Guilt, pain, and failure are three of the most difficult experiences in our spiritual lives
God is the only one who can bring true inner peace into our lives
God will give us a new heart, a new way of thinking, and new strength to move forward
One of the most amazing things about having a relationship with God is he frees us up to be ourselves
God wants to be real to us–he wants us to see him through our own eyes.
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.
God notices what we go through, even if no one else does, and he wants to do something about our pain.
We need to acknowledge what is wearing us out, especially the ways in which we become focused on rules and behaviors.
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.
A lot of the problems we get into in life come because we are searching for love—often in all the wrong places.
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.
The holidays are a time to celebrate hope, and there's nothing greater than the hope God brings with the birth of Jesus.
