Key Takeaways:

The “wilderness” isn’t punishment or exile—it’s a place of sacred preparation and deeper intimacy with God.
We cling to safety, control, or past identities out of fear, but true calling requires risky release and radical trust.
Surrendering what’s “good” makes room for God’s best and strengthens your core identity as God’s beloved.
God’s new thing for you isn’t just an evolution of the old, but something entirely fresh—be open to letting go of familiar patterns!
True submission isn’t loss of power; it’s a loving invitation to come under God’s greater mission and purpose.
Even in uncertainty and discomfort, God’s voice can bring clarity, direction, and freedom.
