Do you trust God, even when things don't make sense? Abigail Dodd says,

I have just seen massive, unexpected grace in the hardest places. I worried, is this going to make

my kids' life too hard? Is this going to ruin their lives? And what God has shown me is,

you don't understand my ways, Abigail.

This is the Revive Our Hearts podcast with Nancy DeMoss Walgamut, author of Lies, Women Believe,

and the truth that sets them free. For May 7th, 2021, I'manna Gras. Well, Mother's Day is just around the corner.

And today we're going to hear a touching story from a mother's heart.

Now, whether you have children of your own or not, I think we'd all agree that life seldom goes the way we plan.

So the question is, when God's plans are different from our own, how do we respond?

Well, three of my very dear friends, Mary Cassian, my co-host Anna Gresh, and Abigail Dodds

have been talking over the last couple of days about womanhood and God's design.

It's a really important topic given the way that our world is thinking about these things these days.

So if you missed any part of that conversation or you'd like to hear it again, you can listen on the Reviver Our Hearts app,

or you can find the audio and the transcript at Revive Our Hearts.com.

Also at our website, you can order a copy of Abigail's excellent book, Atypical Woman.

The subtitle is free, whole, and called in Christ.

That book by Abigail Dodds is available in the Revive Our Hearts Resource Center that you can access at revive our hearts.com. To make it easier for you to find,

there's a link to that book in the transcript of today's program. Today, Abigail is sharing a personal

glimpse of how being a mother of a special needs child

has helped her to see God's faithfulness in a whole new light.

Let's listen.

You have a house full of children, Abigail.
