Have you ever wondered if anything you're doing as a parent is actually making a difference? I did too—until one unexpected text reminded me that God is often working long before we can see the fruit.

Be honest—if you saw a woman lying in a gas station parking lot, would you stop to help or just assume she was having a really bad day? Unfortunately, I know the answer.

Have you ever realized a place you love no longer fits the life you're trying to build? That's what happened to us, though it took me a while to see it.
