A Believers Journal

There are moments in our walk with God when our actions—or even our silent beliefs—reveal how much we underestimate Him. Life’s struggles and the systems we live in can convince us that God must play by the same rules. But He doesn’t. He has no limits, no boundaries.Through His love and sovereignty, He reminds us of His power to bring us to the destiny He’s already planned. In this entry, Cory shares raw and honest truths about navigating the humbling realization of how easy it is to underestimate God—and how God continues to prove otherwise.

In this entry I open up about something many of us wrestle with but rarely admit: unjustified suspicion toward God. Without realizing it, we project fear, paranoia, and mistrust onto a God who’s never wronged us. It’s not always rebellion — sometimes it’s just misunderstanding, lack of stillness, or fear disguised as control.I explore how easily our constantly changing desires make it hard to trust what God is doing — and how fear becomes the enemy’s strongest tool to keep us stuck. But there’s hope in confession, in clarity, and in learning how to trust again.If you’ve ever struggled with overthinking, mistrust, or fear in your walk with God, this is a moment of realignment for both of us.

In this entry, Cory comes to God in humility and repentance after recognizing his own struggle with the flesh—much like Paul describes in Romans 7. As he reflects, he’s met with the powerful reminder that nothing can separate him from the love of God. This moment becomes both a confession and a celebration of grace.

This entry captures an emotional and vulnerable moment as Cory wrestles with natural circumstances that don’t seem to be in his favor. He opens up about the discipline of restraint that God is calling him to walk in and honestly confesses his frustration with what he feels the Lord isn’t allowing him to pursue. Yet, in real time, we witness a powerful shift—where he encourages himself and realigns his focus with the calling God has placed on his life. We also get a raw glimpse of personal intercession, as Cory recognizes the influence of his emotions and the attacks of the enemy, choosing to boldly pray for himself. It’s a powerful and intimate moment worth hearing

In this entry, Cory shares his gratitude and shifting mindset about the call of God on his life. Through a comparison between different fruit trees, he reflects on how some require more time to develop and bear fruit than others. This insight helps him realign with the unique process God has him on, embracing the pace and purpose of his journey.

This entry captures the beginning, middle, and fulfillment of God’s instruction in Cory’s life. With awe and joy, he reflects on how far God has brought him—and how they’ve made it to this moment. It’s a beautiful conversation with God, documented as a personal testimony and milestone in the journey.
