Susan continues to be drawn to equipping God's people to examine their lives and remove anything that may be an obstacle to having more of Him.
This week, Susan is teaching from John 3:30 He must increase, but I must decrease. It's easy for things to crowd out God's presence in our lives; often, it's done unintentionally.

This week, Susan is sharing a message from the story of Elisha. This great man of faith can be found in 1 Kings of the Old Testament.
Elisha knew when the Prophet Elijah placed his cloak on him, it was a divine call to follow God. Elisha's response? He immediately burned the plow he was using. It was an outward declaration of an inward stand and commitment to his faith.
Susan draws from this story applicable truths for our modern-day faith and challenges listeners to prayerfully consider what the "plow" may represent in their lives.

On a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate your patience? Susan asks this rhetorical question this week as she encourages listeners to wait well when God's answer isn't yes or no, but wait.
If we believe God doesn't waste anything, we must also believe that applies to seasons of waiting. When we understand that God is never late, we learn to wait differently.
