Don’t for a second believe that there are coincidences. Look at life with new eyes and know that God is putting the pieces of your puzzle together with precision, not coincidences. When we walk with Him, listen to His voice, and take Him at His word, look out… Awe happens.
Read MoreThe revelation came in like a 220-volt current to a 110 outlet…There is no experience like receiving a revelation, a call to greatness. No victory, no treasure, no person or object can compete with the overwhelming sense of security created by the Voice. To know that God is close and personal changes the game. This was the confirmation I had prayed for.
Read MoreHold on to your God given dreams. There is always hope, there is always more with Him. While life can sometimes feel like a musty old antique shop, God is in the business of rekindling dreams and if we keep looking He will bring life to your dreams in a most unsuspecting manner.

In fact it could be our voice that changes the destiny of another.
