Episode 19: Susan Esco - Lean In

Golden Nuggets from Susan Esco 

1. Misunderstanding God “kicked her to the curb” feeling judged an overwhelmed with legalism.
2. God's forgiveness frees us to love others well.
3. God’s forgiveness removes our sin “as far as the east is from the west.”
4. We all need the TRUTH (that sets us free) that can only be found in God’s word. We need to KNOW the TRUTH.
5. “Do we want God on our terms? Or God on His terms or as He sees fit?”
6. Life is guaranteed to have hard spots.
7. The Lord uses deep trials to bring us into intimate and personal comfort with Him.
8. We cannot EARN His love or favor as we already HAVE it!
9. Transformation is 100% the work of the Holy Spirit but it is 100% ours to invite it, participate with and yield to it.
10. There are still battles...Even after our breakthroughs.
11. God goes AHEAD of us…He is not surprised by the things that surprise us.
12. “This is not about my lung cancer, I am on a mission trip with all involved in my cancer journey.” Our difficulties give us an opportunity to teach others about Jesus.
13. The church is not perfect because it is made up of imperfect people.
14. When we have friends beside us we can suffer longer and better.
15. Cancer treatments at MD Anderson provided a mission field where the “fish were jumping in the net”...so many divine appointments.
16. Desperation is often disguised as a gift leading to a better change.
17. We need to know the TRUTH of God in a world that is so full of lies….We learn truth through the Bible, fellowship, Bible studies etc
18. It is never our efforts that will do it….He is the transformer, we are just a vehicle of His love to others.
19. SEEK Jesus…..LEAN into Him!
