It's not always easy to admit to ourselves or others when we have given up on something
Guilt, pain, and failure are three of the most difficult experiences in our spiritual 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.
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 need to acknowledge what is wearing us out, especially the ways in which we become focused on rules and behaviors.
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 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.
The holidays are a time to celebrate hope, and there's nothing greater than the hope God brings with the birth of Jesus.
