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
To truly love God is to value and listen to his Words, just as we would in any other relationship we care about.
One of the many great things about having a personal friendship with God is that he satisfies.
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.
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 is meant to be enjoyed, not just endured or feared.
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.
It helps to remember an important quality of Jesus — that he is always with us.
