Raise your hand if you've waited TWO DECADES to see a vision coming to fruition! Whew, ya'll this waiting room is tough! My friend Carissa Martin, founder of the vision-come-to-life you'll hear about, Monarch's Way, pours truth into us that not only does vision take time, there will be times when you are faint of heart and wonder if it's all just a pipe dream after all. Listen to this amazing story of perseverance and hope. It's just for you for such a time as this!
Here's just a snippet of Carissa's story:
Nineteen years ago, in an arena in St. Louis, I was encountered by God’s presence and He began unfolding the plans he had for my life. I've called it my burning bush moment.
Much has happened in those 19 years – far more than could be told here. But at a glance there was the excitement of the vision, calling it forth, praying, believing and spending time with Mr. Whishard. Then came the death of the man, the death of the dream and a lot of tough life lessons.
Through this journey, God has never left my side and what I thought was dead has tenaciously given way to running after His heart to heal the brokenhearted and set the captives free!
It’s an interesting thing how a seed falls onto the ground and dies before it truly lives.
