#164 - Peace with your Body: Trust the Potter
Have you ever believed that hating your body would motivate you to change?
Today’s episode will challenge that idea—and invite you into a much lighter, Spirit-led approach. 🕊️
We’re talking about how peace with your body starts by trusting the Potter who formed you—not by fighting the clay He lovingly created.
If you’re tired of striving, self-criticism, and shame-driven motivation, this episode will encourage your heart and give you a new way forward. 💛
💡 In This Episode You’ll Learn:
- 🧡 Why disliking your body doesn’t create lasting change
- ✨ How gratitude and acceptance open the door to consistency
- 📖 The meaning of Isaiah 64:8 and how it reshapes your view of your body
- 🕊️ Why surrender (not striving) leads to peace
- 🙌 Simple ways to start practicing gratitude for your body today
📖 Faith Anchor:
"Yet you, Lord, are our Father.
We are the clay, you are the potter;
we are all the work of Your hand."
— Isaiah 64:8
✨ You are not a mistake.
✨ You are not a problem to fix.
✨ You are the work of His hands—beautifully made with purpose.
🛠️ Practical Takeaway:
This week, practice speaking gratitude over your body.
Small, daily thank-you's can soften your heart and align you with the Spirit’s truth.
📝 Try this:
- Thank your legs for carrying you.
- Thank your lungs for breathing without you thinking about it.
- Thank your hands for serving and caring for others.
Gratitude creates the soil where real transformation grows. 🌱
