From Danielle
This week, I want to share about the power behind the idea of “showing up.” I had a recent prayer experience where I felt God was calling on me to “show up” in an uncertain situation, and trust that he would give me the grace I needed. It was such a powerful experience of the goodness and providence of God, that I began to think about other ways that we can be blessed by the idea of “showing up” in life.
I share some other ways that God might be calling you to show up – in prayer, in relationships, in work and other difficult situations. How about you? How do you feel God calling on you to “show up” these days, and how have you been blessed by listening?
