Have you ever committed to becoming your best self only to be hit with an immediate trial, challenge, or storm?

 

Even when we make plans and commit to carrying them out, we have to take into consideration that greatness often requires us to expect some form of resistance. God has given you a gift and entrusted you with his purpose, so it’s expected that the enemy will try to steal that from you. Today’s guest thought that she had everything figured out, until she humbly realized that God had other plans!
