Dear Reader,

When I was growing up, significant events occurred at the kitchen table. We discussed all manner of things there—shared our troubles, our joys, thoughts, and dreams. We also discussed how our own perspectives can be based on logical and reasonable—even tangible—evidence and still be totally wrong.

Often during the challenges in our lives, we suspect (or fear) God isn’t listening or hearing our pleas, even though they are coming from the very deepest recesses of our souls. We get an impression, and it stays with us. And then, with that clarity of hindsight we hear so much about, we discover some new tidbit of information or make some discovery or something happens that we wouldn’t even have known about had we not been in the exact place we’re in. And suddenly everything looks totally different.

It’s hard to walk in faith when we’re in one of life’s long and dark tunnels. It’s easy to feel forgotten and lost and helpless and hopeless.

But we’re not.

In God’s own time, He reveals that to us, and rather than feeling forgotten, we know that He was right there with us in that dark tunnel, gently leading us to His light.

As we learn this, so too must Lisa Harper and Mark Taylor. I so hope you enjoy their journeys and that their discoveries aid you in some small way or affirm your own.

I’d love to hear from you and invite you to visit me at [http://www.vickihinze.com] www.vickihinze.com. Drop me a note anytime with stories of your journey.
