399 - Trusting God In Times Of Struggle with Rebekah Middleton

You know, being a Christian doesn’t mean every day is sunshine and lollipops.  We have the same struggles in our lives as anyone else, and they can lead to heartbreak, anxiety, addiction, and all of the other negative outcomes you can think of.  What separates the Christian from everybody else, however, is our faith and belief that we have a loving God looking out for us who can help us through these dark times and troubles.  That doesn’t mean that He will always snap His fingers and make our problems disappear.  It means that He will comfort us, walk with us, guide us to other people who can provide the help we need, and be there for us to turn to with whatever we’re facing.  As my guest on this episode of the Thriving Christian Artist, Rebekah Middleton, was trying to find her place in the art world and the world altogether, she was also struggling with eating disorders.  And one of the issues that this struggle brought about was a tendency to want to keep her art hidden away from the world just as she was coming into her own as an artist.  So how has she been able to get through this painful part of her life and embrace God’s calling?  Take a listen to this episode of the podcast to hear Rebekah’s inspiring story.  And be sure to take a look at her website and social media to see what she’s been up to!  https://www.rebekahmiddleton.com/https://www.instagram.com/rebekah_middleton/ https://www.facebook.com/RebekahMiddletonArt/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWKly4jeBsoL67DfxBETQUA When you’re ready to stop striving and start thriving, here are 3 other ways I can help: 1️⃣  Get my FREE Guide, “5 Biggest Misconceptions About Prophetic Art”  Wondering how to create your art with God or what prophetic art is all about?  Grab my free guide and make sure you’re not stuck in any of these misconceptions about prophetic art!  Download here ➡️ https://thrive.matttommeymentoring.com/5-biggest-misconceptions-about-prophetic-art2️⃣ Learn a New Framework for Living: Watch this free 60-minute, on-demand workshop I created called “How to Start Thriving as the Artist God Created You to Be,” where I share a simple, Kingdom-based framework for living that anyone can use starting today.
