Living in the midwest, with its vibrant falls, bright and flourishing springs, and crystal-white winters, I've come to enjoy the changing seasons. However, I don't always view life from the same perspective and find myself reluctant to release situations, experiences, roles, or opportunities. But like today's guest shares, we must release what God is leading us from in order to receive, with open hands, all He has planned for us. While our the unknown might feel frightening, we can trust that our God is good, faithful, loving, and ever-present through it all.
