God’s Timing Requires Patience
I am not patient. It is a fruit of the Spirit that I continue to struggle to cultivate.
God of the Impossible
There was no hope that I could ever fix this perilous situation. What does a person do when the pain of two people you love has come to a place of impossible reconciliation?
An Exercise of Facing Fears
A student from my school posted a threat online that they would shoot up our school last Tuesday. I learned about it on Monday. The following 24 hours tested my ability to focus on God, and the students He put in my charge, rather than focusing on the overwhelming fear.
Help When Sinking
Several decades later, I still remember it like it was yesterday.... In young, naive enthusiasm I never stopped to consider what the consequences might be if I just ran and jumped into the pool.
God’s Quiet Whisper
There was even a time when the devil got in my head and told me to quit because I just couldn’t do it. During these struggles, I would cry out to God for help, but it felt like He wasn’t there.
When Things Don’t Make Sense
For me, following God’s call made sense. But now, fast forward nine months into that decision, and things are appearing to be a little more confusing.
