Don’t Take My Word For It

A Year as a Mole: Lessons in Time of Trial


Listen Later

In this episode I seek to share the reality of my trial pertaining my health to an extent. More importantly, I want to affirm, lift up and encourage any of you going through a trial yourself. God has used this time to work in my heart beautifully and I have realized more than ever that I cannot pass a single day without seeking God's face or I will simply wilt and despair. Times of trial are uncomfortable, unwanted, stressful and discouraging. When we are focused inward, we ask all sorts of things, as I have asked plenty of times. I worry. I despair. I forget the blessings which have sometimes just happened when faced with new obstacles. I am below the mark of what my faith should be; perhaps you are in the same boat. I share a few verses that God has used to change my perspective, stop asking unanswerable questions and focus on Him and His goodness.
