A Sec with The Psalmist

God wants us to learn how to accept every unexpected event as an invitation to trust Jesus and his word, to expect his goodness all the way through. A life lived like that is one of the most powerful forces on the planet—because there’s a momentum of courage and faith that propels us into new places.


What if we learned to embrace the unpredicted shocks, stressors and volatility of life and then use it for our gain?

Fighting the good fight of faith. Standing. Believing. Because he is working all things together for our good…and more!
