Ken & Ann=TeamBuilders

I met this amazing couple as a new staff girl coming to serve w/ CRU at Texas A & M. Ken and Ann Cochrum poured time, love, guidance, truth & kindness into our team. Then, as now, their walk with Jesus & their loving marriage impacted many! Ken & Ann were the first couple I’d ever seen willing to leave life here to share the gospel with those who’d never, ever heard of Jesus! Those early years of ministry with Ken & Ann taught me how to build teams, disciple women, & endure in trials. They saw my weaknesses yet graciously gave me room to grow up! Brian knew & loved these great friends even before we got married. Now, 2 decades later, it’s always a huge blessing when we can see each other! So grateful for their example of loving Jesus well! (I still want to be Ann Cochrum when I grow up! 😉) #WinBuildSend #2Timothy2:2 #kingdomfriends — with Brian G. Fisher, Ann Cochrum and Ken Cochrum.

Not “if” but WHEN

Thank you to my girl, Pammy!@pamkillerlainart created this beauty! In this Psalm, David doesn’t say “if” I am afraid but “when”. Fear is a universal human battle. Fear is not just being afraid of something or someone. Do you struggle with always wanting control ? Fear that God is not good might be the source. Do you have to constantly be moving & doing? It could be fear of insignificance. Do you allow people to know all of you? It could be fear of rejection. This Psalm is powerful because it’s truthful (“I am afraid”) but it’s also victorious “I will trust in You”.) Acknowledge your fear, actively place yourself in God’s grasp, and expect Him to work for you! My favorite part of this chapter is v. 9. “…this I know that God is FOR me”. Freedom is always God’s will for our lives! No bondage, no fear and the sweet air of freedom is part of His inheritance for us. #psalm56 #KingDavid #faithnotfear #Trust — with Pam Killerlain.15317959_1534061499942836_1834825713901736917_n
