What if every moment of our lives is part of a grand, divine plan? This episode invites you to explore that thought, beginning with a personal story from my time in Paris, where J and I opened our home to young men far from theirs during the holidays. Through shared meals and conversations, we discovered the comfort and community that aligns with God's purpose for our lives. As J ministers in Zanzibar, I encourage you to engage with our life groups and linger on the theme of "dwell" from Psalm 23:1, as we strive to love God, make disciples, and reach out to the world.

Life often throws unexpected interruptions our way, but these do not derail God's intentions for us. By setting aside distractions and being fully present, we can embrace each moment as part of His plan. Through personal anecdotes, including a high school mission trip that taught me about divine provision, we uncover the steadfast support God offers as He shapes us like a potter mending clay. Our journey continues with a reflection on Esther's story, emphasizing the importance of recognizing and pursuing our unique purpose, trusting that God provides exactly what we need, even at the last moment.

As we close this episode, we encourage you to accept the transformative power of faith and embrace the second chances offered through Jesus Christ. Whether you're seeking guidance or a sense of belonging, we invite you to join a Bible-believing church. let's step forward in faith, committed to living lives reflecting our divine purpose, supported by God’s unyielding presence and love. May this week be filled with blessings and guidance as we hold hands in prayer and trust in God's unwavering protection and guidance.
