Filling My Lamp With Oil: Emily Holman's Story :: [Episode 313]

Filling My Lamp With Oil: Emily Holman's Story :: [Episode 313]

The Bible tells us to let God's Word dwell richly in our hearts (Col. 3:16), focus on what is true (Phil. 4:8), and keep our eyes set on eternity (2 Cor. 4:18).

Today's storyteller is going to beautifully remind you of the benefits that come from living out these verses.

Emily Holman, from our Tupelo, Mississippi community, shares her journey of strengthening her faith in God and trust in His Word as she walked through two of her life's most challenging and heartbreaking seasons. This powerful story will encourage you to develop deep roots in your faith and learn the importance of, in Emily's words, putting "oil in your lamp."

IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN:

- When you find yourself in darkness and pain, you must speak God's truth

- Like Peter walking on the water, you can do the impossible as long as you keep your eyes focused on Jesus.

- With the help of God, suffering can turn to beauty.
