We hear lots of talk especially right now about living in the end times. Most people are pretty nervous, anxiety levels are hightened, worry is elevated but despite all that there is also revival happening even if it is primarily behind the scenes.

Often times when things go wrong we immediately blame and criticize ourselves because let’s be real, that is much easier than accepting the unknown and accepting the true lack of control we had over the situation. It is facing this fact though that allows for
