In this episode of Small Beginnings with Sara, I’m sharing reflections from my recent trip to Poland and North Cyprus, and all the unexpected ways I encountered God’s presence along the way.

There were moments of beauty, moments of grief, moments of stillness, and moments where I had to trust God in places that felt unfamiliar and uncertain. I found myself thinking so much about the scripture in Deuteronomy 31:8, “The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you.”

Sometimes we walk into new seasons carrying questions, exhaustion, grief, or even fear of the unknown. But I’m reminded again that God never asks us to go somewhere He hasn’t already gone before us.

In this episode, I talk about what it means to mourn with those who mourn, to find rest in Jesus, and to slow down long enough to recognize God’s voice and presence, even while traveling across the world.

If you’re walking through a season that feels uncertain, heavy, or stretching you beyond what feels comfortable, I pray this conversation reminds you that you are not alone. God is already there.
