In this episode of Say Goodbye and Imagine, Rose Ann transitions from the 12 Core Concepts into a brand-new exploration of godly wisdom—how Scripture guides our choices, shapes our mindset, and strengthens our self-control.

Rose Ann shares the behind-the-scenes process of how her devotional writings begin: through daily Bible reading, reflection, and noticing what God highlights in His Word. Today's insight comes from Genesis 4:7, a passage where God gently warns Cain that sin is crouching at the door—but also affirms that Cain has the power to subdue it.

This episode dives into:

1. Why this moment in Genesis reveals a patient and loving God
2. How unchecked emotions (like anger) open the door to life-interfering behaviors
3. The Hebrew imagery of sin "crouching" like a predator
4. How this connects to 1 Peter 5:8 and moments of temptation
5. Why godly decision making begins with recognizing that the Holy Spirit empowers us to choose what is right
6. How renewed neural pathways and spiritual self-control work together

Rose Ann also shares her heart behind her next devotional project on godly wisdom and invites listeners to participate by sending the Scriptures that have shaped their own decision-making journey.

She closes with a prayer from her devotional draft and a reminder that resources for substance or behavior struggles are available at www.choosefreedom.today.
