Trusting God’s Timing: Quantum Worth, Miracles on a Plane, and Faith Over Addiction
Episode Overview
- Identify where your trust wobbles most: God’s will, God’s way, or God’s timing.
- When plans fall apart, replace anger with curiosity by asking, “Who violated my boundary?” and whether God might be redirecting you.
- Hold to the motto: things may seem to be failing only because they are being set up to work out in a more miraculous way.
- Use the river-of-abundance visualisation to turn from focusing on losses to facing God as the ongoing source of provision and love.
- Release guilt about imperfect trust, remembering that God knows your heart and meets you in your humanity.
“Things are not working out right now only because they have to work out in a much more miraculous way.”
How do people find strength in their journey to sobriety? This conversation between host Tanya Gioia and returning guest Dr Victoria Rader offers a faith-soaked look at trust, timing, and worth for Christian women facing addiction’s chaos in their homes and hearts. Tanya frames the podcast as a place where “Christian women like you learn to release the weight of fixing and striving” and lean into God’s strength, with humour, boundaries and biblical truth woven through.
Victoria, a quantum personal development teacher and speaker, shares vivid stories that show what it looks like to trust God’s will, God’s way, and God’s timing. You’ll hear her wild Italy trip saga: cancelled events, rerouted flights and a surprise seat change that ended with her praying quietly as a man two seats away began seizing. “I’m here to be a witness to God’s infinite ability to heal.
Show me what to do,” she prayed, later sobbing as she realised she was travelling to speak on the worth of a human soul right after witnessing what she believes was a miracle. She also recalls missing a Brazil training years earlier, only to be redirected to Spain where she met people who became key partners in her life and work.
For Victoria, repeated “airport disasters” have become proof that, as she puts it, “Things are not working out right now only because they have to work out in a much more miraculous way.” The episode closes with a gentle visualisation on God as the source and river of abundance, helping listeners shift from staring at their losses to facing the “upstream” flow of God’s love and provision.
If you’re tired of carrying someone else’s addiction, battling control, or panicking over God’s timing, this honest, faith-filled chat might be the reminder you need that God has never been off schedule. What would change if you trusted that, even in the mess, he is already working miracles you can’t yet see?
