At 20, I turned from God and spiraled into addiction, ego, and brokenness for 11 years. At 33, sick and desperate, I cried out to Jesus. He forgave, healed, and restored me—showing His grace and patience in my journey from atheist pride to renewed faith.
Life is distracting. Kids. Work. Movies. Phones. It all crowds our time connecting. That’s why my wife and I started a weekly Couples Check-In.
Even in Jesus' time, chronic illness like leprosy left people isolated and hopeless, yet He reached out and healed them. I believe He still heals today. Here’s how Jesus met me in my chronic pain and began a healing I never thought was possible.
God is all around us, in the air, the trees, the quiet moments, but we miss Him in our distracted, hurried lives. Slow down. Be still. In stillness, you’ll find rest, presence, and the deep connection your soul has been longing for.
Even in silence, God is speaking. Through Job’s story, we see that silence is not absence, it’s divine communication. When life falls apart, God is still present, still working, and still loving. His silence is a sacred space where faith is tested and trust is refined.
When the storms of life hit, where is God? This reflection invites you to find peace in surrender, recognizing that God's presence is steady, even in chaos.
