   Episode 69 - I Choose Today to Trust the Process

   Waiting can be hard. Waiting for healing. Waiting for clarity. Waiting for provision. Waiting for the next open door. And sometimes the hardest part is wondering whether anything is happening at all. In this Best Of episode of I Choose Today, we revisit what it means to trust God in the process—not passively, but with a heart that is expectant, surrendered, prepared, and present. Because waiting is not wasted when it is placed in God’s hands. In This Episode We’ll look at four ways to actively trust God in a waiting season: Positioning — choosing to seek God and watch for His activity, even when He seems quiet. Posturing — surrendering our timeline, expectations, and need for control. Preparing — remaining faithful with what God has placed in front of us, even when the larger purpose is still hidden. Practicing Presence — resisting the temptation to live for “when” and learning to recognize God in the life He has given us today. Through the stories of Habakkuk, Zacchaeus, Hannah, Joseph, Mary, and a personal story of waiting for the right home, we’re reminded that what feels like delay may actually be preparation. God may be doing His deepest work where we can least see it. Scripture Habakkuk 2:1–3 Luke 19:3–4 1 Samuel 1:15 James 4:10 Luke 10:38–42 Genesis 37–50 Today’s Step Ask yourself: Where am I struggling to trust the process right now? Then choose one posture for today: Position yourself to hear from God. Surrender something you are still trying to control. Faithfully prepare with what is already in your hands. Practice being fully present in the season you are in. You do not have to figure out the whole process. You only need to trust God with today. Remember Waiting is not punishment. It is a process. What looks like delay may be development. What feels hidden may be preparation. And what seems slow may still be completely within God’s timing. Waiting is never wasted in God’s hands. So today, choose to trust the process. He’s not late. He’s working. And He’s faithful.

   Episode 68 - I Choose Today to Trust God When Life Feels Overwhelming Best Of I Choose Today

   Have you ever felt like life was simply too much? In this final episode of the Best Of I Choose Today series, we revisit a message born out of a season of overwhelm—too many responsibilities, too many decisions, and the sense that God was leading somewhere new without showing how everything would come together. Then Joshua 3 changed the picture. The Israelites reached the Jordan River at flood stage. God didn’t wait for the river to calm. He asked the priests to step into the water while it was still rushing—and Scripture tells us the water had already been stopped upstream. The miracle was in motion before they could see it. Maybe you’re standing at the edge of your own Jordan today. This episode is a reminder that just because you cannot see what God is doing does not mean He is not already at work. In This Episode What to do when life feels bigger than your capacity Why God doesn’t always wait for circumstances to become manageable before asking us to move The significance of the Jordan being at flood stage Trusting God when His provision is not yet visible Releasing what we were never meant to carry alone Believing God may already be working “upstream” in places we cannot see Scripture Joshua 3 — The Israelites cross the Jordan River into the Promised Land. Isaiah 54:2 — “Enlarge the place of your tent…” Today’s Step Name one thing that feels too heavy for you right now. Write it down or say it aloud, then pray: Lord, I release this into Your hands. I choose to trust You. I believe You are already at work, even in places I cannot see. You don’t have to know how the entire river will part. You only need to trust God with the next step. Remember Flood stage is God’s stage. The provision, help, clarity, or breakthrough you’ve been praying for may already be in motion upstream. I choose today—and every day—to trust the One who goes upstream for us.

   Episode 67 - Best Of: I Choose Today to Find God in the Wilderness

   While I'm taking a summer sabbatical to rest, reconnect with the Lord, and spend time with family, I'm sharing a few episodes that continue to encourage and challenge me. My prayer is that this message meets you right where you are today and helps you take one more step in your faith journey. Have you ever found yourself in a wilderness season—dry, uncertain, lonely, or wondering where God is in the middle of it all? The wilderness can feel like a place we've somehow wandered into by mistake. But throughout Scripture, we discover something very different: the wilderness isn't where God abandons His people. It's often where He meets them. In this Best Of episode of I Choose Today, we're looking at Hagar, Moses, and Jesus—each of whom encountered God in the wilderness. We'll also explore the Hebrew word midbar and the beautiful connection between wilderness and speaking. Sometimes when the noise is stripped away and we can no longer depend on our own strength, we begin to recognize that God has been present all along. Just as He opened Hagar's eyes to see the well that was already there, He can open ours to recognize His provision and presence in places that once seemed barren. I'll also share part of my own wilderness story—a season when I felt alone, unwanted, and uncertain about my future, yet God was quietly leading me toward an encounter with Jesus that would change the trajectory of my life. Maybe the wilderness isn't the detour we think it is. Maybe it's where God prepares us, speaks to us, reminds us who we are, and teaches us deeper dependence on Him. In This Episode: Why the wilderness doesn't mean God has abandoned you Hagar's encounter with El Roi—the God who sees The significance of God opening Hagar's eyes to the well How God met me during one of my own wilderness seasons Why the wilderness often becomes a place of preparation What Moses' and Jesus' wilderness experiences teach us about calling and identity How God works even when it feels like nothing is happening Why transformation often happens in deserts rather than on mountaintops Today's Step Take ten quiet minutes today. No music. No noise. No distractions. Simply sit with God and ask Him to meet you in your own midbar. Then pray: "Lord, meet me in the wilderness. Strip away the noise so I can hear Your voice again. Open my eyes to see where You're already providing. Remind me that You see me, You hear me, and You're here with me—even here." Keep a notebook nearby and write down whatever He brings to your heart. Because when God speaks in the wilderness, it's worth remembering. Scripture References Genesis 16 Genesis 21 Exodus 3 Matthew 4:1–11 The wilderness is not where God loses you. It's where He finds you. So if this is your season to wait, listen, or simply breathe, trust that He's working. Even when it's quiet. Even when it feels barren. Even here.
