Do you ever feel like you have to “get it together” before you can come to God?

When you picture God looking at you… does He feel safe—or slightly disappointed?

Have you been quietly carrying a fear of God that feels more like dread than peace?

In this episode, I’m breaking down what the fear of the Lord actually means in Scripture—so you can stop living in quiet dread and start experiencing real peace, trust, and connection with God.

We’re talking about the subtle, often unspoken fear many women carry in their faith—the belief that God is conditional, distant, or keeping score. And we’re calling it what it is: not truth, but a wound.

Inside this episode, you’ll learn:

• The difference between biblical fear (awe, reverence, wonder) and fear rooted in anxiety
• How spiritual environments can shape a distorted view of God without you realizing it
• Why the God you’ve been afraid of may not be the God of Scripture at all
• How to begin healing your view of God through biblical truth, prayer, and honest reflection
• Simple, practical steps to start trusting God again—even if your faith feels fragile

If you’ve been searching for biblical encouragement, healing scriptures for the mind, or Bible verses about anxiety and fear, this episode will meet you right where you are.

This is about more than understanding God—it’s about finally feeling safe with Him.
