It is possible to grow deeper with God in a heartbreaking season by running toward Him instead of away from Him. When we do, we realize we are never alone.
Allowing God to guide our path not only gives us comfort, but often produces unexpected miracles along the way.
The words stuck with me when I hit “deactivate,” and the digital platform disappeared. It rang in my heart when I sent the last email to members. It comforted me in the immediate aftermath when I wondered why God would ask me to step out in faith if He knew it would end this way, and if my creative dreams would always lead to this.
I imagined my Sabbath year would feel like spring, a lighthearted, happy skipping through fields of wildflowers with Jesus and napping by still waters in green pastures. That wasn’t what God had in mind. It turned out to be a full year of a sweltering Louisiana August.
Waiting.
It can be one of the most difficult places to be.
It’s the space between the prayer and the promise.
Between the asking and the answering.
Between what we had hoped for and what we currently hold.
