In the section “Settlement: Seeing God,” what truth about God impressed you the most? Why?
-
The truth that God has the power to turn formidable obstacles into safe pathways impressed me the most. When faced with an overwhelming challenge, it is easy to think that there is no solution or way forward, but God always has a way.

In the section “Settlement” Seeing God,” the truth about God that impressed me the most at this time is that ” He promises to be with those who move forward with Him (3:7).” I have felt the calling of God many times to go into the ministry at a Pastors level and preaching level but have shrunk from the calling for many reasons. One reason was always that I was a single mother raising children so much of my time that I didn’t see how I could go into the Ministry at a fulltime capacity when schooling is a must and I didn’t have the finances or time. Also I easily could talk myself out of it because I didn’t think I was smart enough or that my personal history would mock me. I’m feeling strongly about trying to answer God’s calling and the truth that God will be with me when I move forward with Him is a truth I must hold onto and have faith in Him and that it is the Holy Spirit that is calling me.
-
He has the power to turn formidable obstacles into safe pathways (3:15); this means His omnipotence. For me, I’m never in doubt of God’s omnipotence even when I’m unsure of His exact will and timings on any matter or events.
-
I think it’s the truth that He turns obstacles into opportunity is so beautiful. What can seem bad to us is always just a setup for God to work how amazingly He does. He is faithful and true.

Keeps his promises. It is not always in our timing but he never fails.
