Let the Whispers of God Bring New Hope to Your Soul When life hasn't turned out as we hoped it would, it's easy to let negative attitudes dominate our thoughts--discouragement, confusion, unbelief, and even bitterness and cynicism. To cope, we often run ahead of God in an effort to change circumstances---or we even run away from Him. But the cure for lost hope is to draw near to God and let Him renew and heal our hearts and restore our faith. "Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but desire fulfilled is a tree of life" (Proverbs 13:12). Drawing on scriptural teaching, heart---to---heart storytelling and inspiring quotes, Dutch shows what God wants to reveal to us during difficult times. The barren places can become the holy places, just as Moses' 40 years in the desert culminated in God revealing Himself within the burning bush. God wants to stir our faith during hard times and show Himself in even greater ways so that we are transformed, renewed and ready to go to new levels of service for Him.
