Clarity in the Longing: A Year of Growing Deep and Wide (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781736084441)

What does God think about the longings of our soul? Are our dreams for real, and for now? And if they are, how can we know what to do about them?

We abide. God doesn't put these things inside us to tease us, and we don't have to fear missing His direction because He is big enough to make it known as we abide with Him.

In volume three of Abide: A Year of Growing Deep and Wide, we find clarity for our longing.

We learn that we are doing big, significant things with our daily, small, steadfast moves of obedience. We learn to hold our expectations with an open hand, because without surrendering the dream to God, it becomes an idol - and then a nightmare. And we see that there is a messy beauty to works in progress...and we are all a work in progress.

Clarity in the longing comes when we take Him at His word, knowing He is faithful, even as we work toward something we cannot see. Because we are the ones He is growing, and He doesn't waste a thing.
