5 ways to make our spirits bright, no matter what
The uncertainty of the pandemic can take a toll, but a few simple steps will rebuild your faith.
The first step to increasing our faith is identifying how unbelief has gripped us and then deciding to have a defining moment.
Confronting the moments when we think, act, respond, and make decisions as if God were not real and present in our lives.
The idea of control gives us the illusion that we can prevent, manage, and will our lives towards certain outcomes.
God brings stability and support when we feel like we’re spinning out of control.
The Bible teaches how to build confidence in God, not self.
When we live with a genuine faith in God, we are not afraid to dream, imagine, sacrifice, or take risks. Our confidence is in the God of Scripture, whose presence and power flow through those who have chosen to believe.
Faith makes the impossible possible. Our relationship with God should produce the kind of faith that moves mountains.
There are many things that aim to undermine our faith: our guilt, different diagnoses, depression, anxiety, fear, and various circumstances. God wants to build our faith and confidence to be so strong it can handle anything thrown our way.
When we get burned out by the exhaustion of our human efforts, we will soon leave the church, and in time, leave God as well.
