Chaundel Holladay: Choosing God’s Path Over Our Own means acknowledging our limits. Chaundel shares how her own journey included saying “yes” to too much—only to realize it wasn’t always obedience. “Sometimes, helping everyone isn’t humility—it’s pride dressed up as purpose,” she says.
Even Jesus didn’t heal everyone. That truth freed Chaundel to rest in God’s leading, not her own efforts.
