Does Christianity remain true; does faith shine through, in the deepest heart of tribulation and hardship? Pr. Randal O’Brian proclaims this truth loud and clear… yes it does. When you are taken beyond human capacity, faced with the valley of the shadow of death, God is there. God is a faithful protector and guide, and even when you find your self in ‘hell’ on earth He is walking beside you. Many nights I have spent asking the hard questions. God is sending me into desperation; He is preparing my heart to face the limit of self and to fall beyond that point fully into His glory. Yet His hand has removed all fear. During the spinning of our car when I was hit by a dump truck over Christmas God spoke, He told my heart that it had no grounds for fear for Christ is my foundation. It was in being faced with death, experiencing God’s peace, and watching His providence that led me to the point of being able to obey His call to leave America and walk out into the unknown, in faith, trusting that God will prevail. Part of my heart wonders how it will withstand the depths of hardship, the Holy Spirit answers that my heart cannot withstand, I can not accomplish this task alone, but with Christ within me all things are possible.
