Standing in the Storm

“What am I going to do?” How many times have we all uttered this cry of despair? Sometimes the storms of life come without letup; they seem endless, successively crashing against us until we feel as though we can’t take any more.

A Walk of the Heart

Walking with the Lord is a walk that takes place in the heart—a heart to follow Him. My journey with the Lord is a walk to seek Him. This is a walk of the heart I choose to take each brand new day.

Happy?

I believe the reason some people burn out and leave full-time ministry is simply because they are not taking enough time to relax and enjoy the Lord.
