<p><b>"Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly." --Colossians 3:16a </b></p><p> Many of us want God's Word to dwell richly in us, but life can get in the way. </p><p> We'd never intentionally write chapters of confusion, failure, loss, pain, conflict, or suffering into our stories. No one plans to wrestle with her identity in Christ, to struggle to love her husband, to feel lonely in ministry, or to feel helpless in motherhood.
