There was a time when I clung to grief. It felt easier than opening myself up to hope.

I’ve said prayers that were completely sincere. But if Jesus had been there, maybe he wasn't listening....

I'd love for you to get started with us.

The more I read the Gospels slowly, the more Jesus feels less like a concept and more like a friend.

Spend some time with a friend at friendsfollowingjesus.com.

When fear creeps in, I start forgetting all the ways God has been faithful.

If you felt this too, read this devotional and share with a friend who will pray with you.
