Having your faith tested can be like going through rigorous athletic training. It means traveling through the layers of emotions, as we learn to trust in what is unseen. It can mean laying up every cherished treasure, like the needs of our loved ones, and then trusting that God will protect them and love them as much as we […]
Sometimes you have to travel down a difficult road, in order to truly appreciate the easier road of breathtaking beauty ahead. An ‘after’ picture is always more spectacular when placed next to the unattractive picture of ‘before’. God will often allow you to go through certain things so that you can experience the fullness of being immersed in your heart’s […]
The altar of trust can be a terrifying place that is both bitter and sweet to taste. To let go of control means facing many emotions. For me, I was afraid of suffering. I was also afraid of losing my children or making a mistake that would cause them harm. Kind of like Abraham’s journey, the Lord had asked […]

Sometimes things are not going to make sense. When we were staying at the hotel in Florida, I got into a situation where my need was greater than any logical way to fix. My bill at the hotel was nearly $3000 and at this hotel, I was able to delay paying it in full until it was time to […]
Before I started to lean on God for supernatural provision, He would show me dreams of being on a super high bridge.
