God’s Plan for Your Life

It is a regular conversation among Christians with statements like, “God has a plan for you.” In my experience this is often associated with major life changes or even avoided tragedy. It is very true. God does have a plan for each of, but it may not be the plan we had in mind. The…

Are We Listening to God?

It happens to all of us. When it comes to our relationship with God, we all like to make things harder than they ‘need’ to be. We put obstacles in front of ourselves and others that God never put Himself. God already told us what we needed to do, but are we listening? At that…
