In a culture that celebrates independence and self-sufficiency, dependence on God can feel counterintuitive—even weak. But Scripture teaches that true peace and transformation begin when we stop striving and start surrendering.
In the podcast Embracing Dependence on God, John shares his experience of grieving the loss of his independence. It wasn’t just circumstantial—it was a heart-level struggle. He realized that his desire to control outcomes was robbing him of peace. Only when he embraced dependence on God did he begin to experience freedom.
This message is echoed in Be Transformed: New Life Awaits. Like a Marine recruit who becomes someone new through rigorous internal change, we must allow God to reshape our hearts. Transformation doesn’t come from trying harder—it comes from surrendering our need to control and trusting God’s plan.
Dependence is not weakness—it’s wisdom. It’s the recognition that our strength is limited, but His is infinite. When we open our hearts to His truth, we begin to live from a place of peace, not pressure.
If you’re weary from striving, ask yourself: Am I living in dependence on God, or am I still trying to manage life on my own?
Listen to the podcast Embracing Dependence on God to discover how surrender leads to peace and how transformation begins with trust.
