  • How to Trust God With Everything in Our Lives
    Trust is a hard thing. It’s difficult for some people to trust those closest to them, even without any fault to their name. I can see how it would feel even more difficult to trust a big God with control over everything. But it doesn’t have to be difficult if we have a relationship with God & know He is trustworthy.Don’t get me wrong, even people that KNOW God, know His character, and know He only wants to help us can struggle to trust Him in some areas of their lives.We get caught up in fear & worry that He doesn’t know what we want, what we need & what WE think is best. But He does. He knows all these things & more that we don’t know & can’t know right now. I’m going to give you some tips on how to trust God with everything in your life, but before that, I want you to know WHY it’s important to trust Him with everything.God Knows Everything & Has Perfect WisdomIsaiah 40:28, “Have you never heard? Have you never understood? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of all the earth. He never grows weak or weary. No one can measure the depths of his understanding.”God is the Most Faithful 2 Timothy 2:13, “If we are unfaithful, he remains faithful, for he cannot deny who he is.”God Loves You the Most1 Peter 5:7, “Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.”Here are my 4 tips on How to Trust God With Everything in Our Lives:Know Who God Is Know His character. Cultivate a relationship with Him. Understand how faithful He is, and how much He loves us.Psalm 9:10, “Those who know your names trust in you, for you, O Lord, do not abandon those who search for you.”Reflect On His Faithfulness Remind yourself when He was there to protect you, to help you & to give you guidance & understanding. Even if you didn’t attribute it to God back then but KNOW it WAS Him.2 Thessalonians 3:3, “But the Lord is faithful; he will strengthen you and guard you from the evil one.”Become More Patient In His Timing God plans things better than we ever could.  He knows better than us.Ecclesiastes 3:11, “Yet God has made everything beautiful for its own time. He has planted eternity in the human heart, but even so, people cannot see the whole scope of God’s work from beginning to end.”Do What God & the Bible Tells You to Do Spend time in the Word to know all the things God wanted us to know & hold close to our hearts, then OBEY the principles & way of life it tells you to do.When God tells you to do something, despite how out of place it may sound to YOU, do it. Proverbs 3:5-6, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.”Support the showWatch the Video Version of RPG: https://www.youtube.com/@realpositivegirl/podcastsBuy the Planner on AMAZON!: https://amzn.to/3WwthT2Visit me on Instagram or TikTok: @sabrinajoyperozzoEmail Me: [email protected]

  • He Knows Best - Letting Go of Control & Letting God Move
    It sounds good to be in control, right? You are making sure everything is going well around you, doing your best to help others be their best and making sure you are controlling yourself, too.Plus, people talk about how important it is to have self-control, so control MUST be a good thing. Right?It’s really not and believing you can control everything around you is a fallacy.Yes, it’s important to control ourselves, like our attitudes, actions & behaviors, but that’s it. We LITERALLY cannot control anything else but ourselves. And even the plans we make for ourselves, we can’t control if those things work out because it’s something outside of ourselves.But we THINK we CAN control everything around us and that gets us in trouble.We can be troubled emotionally and sometimes financially and with others.You push and push and push for things to happen that you want or believe should happen but don’t realize it’s much easier to rely on God to manage things. But you’re worried God doesn’t know what you want (He does) and that it won’t happen when you want it if you leave it to Him (it might not but only because He knows the best timing), and if you DO leave it to Him, you won’t get the credit.Here are 5 reasons why we need to let go of all ideas of control and surrender our lives to God:We Don’t Know EverythingThe understanding we have about the world is VERY limited. We don’t know as much as we think we know. Proverbs 3:5-6, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.”Feeling Anxious & Worried Isn’t FunWouldn’t it be nice if we didn’t have to worry anymore? That’s what can happen (for the most part) if we allow God to handle everything in our lives. 