Welcome to another transformative episode of the Daily Living for Christ podcast! Today, we take a deeper look at The Four Consents—a powerful framework for embracing humility, surrender, and divine union with God. These four consents—Life and Creation, Growth and Development, Limitation and Diminishment, and Transformation and Union—offer us a path to living freely in God’s love, apart from striving or self-reliance.
What does it mean to truly say yes to God? How does humility free us from both pride and despair? Through biblical insights, the wisdom of The Cloud of Unknowing, and Jesus’ example of self-emptying (kenosis), we uncover how consenting to God’s presence and action in our lives is the very definition of true humility.
In this episode, we’ll explore:
✅ Consent to Life and Creation—Accepting that we are loved and redeemed by grace, not by effort
✅ Consent to Growth and Development—Trusting God’s work within us rather than striving for self-perfection
✅ Consent to Limitation and Diminishment—Releasing control and embracing the freedom of surrender
✅ Consent to Transformation and Union with God—Letting go of all that separates us from divine love
Jesus said, “Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.” (Matthew 11:29). The Four Consents reveal that His yoke is light because it is not about our effort, but our surrender.
