Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life..." — Matthew 6:25

What do you do when trusting God feels harder than worrying?

In this episode of Everyday Joy, Ash is joined by Jen for a deeply honest conversation about anxiety, uncertainty, and learning to trust God when life feels completely out of your control.

Together, they unpack Jesus' words from the Sermon on the Mount and explore why worry can so easily become our default response. They discuss how anxiety often reveals what we're placing our trust in, why God cares deeply about our everyday needs, and the difference between trying to control our future and surrendering it to Him.

Jen vulnerably shares about walking through an incredibly uncertain season with her family, wrestling with unanswered questions, feeling frustrated with God, and discovering that faith isn't the absence of difficult emotions—it's choosing to trust Him in the middle of them. Ash also reflects on how the enemy uses fear and intimidation to keep us focused on the unknown, while God invites us to fix our eyes on His faithfulness instead.

This episode is a reminder that God is big enough to handle our questions, our frustration, and even our anger. He isn't intimidated by our emotions, and His peace is available even when our circumstances haven't changed.

If you're carrying anxiety about the future, waiting for answers, or struggling to trust God in a season of uncertainty, this conversation will encourage you to keep choosing faith over fear, hope over panic, and to remember that while we don't know what tomorrow holds, God always does.
