QUOTES FROM TODAY’S EPISODE

As He corrects me, He’s bringing me forward.

Shea Watson, The Pantry Podcast, How to Be the Best Disciple

I realized in that moment why I’m so tough on quitting. When I was a kid I was allowed to quit. I had so much anxiety when I failed, when I didn’t get it right instantly, when I just didn’t know what to do from the jump, that I would beg to quit when I got my first correction.

Michelle Watson, The Pantry Podcast, How to Be the Best Disciple

In the harder moments of my walk, in the more embarrassing moments, in the shame-filled moments…God comes to you and He corrects you, but He picks you back up as He corrects you, He puts you on the solid rock and He says, “I’m doing this so that you can be a partaker of my holiness. I’m doing this so that you can yield the peaceable fruit of righteousness in your life moving forward with others, with those people around you. And that’s invaluable.
