Current situation Quote by Ken Wytsma
““We must balance our desire for specific direction with an ability to be at peace in our current situation and the leading God has for us today. Somewhere along the line, as Christians, we are led to believe that there is a very clear map of God’s will for our lives, one that would make wisdom, prayer, and wise counsel from friends unnecessary because we would have such a clear understanding that all those things become irrelevant.””
