Walk with God When Your Yes Costs You: Surrendering Big Emotions and Choosing Obedience with Marchette

Walk with God through the messy middle of doubt, big emotions, and obedience that feels like it benefits everyone but you. In this heart-to-heart conversation, Marchette shares what it looked like to say yes to the Lord even while questioning, wrestling, and feeling the weight of rejection.

She talks about a moment from just a few weeks ago when she sensed God calling her to act, then immediately felt the pull of fear, people-pleasing, and second-guessing. And in the middle of that back-and-forth, God met her in Scripture. Esther's courage helped her see what obedience can cost, and why fearing God matters more than fearing people. Later, when rejection felt heavy, she found herself searching the Bible for "cleansing of the temple" and seeing Jesus stay focused on His mission even while being rejected.

We also spend time in Haggai, where God speaks to Zerubbabel and Joshua about building the temple. That passage becomes a mirror for anyone who's stuck staring at the past, grieving what used to be, or despising small beginnings. Marchette shares how God has been shifting her perspective from "What did I lose back then?" to "What is God doing right now?"

This episode is for the woman who loves Jesus but feels tired, unsure, or emotionally overwhelmed. We talk about practical spirituality too, like what surrender looks like in real life: honest prayers, showing up as a daughter to a good Father, opening the Bible when you do not have words, and trusting that God meets you in the quiet.

And if you need a gentle push to keep going, Marchette points to Galatians 6 and reminds us not to grow weary in doing good. God sees your obedience. He sees your yes. And He is still with you in it.
