Hey there. Welcome to the Sister Circle podcast. I'm your host, Crystal Evans Hurst. In every

at least I have in the past as if my life is not going to add up to anything because I don't see

how the random parts fit together. We feel like our plans are failing or the unexpected is happening

too often. But what I've learned is that God can use any and everything that happens in your life
