One way God helps us out of our pain is by guiding us to help someone else out of theirs
By staying close to God and following his guidance, we can fill our homes with joy, love, intimacy, and resilience.
Thinking about others is a deliberate choice, and it’s the most inspiring way we can live our lives.
God is our greatest example of love, and from him, we can learn how to love the people around us
The heart is powerful enough to determine the course of our lives: what we feel, what we say, and what we do.
God doesn’t want any of us to go through storms alone.
We need to acknowledge what is wearing us out, especially the ways in which we become focused on rules and behaviors.
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.
Though Zacchaeus came with baggage, Jesus’ decision to love anyway completely changed Zacchaeus’ life for the better.
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.
