What do you do when disappointment happens so often, that you stop believing anything will ever change?
Sometimes a simple conversation, a word of encouragement, or taking a moment to pray for someone can have a greater impact than you ever imagined. Because you carry more hope than you realize.
What if feeling under qualified isn’t a sign you’re in the wrong assignment, but evidence that God is inviting you to depend on Him?
