Guilt, pain, and failure are three of the most difficult experiences in our spiritual lives
What matters is we have a God who can always lift us out of the pit
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 doesn’t want any of us to go through storms alone.
Through prayer, we can give God our stressed, afraid, and burdened hearts and find relief.
God notices what we go through, even if no one else does, and he wants to do something about our pain.
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 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.
A lot of the problems we get into in life come because we are searching for love—often in all the wrong places.
In today's Mini Quiet Time we'll look at Psalm 13, one of the psalms where David talked to God about some tough things but comes out closer to God as friends.
