Life happens – it’s a roller coaster, and you will get to a point where you are tired and don’t want to keep fighting. Whether it is because of a painful situation, a season of waiting, or when the going gets really tough. That is when the “big D’s" of life can set in – Depression. Despair. Disillusionment. Disappointment. What do we do when that happens? Seek purpose from your pain. As we look at the life of Paul, we see a story in Acts that shows us how to live within our pain. God has promises for our life, but when they don’t look the way we thought they would, how will we respond? Do we focus on the why or fix our eyes on the Who? Faith is proven IN the fire. If you are walking through the fire right now, be encouraged. The dawn is coming. In this episode, you will hear Candace and Bianca discuss:  Being ok with sitting in the tension of feeling pain  Focusing on the who, not the why during hard seasons  How hard seasons will prove our faith in God  Connect with Candace and Bianca:  Candace on Instagram @candacecbure  Candace on TikTok @candacecameronb Follow the Podcast on Instagram @candacecameronburepodcast  Follow the Podcast on TikTok @ccbpodcast Bianca on Instagram @biancaolthoff Bianca’s book Grit Don’t Quit Learn more about your ad choices.

Have you ever had a moment where what you are saying and how you are being understood just doesn’t go the right way? We’ve all been there - communication is a practice we continue to get better at day by day. The same goes for communicating with God.
