Summary

Whereas many have evacuated and fled her adopted nation as it has imploded violently in the last few years, Sarah (name changed for security reasons) has chosen to stay. It’s been costly to say yes to God, but she has no regrets as she loves and cares for society’s most vulnerable. If you want to be connected to Sarah’s work, please email me as it is highly sensitive. --- Choose Life in 2023: https://www.greatlakesoutreach.org/people/simon-guillebaud/choose-life-2023/?utm_source=inspired_description&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=inspired&utm_id=inspired (greatlakesoutreach.org/chooselife) Support us: https://www.greatlakesoutreach.org/get-involved/inspired-give/?utm_source=inspired_description&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=inspired&utm_id=inspired (greatlakesoutreach.org/inspired) If you'd like to receive a weekly podcast episode link that you can share with your friends on WhatsApp, click this link to join the group with ease: https://www.simonguillebaud.com/inspired-podcast/#whatsapp (greatlakesoutreach.org/whatsapp) Or sign up for a weekly email notification of new episodes: https://www.simonguillebaud.com/inspired-podcast/#email (greatlakesoutreach.org/inspiredemail) For more from Simon visit: https://www.simonguillebaud.com/ (simonguillebaud.com) --- Produced by Great Lakes Outreach - Transforming Burundi and Beyond: https://www.greatlakesoutreach.org/?utm_source=inspired_description&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=inspired&utm_id=inspired (greatlakesoutreach.org)

0:00.0	I remember just thinking about the words of Edmund Hillary when he failed to conquer Everest one time.
0:08.0	He said, you know, the mountain can't grow, but we can.
0:11.0	We might have these points where we face these great difficulties and it feels impossible.
0:17.0	But we can grow, we can mature.
0:19.0	And more than that, we know the living God.
0:21.3	And he is with us.
0:23.0	So who can be against us?
