“He is indeed enough. He is not all we would ask for (if we were honest), but it is precisely when we do not have what we would ask for, and only then, that we can clearly perceive his all-sufficiency.” - Elisabeth Elliot⠀ ⠀ When life is painful—when it gives us suffering we have not asked for or doesn’t give us the blessing we long to receive—we are often tempted to shut the door on God’s sovereignty. But if instead welcome God’s sovereignty, we will discover that God is kind enough to use painful places and the brokenness of this world to draw us near to him, where we will desire nothing else but Jesus himself. In our loss and suffering, we will be assured that he absolutely is enough.⠀ ⠀ ep. 73 | hope when it hurts | @swalts14

“When things like this happen, it all comes down to ‘do I believe God is sovereign and do I believe he is good?’ Those are two of the most critical questions we ask when we can’t make sense of it.” -Sarah Walton⠀ ⠀ ep. 73 | hope when it hurts | @swalts14
On today’s episode, I’m chatting with Sarah Walton on the topic of hope when it hurts. We talked about Sarah’s own experience with suffering to how we can remind ourselves of the gospel even in the midst of our pain. All throughout our convo, she shared how the gospel speaks into all areas of our lives and gives hope to our suffering. ⠀ ⠀ She said, “If God was willing to crush Jesus, his own Son, who was sinless and perfect, and holy, he must love us far beyond what we can even grasp. And therefore, I have to speak that same truth into my circumstances right now.”⠀ ⠀ Ya’ll, it was so encouraging to hear from a mama who has suffered through a decade of trials and learned to walk with Christ as she and her family navigate the challenges of Lyme Disease and special needs. So you’ll know her a little better, Sarah Walton is a stay-at-home mom with four kids under the age of 11. She is the author, along with Kristen Wetherell from episode 67, of Hope When It Hurts: Biblical Reflections to Help You Grasp God’s Purpose in Your Suffering. I can’t wait for you to hear from her today. As always, you can find it NOW at the link in our profile!⠀ ⠀ ep. 73 | hope when it hurts | @swalts14
“God’s Word not only tells me what I need to do, it tells me what Jesus Christ has already done. That is the very thing that is meant to motivate my walk with the Lord and to continue to try even though I continually fail.” -Elyse Fitzpatrick⠀ ⠀ ep. 72 | studying the Word | @elyse_fitz
When you’ve had a season where you neglected to get in God’s Word, it can be daunting to choose where to start. I’d tell you to start in James. It’s straightforward and practical but incredibly convicting. If a friend asked you where to start fresh studying God’s word, what would you tell her?⠀ ⠀ ep. 72 | studying the Word | @elyse_fitz⠀
