Roadblock: something that blocks progress or prevents accomplishment of an objective

And what happens when break through the roadblocks and start living the life we were designed to?

God can be trusted to keep His promises - but that doesn't mean it will always happen when we think it should.

As we walk out the call of God on our life, it?s crucial that we walk step in step with Him. But what does that look like practically? How do we have patience throughout the process? And what can happen when we lean into Him in FULL obedience?

In this life, we all encounter temptation, and giving in to it can lead us down a slippery slope of sin.
