We were coming to understand that the Father uses moments and seasons of brokenness to show us our true condition.

We were experiencing what writer and speaker Catherine Wolfe meant when she said,

perhaps some detours aren't detours at all.

Perhaps they are actually the path, the picture, the plan.

And perhaps most unexpectedly, they can be perfect.

Welcome to the Storytellers Live podcast, where everyday women share stories of hope found in Jesus.

I'm Robin, and I'm here with Katie and Lindy, and we are

your podcast host. It is October, and it is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. And we have Sally's story

today that talks about breast cancer, but also other things. Sally shared her story in our

Homewood community, which is a suburb of Birmingham Birmingham several months ago, but we saved her story

for this month. Absolutely. And while her story is one of breast cancer, it's also really a story

of God's timing being perfect, that he is going to provide you exactly what you need,

exactly when you need it. You're going to hear her reference something called Manna. I love how she does

reference that from the Old Testament, but if you're not familiar with what Manna is, it just was

actually a food that God provided the Israelites when they were in the wilderness, and he just

provided enough for that day. And so you're going to hear her reference that. I wanted you to

recognize that analogy in relation to her story.

Her story is going to encourage you not only in increasing your trust in God's timing, but also in his ability to get you through all of life's trials and sufferings.

And Katie and Robin, for our Patreon insiders today, we have a bonus story from Jessica,

who is one of our storytellers from Oxford, Mississippi, and her story is about the saving love

of God and how he really saved her through a difficult time, and you are not going to want to

miss this story. So if you're not a Patreon insider, you can go to our show notes right now and click on
