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
Negative thoughts about ourselves can be debilitating and discouraging
God's thoughts are higher than and completely different from ours
As we let God take care of us, his kindness and comfort will help us relax
God wants to attach to us, and he longs for us to attach to him.
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
God wants to give us lasting confidence and teaches us how to get it through his early disciples.
The heart is powerful enough to determine the course of our lives: what we feel, what we say, and what we do.
Even if we haven't arrived yet, we believe we can get there because Jesus believes in us.
God wants to be real to us–he wants us to see him through our own eyes.
