Congratulations. Your gift of a new day is here. Ready to live it big. You're listening to the Big Life

Devotional podcast. Now, here's Pamela to get you fired up for all God has available for you today.

Well, good morning, beautiful. Welcome to a brand new day of life. Happy Friday, my friends. What a

beautiful day it is to get to be alive. And today's a really special day. It's actually opening day

of our Big Life Adventure Ranch Retreat. Y'all, I am in Oklahoma. I'm here with my leaders.

And we're ready to get this started, right girls? Woo!

Good morning.

The title of today's episode of the Big Life Devotional podcast is Just Add Water.

Have harsh conditions caused you to put living on hold? Are you kind of just waiting for more favorable

circumstances to show back up for your life? Is your plan to start really living your life

once these fires are kind of put out and the smoke has cleared. Girl, don't you know that

you're actually made to survive this storm? You're built for tough times. You're like a four-wheel

drive truck with big mudden tires. You can get through this, honey, because you were designed for times like this.

If you should choose to lay low and wait for another day, just know your life is not waiting

for you. Your life's not going to wait for you. As days pass opportunities pass with them and they will not come

back around for you to grab them again it's now living is here you don't have to wait for more perfect days

to show up and use what God has put in you.

But those hard times cause us to let dreams go stale. Let talents go dormant. Let hopes fade.

Have we forgotten we are more than conquerors through Christ Jesus. That's in your Bible.

So that means we're made for this battle.

We're built for less than perfect conditions.

You are fully equipped for the specific hardship you face.
