How can we persevere in the face of setbacks? How can we take a chance to discover what lies beyond the obstacles we're facing?   Life is indeed unpredictable. We never know when adversity will strike. In a flash of an eye, the things you were enjoying at the moment can turn into a nightmare. Thus, we naturally get discouraged when confronted with troubles, adversities, or conditions that make our lives uncomfortable. Many things in this world could injure our hopeful hearts and render us defenseless.   However, we must realize that we can still find a glimmer of hope even amid our worst circumstances. There will always be something held in reserve for each of us. Consequently, we cannot see those great opportunities because we dwell too much on rejection, failure, and unfavorable circumstances. Recognize that there are certain things over which we have no control. We must learn to trust God and His judgments since He understands what we genuinely require and how much we can handle. Let us strive to live with no regrets of yesterday's opportunities, leaving no room for doubts and embracing God's plan. Therefore, when bombarded by negative thoughts and self-doubt, take a leap of faith and believe God can take good care of everything. As our guest speaker claimed, "God will never tell you to do something that will lead to your destruction."   Pastor Wesley Thompson is a loving husband, father, educator, author, activist, chaplain, political candidate, pastor, and faithful man of God. He is a native of Florence, Alabama. He is the senior pastor and teacher at Bethel Colbert Missionary Baptist Church and previously served as a youth pastor and interim pastor in his eleven years of ministry. He graduated with a bachelor's degree in political science from the University of North Alabama and a master's of divinity degree from Mercer University. He is pursuing a doctor of ministry degree from the Interdenominational Theological Center. He has worked as a college admissions recruiter and adjunct professor. He is a member of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., NAACP, the Academy of Preachers, and various community service organizations. He is married to Le'Tanndra Thompson, and they have one son, Miles Thompson.   In this special episode with Pastor Wesley Thompson, we'll learn about the inspiring life of a man of God who encountered an unfavorable situation in life that made him stronger and closer to God. Be captivated as we discover how a young pastor handled his life's most challenging decisions to take care of his pregnant wife as she faced a tragic health crisis.
