On the day we step into the relationship we were made for, we step into the "more" God put us here for, and the search is over. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-mission/the-platform-you-would-never-choose-6257 2011-01-04T09:20:28-05:00 Let God sanctify that sick bed, that crisis, that unemployment line, that struggle. He will make it into a platform for the life-saving message of the Gospel. It's a platform you'd never choose, but God has. And you can speak eloquently through your songs in the middle of the night. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-most-important-relationship/god-s-strange-but-wonderful-recipes-6197 2010-10-12T09:40:10-05:00 With God, there is always something bigger going on than what you can see.
