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.
When we get our happiness from God, we want to share that happiness with others.
The morning is a precious time to connect with God.
God notices what we go through, even if no one else does, and he wants to do something about our pain.
God commands us not to give into our fear and reminds us that he will never fail us.
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.
God wants to give us the help we need, but we have to be willing to be vulnerable enough to ask him for it.
We'll be vulnerable with God when we believe he loves us, is interested in us, and has a plan for us.
The holidays are a time to celebrate hope, and there's nothing greater than the hope God brings with the birth of Jesus.
