A Cup of Gratitude

This week I speak with Andrea Brown, who is a wife, mother, aspiring author, the writer behind TheOneThing1, and the host of a podcast called Seed For The Soul. Yet, believes her most crucial position she’s been given is as a daughter of God, and it has become her passion and delight to share the transformative power of Jesus. A believer in Jesus for many years. She struggled in the faith because she couldn’t relinquish legalism rooted in mixing God’s law and grace. She, much like the believers in the church of Galatia, living a life trapped in Romans chapter seven. However, everything changed when she moved into Romans chapter 8, “There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death.” Romans‬ ‭8‬:‭1‬-‭2‬. ‭Oh, these verses were music to my ears and brought tranquility to my soul. When she believed the Gospel, specifically that grace and truth came through Jesus Christ (John 1:17), and by His blood, He declared me righteous in Him (2 Corinthians 5:21, Romans 1:17) before the Father, everything changed. Since then, she has continued to fall in love with Jesus, which has led her to write and speak about His finished work because it unveils the heart of the Father and his unfailing love for humanity. She’s passionate about sharing her journey and seeing others set free from every bondage. Her heart, writing, and speaking are for the glory of Jesus so that many will be saved and walk in victory by practically exercising their God-given authority in Christ alone. We look at her childhood up to the present to find the beautiful thread of Jesus in her life. You won’t want to miss this encouraging episode!
