Write this Down! with Dot Bowen

It can feel difficult to praise God when we’re waiting for Him to do something, or we’re struggling to understand His plans. But Hebrews reminds us that our praise is a sacrifice we can give in celebration of who He is and the way Jesus died for us on the cross. In this episode, Dot and Cara reflect on this idea of a sacrifice of praise, and they talk about some of the different ways we can come before God in prayer, even when we’re wrestling with big questions or struggling to believe He has good things in store for us. Episode RecapStart by writing down Hebrews 13:15 (0:13)Praise is more powerful than we often realize (1:55)Many of us forget to be thankful for what Jesus did on the cross (5:08)Advent reminds us to celebrate God’s presence with us (7:45)We can be honest with God when we’re wrestling (13:44)God wants to give good gifts to His children (18:53)Going to God in prayer is an act of faith (24:25)Jesus submitted to the Father’s will when he came to earth (27:56) Resources:The Breathe Retreat is a retreat in every sense of the word, intentionally designed to allow you space to breathe in your Heavenly Father's love!
