As I sit here in a semi-truck waiting for bridge beams to show up, I can't help but be overwhelmed by His faithfulness. Looking back, I realize all I had to do was wait another day. I had to get through that Saturday that seemed so still, so quiet, and so lonely. If I had quit there, I never would have seen what God was preparing on the other side. 10/22/26
One thing that has surprised me about myself is how frustrated I can become due to the fear, grief, or suffering I am experiencing. I had convinced my heart and mind that I shouldn’t give into feeling those things because faith doesn’t operate like that. 4/23/26
So, even amidst such evil and this unrighteous grand assault, we are witnessing incredible growth as the Gospel is being preached more boldly and more clearly than it has been in quite some time. Of course, any logical thinker is then forced to ask the simple question, “Why?” 10/9/25
One thing that has surprised me about myself is how frustrated I can become due to the fear, grief, or suffering I am experiencing. I had convinced my heart and mind that I shouldn’t give into feeling those things because faith doesn’t operate like that. That’s not true, however. Faith isn’t fearless, and what matters in this struggle is how we address the fear we naturally experience. It’s an opportunity to trust the Lord with all that we are and all that we have.
