Spirituality not only resists the pressure to fit in with the world but also rises above it.
Personal conviction is something internal that guides the way we live our lives
One of the many great things about having a personal friendship with God is that he satisfies.
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.
As we walk closely with God, he makes us great too, giving us the power to live remarkable lives.
It helps to remember an important quality of Jesus — that he is always with us.
Jesus can teach us how to break free from a frustrating, unsatisfying, and rule-dominated experience of Christianity to find a real relationship with God.
What the Parable of the Great Banquet teaches us about God’s invitation is to be part of his Kingdom.
When we get “used” to being a Christian and know what the Bible says, we end up reading and analyzing the Scriptures without seeing God for who he is. The power and hope the scriptures talk about only comes with a real and engaging relationship with God.
Without God giving us the strength to keep pushing through, we will become discouraged and fail under pressure.
