When we have the certainty that God loves us completely for who we are, we can be satisfied no matter what.
We need to acknowledge what is wearing us out, especially the ways in which we become focused on rules and behaviors.
Even when we face the impossible, we can still have faith because God can do anything.
We have dreams we want to see happen and visions we want to accomplish, but it takes a lot of energy to keep running toward them.
We can open our hearts up to him by listening, talking, turning, and committing to being close to him.
God wants us to both have our own happy and satisfying life and to help others have an opportunity for that life, too.
As we walk closely with God, he makes us great too, giving us the power to live remarkable lives.
Vulnerability is usually not the first thing we associate with being strong, but the Bible tells us true strength actually comes from embracing our weaknesses.
