The Power Of The Second Thought
by Jesse Bradley
Have you ever felt a loss of hope or uncertainty about the next step forward? Have you desired a roadmap, new tools, and a stronger relationship with God as you navigate unexpected detours and difficulties?
I’ve been there. Life was going smoothly in one direction, but then it took an unexpected turn, and it would never be the same. I was profoundly disappointed, feeling lower than I ever thought I could go. In the depths of my discouragement and loneliness, God was there. I resisted and initially kept my walls up, but His presence and love prevailed. God renewed my mind and perspective, pulled me out of my negative patterns, and I learned how to cultivate powerful new habits. But that’s not just my story; He desires to do the same for you, too. Together, we will shatter the lies and uncover the truth about how to access overflowing hope. This journey includes inspiring insights, uplifting stories, thoughtful questions, and a practical plan. God wants to empower and guide you daily, providing refreshment and joy. The best is yet to come.
Join me in discovering and developing a hope that surpasses your challenges!
