The Devoted Dreamers Podcast

Whether you have a dream in your heart or aren’t sure what God might be calling you to, The Devoted Dreamers Podcast will encourage you on the journey. This space is dedicated to sharing stories every week of women who are following Jesus and pursuing their God-given gifts in beautifully imperfect ways. You’ll hear about the fears and challenges that threaten their dreams as well as the joy, courage and confidence that comes from following Jesus even in the unexpected…especially in the unexpected.

I’m your host, Merritt Onsa, and my prayer is that this show will meet you where you are in your walk with God. I hope you will come away from the podcast each week with encouragement to begin pursuing your own dreams even when you still feel flawed, imperfect, unfinished and not ready. Because if you wait until you are perfect, you will never take the first step. Join us!

110 || [SOLO] You Have Great Value and Worth || Merritt Onsa

Feb 20, 2019


This solo episode is tied directly to my last solo episode (#107, so go listen if you haven’t already). In this one I’m talking about our value and worth because we are daughters of the Most High King.

You’ll hear a few more bits of my story prior to becoming a Christian, and then even after Jesus rescued me, about how I rested my value on something that was ultimately going to fail me.

I share the best response I ever got from a Christian man who knew he couldn’t bear the weight of my identity on his back.

And I talk a bit about what’s going on my world right now that has revealed to me that I am, yet again, struggling to remember that my security is in Christ.

You also have a homework assignment after this one. It’s just a little journaling, so whether that practice is new to you or you have stacks of journals laying around, I hope you will plan for some alone time after listening to this one. I provide a few journaling prompts as well as tips on how to journal if you’ve never done it before.

You’ll find the show notes, the verses I mentioned, and links to the past episodes I talked about, here: http://www.merrittonsa.com/podcast/110

Journaling Homework:

What is it that you are trying to rest your value and worth in besides Jesus?

What is it that, if you lost it, would make you feel sick to your stomach or cause you to forget that there’s any good thing in your life?

What would feel like the end for you if you lost it? Like death might seem sweeter than enduring the loss of this thing you treasure?
