Hope Smiling Brightly with Amber Dawn Pearce

My entire life I felt like I didn't really know how to receive personal revelation. I knew it was possible but I was clearly missing something. I started on a journey with the determination to hear the Spirit more frequently and more clearly.  In the process God taught me 8 things that have transformed my ability to hear Him. I have gone from wondering if God was listening to hearing Him every single day.  I am now confident in my ability to seek and hear God's word for me as I still seek to increase my capacity to receive personal revelation every day. In this episode I share the 8 things God taught me and pray it blesses you like it blessed me!

How can two people be a part of the same church, doing the same things every day but one feels joy and the other feels burden? I know because I have been both people.
I've recently seen a trend where the solution is to live the gospel according to our own standard. Keep what suits us and leave behind the rest. But I would like to suggest that there is another solution that will bring even more joy!
In this episode I share my journey in how I went from living the gospel of burden to living the gospel of JOY and the priceless principles I learned along the way. I hope it helps you or anyone you know who is feeling overwhelmed in the effort to measure up.

Questions to ask God:
What have I got wrong about me?  What I have I got wrong about you?

I get asked all the time how I figured out what God was calling me to do. As God has recently thrown me another curve ball concerning what He wants for me and this podcast I thought it would be the perfect time to share my journey and the valuable principles I've learned along the way.  Though our calls may be different I think you will find value in what I share and be able use it to discover what God wants for you!

Questions to ask God:
What do I need to know about myself that will help me take on a sense of purpose so stunning that I will never be the same again?

What do you want for me?

One of my favorite things to do in December is ready short, heart warming Christmas stories. 20 years ago God gave me a true Christmas story of my own and for this Christmas I decided it was time to tell it.  We often think of the miracle of a child coming into the world but I learned that a child of God leaving this world can be just as miraculous. My brother passed unexpectedly on Christmas day 20 years ago and the mercies that accompanied that day are undeniable. Bring tissues and enjoy this story that will remind you of the greatest gift we enjoy because of Christmas.Follow me on all social media platforms

I used to feel so frustrated when someone would tell me to "just give your burden to the Lord."  It sounded easy enough, but I had no idea how to do it. When I asked anyone to tell me how, I was never given a clear, actionable answer. Then the Holy Spirit answered my question. From that time I have been able to overcome the fear, worry, anxiety, depression that plagued me. In this episode I share what the Spirit taught me and I truly hope it helps others experience the relief of being able to give burdens to the Lord.
