Description
Following the Lord’s call can be heavy yet heartwarming. Hear it from Kate Shaw, of our Jackson, Mississippi community, whose foster care journey butted up against a busy schedule and desire to plan. Still, Kate saw each fostering up-and-down as another opportunity to glorify God.
From challenging her Type A personality to training her to be “interruptible”, fostering children, Kate says, taught her family to be compassionate and empathetic. And when she prayed for direction, the Lord made his plans abundantly clear.
In this episode, you will learn:
– When you seek the Lord’s will for your life, you can rest in His purposes.
– The Lord may call you to obedience—even when your plate is already full.
– He will equip and sustain you as He carries out His plans for your life, because He is faithful.
