Life isn't for cowards. If life can be compared to a journey, it's certainly a bumpy one. Family medical emergencies can send us on emotional hairpin curves.

He uses the life of Abraham to illustrate what it means to dare to trust. Just like Abraham, we may not know where God is leading us or how God will fulfill his promises to us. But we're called to trust--and that's not easy when we have our own hopes and dreams for ourselves and our families. Let Chuck Swindoll be your daily companion, encouraging you put your life back into God's capable hands. Discover today the freedom of courageous trust.

We desperately need role models worth following. Authentic heroes. People of integrity. Great lives to inspire us to do better, to climb higher, to stand taller. ?Chuck Swindoll
