Introduction To The Encouragement For Real Life Podcast

by | Aug 3, 2021 | Podcast

Hi Friend! We’re tossing confetti over here because this is the launch episode–the introduction–for the Encouragement for Real Life podcast!!

Yes! I’ve started a podcast! But, this isn’t any ordinary podcast, no. This podcast is focused on equipping us with encouragement for our real lives right now.

Because some days we could use a little extra encouragement, right?

We both know real life is a mixture of blessings and blunders, celebrations and sadness, excitement and apathy. It’s a combination of memory-making moments and moments we’d rather forget. And it’s a blend of triumphs and failures, happiness and heartaches, and hope and discouragement.

Real life isn’t always pretty and it’s not always tied up with a shiny red bow.

It’s not pretend or fake, and it’s not a dress rehearsal. You and I don’t get a second chance to live these days over.

This is why the Encouragement for Real Life podcast exists.

To encourage us for real life right now.

I pray you find the encouragement you didn’t know you needed, the hope you long for, the chuckle to lighten your spirit, and the joy that brings a lift to your step each week as you listen in. The episodes are short enough to fit into your full, real life.

You’ll find personal life-impacting stories, helpful life tips and tricks, timely inspiration, Biblical insight, and a fresh perspective, combined with a light-hearted tone to encourage your heart and put a lift in your step.

Until next time, stay encouraged, friend.

So many women are waiting for the right time—for more clarity, less chaos, or a better version of themselves.

But friend, the abundant life isn’t on hold until things are perfect. God does some of His best work in the middle of the mess. Your right now is the perfect place to begin.

What’s one small way you can embrace your right now today?

I'm @julielefebure, and I'm here to help you live the abundant life Jesus came to give you. Follow for more.

I woke in awe today because in those first eye-opening moments, I pondered the truth of Easter. 

Jesus defeated death... for me. For me.

Why? How? All the things I've done, said, thought... I am undeserving of this kind of gift.

But I guess that's the point, isn't it? If I deserved it, it wouldn't mean as much as it does today. He rose from the grave because I didn't deserve it. He rose from the grave, so someday I will, too. In the meantime, because I believe in this truth, I get to live in the hope of eternal life with Him. Forever. 

What a hope. What a love. What a Savior.

Today's the day we draw a line in the sand and say,
Aren't you grateful that God never gets distracted? 🙋‍♀️

He's always willing to help us when we do.

Don't try to battle today's distractions on your own. Ask God to help you overcome them. 

This is a secret to living an abundant life. 🙇‍♀️

Am I the only one?

Distraction doesn’t always show up loud and obvious.
Sometimes it’s subtle.
Convenient.
Even well-intentioned.

But here’s the truth:
if the enemy of our souls can't destroy us—he will do all he can to distract us.

Let’s return.
Refocus.
Reopen the Word.
God’s not mad at us—we’re just one “Jesus, I am back” away from real connection.
