The Gift of Limitations: Finding the Beauty in Boundaries w/ Sara Hagerty

Have you ever wrestled with the constraints life throws at you or experienced limitations that seem to fence you in? Wondering where grace fits into the picture and asking the question, are there blessings in the boundaries of our lives? Sara Hagerty, a writer of deep insight and experience, joins us in a profound exploration of finding peace amidst boundaries of personal trials, from infertility to the challenges of understanding God's love in times of stillness. Her candid stories serve as a testament to the surprising ways grace manifests in our lives, especially when we're grappling with the weight of feeling we have too much and yet not enough.Sarah and I discuss the importance of honoring our limits, in everything we do from physical activities to finances to parenting. Through her story of ambition clashing with reality, we shed light on the realism in navigating life's challenges—a journey not just about reaching goals but also learning from the detours.In the final segment, we delve into the connection between our emotions, self-awareness, and the pace at which we live our lives.  Our conversation invites listeners to slow down, listen to the signals of our limitations, and discover the power of presence in the narratives unfolding in our lives. Join Sara and me for a conversation that will not only move you but might also reshape the way you view the quiet spaces where grace resides.Book: The Gift of LimitationsIG - @sarahagertywritesBible - ESVIlluminated Scripture Journal - NTIlluminated Scripture Journal - OTGrowth JournalApp - Blue Letter BibleSupport the Show.Check out our website for more ways to fully connect to God's Word.
