Why Don't You Feel Connected to God? (It May Not Be What You Think)

If you’ve ever felt like everyone else connects with God more naturally than you do, you’re not alone. A lot of women genuinely love God, but quietly assume they’re “bad” at devotional life because traditional rhythms don’t seem to fit them naturally. But maybe the problem isn’t that you’re doing relationship with God wrong. Maybe you’ve just been trying to relate to Him the way someone else does.

God created people intentionally different. Some women come alive through deep study and curiosity. Others notice Him most through beauty, creativity, nature, journaling, movement, or quiet reflection. And learning how you naturally relate with God can remove so much unnecessary shame from devotional life.

In this conversation, we’re talking about spiritual rhythms, personality, seasons, and the freedom that comes when you stop forcing someone else’s formula to fit your life.
