The Post-It Note That Almost Made Me Lose My Self-Control | Faith Unfiltered Life

<p>The Faith Unfiltered Life team discuss self-control as a fruit of the Spirit, addressing the frustration of repeated promises to God, unanswered prayers for change, and the lie that lack of discipline cancels God’s purpose. They share “Post-It Note moments,” including Leon finding a note on his truck about parking too close and choosing not to retaliate by using a 10-second pause, accountability to God, and concern for his testimony. Others recount self-control failures with road rage and a golf-course confrontation, reflecting on conviction, lost opportunities to represent Jesus, and the need to respond rather than react. The episode emphasizes mastering the internal world through Christ, bringing calm to chaos, growing through faith practices, setting boundaries, extending grace, and viewing fruits of the Spirit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness, and self-control—as practical traits for everyone.</p><p><br></p><p>00:00 Why Self Control Hurts</p><p>01:57 Post It Note Trigger</p><p>06:08 Defining Real Self Control</p><p>08:05 Ten Second Pause Tool</p><p>12:03 Share Your Trigger Moments</p><p>12:49 Road Rage Confessions</p><p>16:09 Golf Course Blowup</p><p>21:31 Response Not Reaction</p><p>23:29 ICU Patience Under Fire</p><p>26:41 What Actually Changed</p><p>27:04 Measured Responses Matter</p><p>29:06 Strength Not Weakness</p><p>29:32 When Calm Triggers Heat</p><p>30:45 Healer Mindset Example</p><p>32:29 Growing Into Self Control</p><p>34:12 Fruit of the Spirit Explained</p><p>35:09 Faith Work Bears Fruit</p><p>36:03 Loving Yourself First</p><p>38:31 Bring Calm to Chaos</p><p>40:05 God Speaks Softly</p><p>42:26 Healthy Conflict Habits</p><p>47:00 Grace With Boundaries</p><p>49:09 Share Your Post It Moments</p><p>50:33 For Seekers and Skeptics</p><p>51:21 Final Wrap Up</p>

I Believe in God, But I Don’t Trust Him: Moving from Belief to Surrender | Faith Unfiltered Life

<p>The episode explores the tension between believing in God and actually trusting Him, especially when life is painful, prayers feel unanswered, anxiety rises, or past hurt makes surrender feel unsafe. The hosts discuss why this topic feels “heavy,” how trust can be challenged by personal control issues and human experiences, and how trust often involves inviting God into day-to-day areas, not just the “impossible.” They define belief versus trust through actions, vulnerability, and “dying to self,” share personal examples involving work, parenting, relationships after divorce, miscarriage, finances, and a long journey around sexuality and learning truth. They emphasize waiting without timelines, using scripture (Proverbs 3:5–6, 2 Corinthians 10:5), surrounding yourself with wise support, managing thoughts and feelings, and remembering God’s track record and the hope of eternity.</p><p><br></p><p>00:00 Belief Versus Trust</p><p>02:52 Why Trust Feels Heavy</p><p>04:54 Levels of Trust and Control</p><p>09:07 Defining Belief and Trust</p><p>13:21 Trust Through Parenting</p><p>17:46 Trust After Relationship Hurt</p><p>21:58 Waiting and God’s Timeline</p><p>25:46 Practical Ways to Keep Trusting</p><p>27:47 Inviting God Into Work</p><p>28:57 Sounding Boards And Scripture</p><p>30:41 Old Tricks New Tools</p><p>32:28 Taking Thoughts Captive</p><p>32:46 Control Careers Trust God</p><p>35:45 God Versus Your Feelings</p><p>36:45 Peace In Hard Seasons</p><p>38:02 Faith Mile Markers</p><p>40:50 Faith And Works Together</p><p>41:55 Patience Builds Endurance</p><p>43:42 Healing Eternity Perspective</p><p>49:00 Saying I Dont Know</p><p>49:41 Eternity Starts Now</p><p>50:43 Freedom From Status</p><p>51:33 Wrap Up And Resources<br></p>
