Summary

Brecca Powers, who recently shared at the yearly STL Community Teams retreat, gives insight into how God has taught her over the years to let go of control and trust that His plans are always better. Her journey of motherhood, infertility, and adoption will point you to the incredible need we have as Believers… the need to trust God and know He is always faithful.

IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN:

Oftentimes, the death of your plans leads you to God's perfect plan.
In order to truly trust God, you must first learn to abide with Him.
When you are bogged down with the day-to-day routines, refocus your eyes on Jesus, and He will renew your strength.
