Facing a lot of unknowns in life can be hard. But if we had all the blanks filled in, we would explain away God’s part in our story.
God doesn’t want to be explained away. He wants to be invited in. He wants us to make room for His additions to our story... room for Him.
Watching Virgin River and saving holiday recipes on Pinterest that I’ll never make while holding a napping baby is a picture perfect Sunday in my book.
As a parent to athletes:
I have to constantly remind myself, if I get more excited about my child making a 3-pointer, scoring a goal, or landing on a team - than I do about them telling their friends about Jesus or serving in the church…
It’s time to readjust my priorities.
Here’s one thing I always know for certain … what the enemy meant for evil God will use for good.
I will trust in God. Serve God. And even in the darkest nights when I still cry, I will find rest in the light of his love. Then tomorrow, I’ll get up and do it all again.
