Begin and Behold

EP02 Trailer | IVF, Loss and Faith

What if the miracle isn’t what I’m waiting for… but what God is doing inside of me? I’ve felt the tension between believing for a breakthrough and thinking my testimony would only matter if the miracle showed up. But God showed me something deeper… My healing, my surrender, and my praise in the waiting… is already the testimony. God isn’t just moving in outcomes—He’s moving in my heart. In the waiting, in the unanswered prayers, in the “not yet”… He is still present. Still healing me. Still transforming me. My ability to praise Him in the middle of it all is evidence of His work in my life. So I go to the secret place. I ask Him to reveal what I haven’t surrendered yet. And every time… He meets me there.
