Episode 420 // Breakthrough in the Wait: Lessons from Mary’s Obedience [Bible Study and Devotional]

Hey Sis, Happy Monday! 🎙️

Today on Circle Time for the Soul, we’re diving into the beauty of waiting on God—especially during the holiday season when it’s easy to get caught up in the hustle.

💡 Key Thought: The Christmas season reminds us that the greatest breakthroughs happen when we stop trying to control everything and start trusting God’s promises.

📝 Episode Highlights:

Biblical Affirmation: “I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me” (Galatians 2:20). This week, we surrender our need to control people, time, and circumstances to God.
Devotional Study: Day 1 of 10 Days of Christmas Truths to Live All Year introduces us to Mary’s bold faith. Her story teaches us:
1️⃣ God doesn’t use earthly resumes—He looks at our faith.
2️⃣ Obedience to God may not be easy, but it’s always worth it.
Scripture Focus: 1 Corinthians 1:26-31—a powerful reminder that God works through