1 Peter 5:7, “Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.”We Should Be Trusting God With EverythingHe is our Heavenly Father and we should trust Him like He is. Romans 8:28, “And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them.”It’s Never Us AnywayEverything that happens in life is because of God. We think it’s in our own abilities, but it’s not. And the sooner we recognize this, the easier it will be to surrender everything to God and no longer feel the need to try to control everything.Proverbs 16:9, “We can make our plans, but the Lord determines our steps.”God Knows Everything & Controls EverythingDespite what you might think, He’s got all the control. We think we have control because God allows us free will to either make the choice to surrender to Him in faith & trust, or to get in our own ways and struggle a bit more. Jeremiah 29:11, “’For I know the plans I have for you,’ says the Lord. ‘They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.’”Support the showWatch the Video Version of RPG: https://www.youtube.com/@realpositivegirl/podcastsBuy the Planner on AMAZON!: https://amzn.to/3WwthT2Visit me on Instagram or TikTok: @sabrinajoyperozzoEmail Me: [email protected]

  • You're Really Important to God - Your Differences Matter
    I know I’m not the only one that has ever felt less than or not as great in what I do or that I don’t matter. And that’s why I am doing this episode today.Yet another perfect moment of God telling me what I should talk about while driving home today. And it all came about on a verse I had read earlier in the day that really hit me.1 Corinthians 12:14-22, “Yes, the body has many different parts, not just one part. If the foot says, “I am not a part of the body because I am not a hand,” that does not make it any less a part of the body. And if the ear says, “I am not part of the body because I am not an eye,” would that make it any less a part of the body? If the whole body were an eye, how would you hear? Or if your whole body were an ear, how would you smell anything? But our bodies have many parts, and God has put each part just where he wants it. How strange a body would be if it had only one part! Yes, there are many parts, but only one body. The eye can never say to the hand, “I don’t need you.” The head can’t say to the feet, “I don’t need you.” In fact, some parts of the body that seem weakest and least important are actually the most necessary.”I read it and started thinking about how so many of us need to hear this and understand why it’s bad to exclude others and how important each one of us is to God and to the community & activities He put us in.We REALLY matter. We just need to believe this truth & trust that no matter how low we feel when measured up to others, who we are and what we do matters to the One that matters most.Let me tell you how this is true.Here are 5 big ways that God shows us how really important we are to Him:He Created UsGenesis 1:27, “So God created human beings in his own image. In the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.”He Blessed Us With Talents & Giftings to Share With Others1 Corinthians 12: 7, “A spiritual gift is given to each of us so we can help each other.”He Sent His Son to Save UsGod made the ultimate sacrifice to bind us to Him forever.1 John 4:9-10, “God showed how much he loved us by sending his one and only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through him. This is real love-not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins.”2 Corinthians 5:21, “For God made Christ, who never sinned, to be the offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with God through Christ.”He’s Always There When We Need HimPrayer is the key here. He is only a prayer away.Psalm 46:1, “God is our refuge and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble.”He Tells Us He Loves Us All the TimeJeremiah 31:3, “Long ago the Lord said to Israel: ‘I have loved you, my people, with an everlasting love. With unfailing love I have drawn you to myself.’”Isaiah 41:10, “Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.”Support the showWatch the Video Version of RPG: https://www.youtube.com/@realpositivegirl/podcastsBuy the Planner on AMAZON!: https://amzn.to/3WwthT2Visit me on Instagram or TikTok: @sabrinajoyperozzoEmail Me: [email protected]

  • Being a Role Model Who Reflects Christ - Positive Influence
    We have the opportunity to be impactful everywhere we go.The Bible puts a big emphasis on being a positive example to others, as we are all called to be a light in the world to draw as many people as possible to Christ. As Christ-followers, we must live a life that reflects who He is, meaning His character & His love. We must live in a way that reflects who God is, and the teachings of His word, demonstrate integrity & love to others, and lead with righteousness in our actions & reactions with others. It should be our goal to imitate Christ in everything we do.You might want a partner who has strong faith & dependence on God but lack that in yourself. You may want more people to be kind & compassionate to you, but are you TRULY giving that to others? Maybe you want certain people to spend more time with you, but if you aren’t making an effort to be with them first, you aren’t giving what you’re asking for.The best thing