Many of us can relate to being in the wilderness. Some have lived short seasons, while others have spent a large portion of their lives in the wilderness. Being in the wilderness does not mean you are lost. Sometimes we are not ready for the promises God has planned for us. We must come in close relationship with Him so that we may learn His will for our lives.

Everyone has a deep desire to make a difference with their lives. They want to be part of something bigger than themselves. In this 5-day devotional, Fellowship of Christian Athletes executive Jeff Martin reminds us how God uses ordinary people to change the world.

Faithfulness is one of the most reassuring attributes about God. Yet when we are feeling spiritually parched, we sometimes wonder if God is still with us. This week, we’re going to explore God’s faithfulness in those desert places. Not only is God with us in difficult seasons, He is committed to strengthening our faith. He’s a God who is that good. He’s a God who is faithful!
