\"\"<\/a>Just like the Patriarchs, we go through a season of difficulty to test our faith and hearts before we reach our Promised land. My heart\u2019s desire is that the lessons of my journey will help condense the time it takes you to reach your destiny.<\/p>\n

Place of the speaking is the definition for desert in Hebrew. One of the first lessons in my wilderness season was the transformation of my thinking. Through failed expectations, God began to tear out my old foundation of conventional wisdom and begin to write his commands on my heart and mind, leading me by His spirit. (Heb. 10:16) I love to share the messages God gave me to prepare for the times ahead. He wants to remove obstacles and turn the mountains in your life into roads of travel and freedom.<\/p>\n
