From the desk of Steve Shultz:
I think many of you will easily relate to this latest article from Jennifer Martin.
There are seasons when the waiting seems long and we wonder why we've walked through challenge after challenge, while obeying the Lord and not seeing the desired breakthrough or promises fulfilled.
You will feel truly enlightened and receive a clear understanding as you read through Jennifer's article. I'm not going to give it way...but here's a snippet:
It seems as though God does not hear or has turned His face from you. You wonder if you have done something wrong, or maybe you have unrepented sin somewhere that you know not of?
