Faithful Living

Support.

I write this not to get pity or to cause strife, but with the hope that if you find someone in my position, you will be able to better serve them.

Sometimes we need to crack to let in the light, but He will be glorified for He uses our brokenness to create something more beautiful than we could ever imagine.

Is it really about you?

Is it really failure?

Sometimes when we feel God doesn’t answer our prayers, He does. Sometimes we need to keep praying so we can get clarity on what we really desire. Sometimes we wait a little longer than we would like so that when we are answered, we glorify Him even more.

Don’t you dare speak the truth.

Quiet.

Have you ever gotten to the point where you don’t want to speak?
