Hebrews 12:1-2 are among my favorite verses in the Bible. They're even the inspiration for this blog. But it's verse 3 that I've been sitting with this morning.

Trusting God Through the Waiting
I'm so excited to bring you this month's guest blog from one of my forever friends, Sonja Cannell. I met Sonja shortly after giving my life to Jesus 16+ years ago in Marysville, Washington.
