Finding Hope in the Midst of Pain and Uncertainty

In today’s post, I’m reviewing the book, From Lost to Found – Giving Up What You Think You Want for What Will Set You Free, by Nicole Zasowski. Her story is one of heartache and healing, infertility and miscarriage, and uprooting an identity misplaced in worldly things to anchor her worth in Christ. It’s about finding hope outside of circumstance, breaking free from perfectionism and other strongholds, and trusting God will use our pain to transform us into His image. If you’re walking through a season of pain or uncertainty, you need to read this book! Visit my post to enter our giveaway and win a free copy!

From Self-Reliant to God-Reliant (Learning How to Fully Trust God)

This is a guest post by Pam, who shares how her self-reliance and desire to feel financially secure prevented her from fully trusting God.  When an unexpected turn of events forced her family to close down their business and declare bankruptcy, God revealed what it meant to fully rely on and trust in Him.  Pam’s faith made it possible for her to persevere through a difficult time and for God to use her circumstances to transform her from self-reliant to God-reliant!  Her story is a testament that true security comes not from our own efforts, but from our one true God.
