Have you ever felt like you've lost your way? Usually by the time we realize we’re lost, we’ve been lost for quite some time. And we instinctively ask, "What should I do?"

Maturing takes time, but it’s dependent on more than just time. Transformation is a combination of divine enablement and personal responsibility.

When we first move into a new house, the basics (walls, floors, cabinets) are all provided. How we make that home ours is determined by what we fill it with. God does the same for us.
