no matter the circumstances. 

Lisa offers her free resource for all my listeners today of 8 Verses of Hope. 

Some gems from our conversation:

• God can handle all my emotions, good and bad—he's no wimp!
• I want to act on any prompts the Lord is giving me so that I can encourage others.
• God puts something special in every woman's heart to share with the world.
• I learned to put my hope in God rather than what I could accomplish for God.
• Hopelessness is exhausting. Hope provides an energy that enables me to do the next thing with faith and strength.
• Faith will fuel hope and hope fuels my faith. 
• I am in the process of overcoming deep roots of shame and feelings of inadequacy. 
• If my To-Do List is too long, I'm learning to ask myself: "Are these tasks from God or from an oversensitive sense of other's expectations, including my own?"