we can do is continue to cultivate a deeper relationship with Christ, to better understand what He’s calling us to do & better know His character that we are working to reflect every day.Here are 5 tips of How to Be a Better Reflection of Christ & Positive Influence On Others:Live According to God’s Word Make sure your life & everything you do is aligned with God’s will for you.James 1:22, “But don’t just listen to God’s word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves.”Serve Others with Humility Doing as Christ did, serve others with selflessness & humility while finding ways to use the talents & gifts God has blessed you with to help & uplift others.Matthew 23:11-12, “The greatest among you must be a servant. But those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”Develop & Exhibit the Fruits of the Spirit Allow the Holy Spirit to fill you with: Love, Joy, Peace Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness & Self-Control.Galatians 5:22-23Be Authentic & Genuine in Everything You Do Ephesians 4:23-25, “Instead, let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes. Put on your new nature, created to be like God-truly righteous and holy. So stop telling lies, Let us tell our neighbors the truth, for we are all parts of the same body.”Lead Others to Christ 2 Corinthians 5:20, “So we are Christ’s ambassadors; God is making his appeal through us. We speak for Christ when we plead, ‘Come back to God!’”Matthew 28:19-20, “’Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. An be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.’”Support the showWatch the Video Version of RPG: https://www.youtube.com/@realpositivegirl/podcastsBuy the Planner on AMAZON!: https://amzn.to/3WwthT2Visit me on Instagram or TikTok: @sabrinajoyperozzoEmail Me: [email protected]

  • Who Are Your Friends? - Evaluate Who Influences You
    I want to share some questions with you today on what to consider when evaluating your current friendships and moving into new ones. But first, please know that I am NOT saying we cannot be friends with people that aren’t at the same spiritual level or maturity that we are or even people that don’t know God yet. It’s more a matter of who you allow to INFLUENCE you in life. And often, the people we spend the most time with happen to influence who we are & how we live our lives quite a lot.But even Jesus spent time with some unsavory people who later called Him master. But the biggest thing we need to remember with Jesus is He was STILL able to have an unwavering commitment to righteousness & NEVER compromised His own values or committed a sin. Jesus had a steady focus on what He was here to do & not get caught-up, but we as fallen people cannot match that level or righteousness. We surrender our lives to God every single day to more and more mirror the image of Christ, but we still suffer from downfalls. So we have to be more careful than Jesus needed to be.Luke 5:31-32, “Jesus answered them, ‘Healthy people don’t need a doctor-sick people do. I have come to call not those who think they are righteous, but those who know they are sinners and need to repent.’”Here are 5 Questions I would ask myself when reviewing my current & future friendships to determine how viable they are:Are Your Friends a Reflection on Who You Are Working to Be? Are your friends similarly working daily to adopt the attitude of Christ?Proverbs 13:20, “ Walk with the wise and become wise; associate with fools and get in trouble.”Do Your Friends Challenge & Support You? Are you able to be yourself around them?Proverbs 27:17, “As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend.”Do Your Friends Live to Please the World or God? Who are they trying to impress?Romans 12:2, “Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.”Are Your Friend Respectful of Your Values & Beliefs? Even if there is a difference of opinion (Christian or not), is respect still present there?Colossians 3:16-17, “Let the message about Christ, in all its richness, fill your lives. Teach and counsel each other with all the wisdom he gives. Sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs to God with thankful hearts. And whatever you do or say, do it as a representative of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through him to God the Father."Are Your Friends People God Wants You to Have in Your Life? Have you prayed about it? 2 Corinthians 6:17, “Therefore, come out from among unbelievers, and separate yourselves from them, says the Lord. Don’t touch their filthy things, and I will welcome you.”2 Cor 6:17 (GW), "The Lord says, “Get away from unbelievers. Separate yourselves from them. Have nothing to do with anything unclean. Then I will welcome you.”Support the showWatch the Video Version of RPG: https://www.youtube.com/@realpositivegirl/podcastsBuy the Planner on AMAZON!: https://amzn.to/3WwthT2Visit me on Instagram or TikTok: @sabrinajoyperozzoEmail Me: [email protected]
