Embracing God’s Will and Experiencing His Power
”Deep calls to deep in the roar of your waterfalls; all your waves and breakers have swept over me.” (Psa. 42:7)
Over the past 30 years, my life has been a journey filled with ups and downs, smooth sailing and stormy seas. Through it all, one thing has remained constant: God’s presence. He has walked with me through every challenge, and with each step, my love for Him has deepened.
Hearing God Through Life’s Circumstances
Life has a way of teaching us lessons we never expected. Sometimes, God speaks to us not with a booming voice or a neon sign, but through the very circumstances we face. Whether it’s joy or pain, triumph or trial, He uses each moment to draw us closer to Him. The Apostle Paul reminds us of this beautifully: “My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power, so that your faith might not rest on human wisdom, but on God’s power” (1 Corinthians 2:4-5).
In my own story, I’ve seen how God’s hand shapes every chapter. There’s something miraculous about experiencing His presence so personally—far beyond human logic or understanding. When we let Him lead, He reveals His will for us in ways that are undeniable and life-changing.
Discovering God’s Will
Walking with God is an adventure, one that’s filled with surprises and unimaginable blessings. He has far greater plans for us than we could ever dream of. The Bible assures us of this in Jeremiah 29:11: “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
As I’ve grown in my relationship with Him, I’ve realized that getting to know God isn’t just about believing in Him—it’s about experiencing Him in every moment of life. He equips each of us to fulfill the unique calling He has placed on our hearts. And now, more than ever, there’s a need to reach people who haven’t yet experienced the love of Christ—those in areas and communities untouched by existing churches.
Why Our Relationship with God Matters
At the core of everything is our relationship with God. It’s the foundation upon which everything else is built. When we truly know Him, not just in our minds, but in our hearts, we begin to see the world differently. We see His fingerprints on our lives and those around us. And we realize that He is always working—raising up new leaders, ministries, and voices to bring hope and renewal to a world that desperately needs it.
I want to encourage you to pray and believe as I move forward in this mission, following the Spirit’s guidance. Together, we can answer God’s call to serve as catalysts for spiritual renewal, bringing His love and truth to those who need it most.
To God Be the Glory
Looking back on my journey, I can say with confidence that God’s work in my life has surpassed anything I could have planned for myself. His grace, joy, and peace have been my constant companions, and I pray that they will be yours, too, through Jesus Christ.
God loves us more than we can imagine, and His plans for us are extraordinary. May we glorify Him in all that we do, now and forever. Amen.
