There is nothing more important on your to do list today than spending time with the God who saved you. There are no feelings or emotions that time with your creator will not improve. There are no circumstances in life he cannot speak into. Many of us know these things, we’ve heard them over and over in our lives, but we still don’t read our Bibles.

Due to my husband’s new job, I’m in a new city, a new home, a new community, and God can take me in any direction he chooses. I realized I wouldn’t get an interview, a job or even an offer without him causing it to happen. What happened after that realization was pretty extraordinary.

You’ve heard the phrase “power couple” before, right? It refers to that couple who has it all together.
The hard truth, my friend, is this: if I don’t leave space for God to move, I won’t see him move.
I know to some of us all these words can be difficult to keep straight. Or am I the only one who can read a paragraph in the Bible three times and still have no idea what I’m reading?
