A new Coffee Conversations episode is live
Today I’m sharing a conversation filled with hope.
Not the kind of hope that ignores reality —
but the kind that is born inside it.
Arosha and Shanel walked through cancer, surgery, a coma, and months of uncertainty… and what moved me most was not only what they survived, but who they became in the middle of it.
As we spoke, I kept sensing this quiet reminder:
God doesn’t only meet us after the miracle.
He meets us in the waiting, in the unknown, and He carries life there.
This conversation is a testimony of healing —
but even more, it’s a testimony of presence, love, and resurrection life that still breathes today.
If you’re in a season that feels heavy…
if you’re praying for healing, clarity, or strength…
this episode is for you.

Grateful for a God who still brings life.

Personal Reflection — Trust & the Unknown
I’ve been sitting with trusting God for the past few weeks.
Again and again, one word keeps rising to the surface: safety.
Today I learned the Hebrew word for trust — בָּטַח (batach).
It doesn’t just mean to believe…
It means to feel secure, to be confident enough to rest,
to lean without bracing for impact.
And then Holy Spirit said something I did not expect.
“Mart-Marie, the unknown is keeping you safe.”
Because when you know — really know —
you want to move.
You want to act.
You want to fix, plan, decide.
Knowing pulls us into motion.
Not into rest.
But the unknown keeps us in the flow of heaven,
unbound from control,
unhooked from natural timelines.
The unknown protects us from striving.
And then the invitation came, softly:
“Learn to be.”
“You are safe in My mysteries.”
“In the hidden places.”
Today I’m choosing to trust —
not by understanding,
but by resting.
Safe in what is not yet revealed.
