Trusting God through unanswered prayers is easier said than done. These are the times our faith is tested. Sometimes we keep the faith through it and sometimes we turn away from God or lose our fire for God. We struggle to trust Him and sometimes we struggle to keep praying the big prayers and trusting God with the desires of our heart. Some prayers are still in the process of being answered and some are prayers that had a deadline and the prayer was not answered. It can lead to a crisis of faith even though we see in the Bible over and over people who had to walk through very difficult things before they say the promises of God and the promise land. This episode will encourage you and help light the fire in your heart for God again.

Listen to how she is responding to her faith being tested and be encouraged.
