The Power of Saying YES to God

Saying YES to God is a love offering. A beautiful act of obedience that surfaces from the overflow of God’s love for us.

Over the past decade, I’ve slowly learned to give God my YES because I’ve felt how much He loves me, experienced His deep, deep grace, and witnessed the truth that His plans are always greater than my own.

My new friend, Rachael Adams, shares a lot about the power of a small YES… in her book, A Little Goes a Long Way*… on her podcast, The Love Offering Podcast… and on her blog with “The Love Offering Guest Blog Series.”

Rachael kindly included me as a guest blogger in this series, with a blog post I wrote exclusively for her blog.

Example of Nehemiah Rebuilding the Walls of Jerusalem

Below is a sneak peek excerpt from my post, titled Walls of Jerusalem:

Recently, I felt a nudge to re-read the book of Nehemiah. A book that starts with Nehemiah’s heart to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem for his fellow Jews who returned home after the Babylonian exile.

Once Nehemiah dedicated himself to lead the people and rebuild the walls, the seemingly impossible feat was completed in just 52 days (Nehemiah 6:15). Over 2.5 miles of thick wall, high enough to defend a city. All accomplished in less than two months. Is your mind as blown as mine?

… Friend, nothing is too impossible for God.
