Simple Faith and Trust

I don't know about you, but when God strips away things I think I have control over, more times than not He places me in a season of isolation. He does this to create a place of solitude where I can easily hear His voice without the distractions of others and the things of life. If you're in a season like this, settle in, enjoy and He will guide you into simple faith, trust and a right relationship with Him and His will for you.
