Sometimes what we hope won't happen is exactly what God has planned for us. This isn't a cruel trick from the Lord but instead his divine plan playing out for his glory and our good. These things build our faith and draw us closer to the Lord as we trust him with our lives. 


My guest this week, Lisa Plett, talks about this very thing as she shares her story in her new book, A Stroke of Love. Lisa is a Jesus lover, wife to Brad since 1994, and the proud mom of four incredible boys. Her journey includes raising a son who experienced a prenatal stroke and adopting a son from Jamaica when he was 13. These experiences have shaped her unique perspective on faith, resilience, and unconditional love, making me a passionate advocate for special needs families and adoptive parents. She has a heart to encourage and uplift others facing life's unexpected challenges by sharing her experiences of finding purpose, hope and healing within God's plan. 

Our conversation was one of vulnerability and honesty when it comes to the trials of life. Lisa shared such great practical advice on how we can endure life's trials while still holding on to our faith. Make sure you pass this conversation & book on to a friend that you know could use some encouragement in their journey.

Key Takeaways:
We can feel like we have given up our faith but we can know God never leaves us

Even if we give up on God, he never gives up on us

You have permission to lament to God, he welcomes it

We don’t have to feel guilty when we tell God how we are feeling

Honesty with God is always the best route to take

Counseling can give you the strategies to work through & process what we are facing

There is always hope because of Jesus even if you can’t see it

“I’m not healed - I’m healing”, it’s a constant process
