How to get rid of the blocks we have in intimacy so we can build inspiring and enjoyable relationships.
We all want to be cared for, known, understood, and loved for who we are. God is the starting place for this kind of intimacy.
My whole life I have evaluated myself by how much I have gotten done and have resisted slowing down or pacing.
Only intimacy with God can satisfy my soul, and having a deep relationship with God will help me build deep relationships with people around me.
Even when we make mistakes and hurt God, he still sticks with us because he loves us. Nothing we do can drive him away.
God exerts and expresses an unwavering perseverance when he sees our good days having gone bad. He doesn’t stop loving us when we fail, sin, or give up.
This is a lesson for all of us about running and quitting. Before we “give up the ghost,” maybe we should check with God to find out if he has a plan.
The goal for today is to prepare your heart and mind to let go, whoever it is against, whatever was done, and wherever it happened.
There is one thing to remember about God: when he speaks, more often than not, it is in a whisper.
When we pray and hear our own emotions, we often identify the raging irrationality of what we are saying, and are surprised by the gentleness of God who listens, then draws even closer to us, because of our emotional honesty.
We can be sure of is this, no matter how far we run or how much we sleep, God will keep waking us up.
Resist the temptation to let fear induced stress make us quit for relief. Instead, rely on God to get through, realizing fear is an emotion we can conquer especially when it is based on tomorrows that may never come.
