With God by our side, we can endure and even conquer any trials life throws at us
The heart is powerful enough to determine the course of our lives: what we feel, what we say, and what we do.
God doesn’t want any of us to go through storms alone.
Returning to God is the only way we can stop living for people, stop being afraid of being different, and rediscover what it means to think differently.
We can open our hearts up to him by listening, talking, turning, and committing to being close to him.
We all experience feeling stuck at times, whether it be in hardships, relationship conflicts, failures that follow us wherever we go, or guilt that feels too big for us to carry on our own.
When we love vulnerability, we will open our hearts to God and others.
God wants to give us the help we need, but we have to be willing to be vulnerable enough to ask him for it.
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.
We'll be vulnerable with God when we believe he loves us, is interested in us, and has a plan for us.
In this week's Mini Quiet Time, we'll look at a story where Jesus had to choose to be vulnerable and what came as a result of his decision.
