“They all ate as much as they wanted, and afterward, the disciples picked up twelve baskets of leftovers.” — John 6:12 Our limitations are often an invitation for divine creativity and an opportunity to glorify our generous Provider.

Finding Strength in the Lord
1 Samuel 30:1–20 Have you ever confused your own voice and will with the Lord’s? In 1 Samuel, we see David walk through a season where he becomes distracted and a bit off course. He hasn’t abandoned God, but he has stepped outside of where God intended him to be. And yet, God faithfully brings…
