Summary
"Jesus did many other things as well. If every one of them were written down, I suppose that even the whole world would not have room for the books that would be written." John 21:25
When life doesn't go as planned, do you get paralyzed by your circumstances, or do you focus on God and His past faithfulness? Today's storyteller, Meghan Brown, from our Fairhope, Alabama community, will encourage you to see the love of God in the midst of life's twists and turns.
Through detours, disappointments, and a devastating loss, Meghan shares her story of learning the importance of looking intently for God's goodness, especially when life's challenges leave you asking why.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN:
- In challenging moments, focus on the characteristics of God.
- There is a difference in believing what is true and resting in what is true… believe God's plan is good because He is good.
- Good things, hard things, and holy things can occupy the same space.
