The only way to get that hope is by letting go of our need to hide and letting God heal our hurt
One of the defining crises of midlife is refusing to admit the truth to ourselves that we’re getting older.”
Confronting the moments when we think, act, respond, and make decisions as if God were not real and present in our lives.
The New Testament Christians were unstoppable because they had such an unwavering faith, convinced of God’s purpose for them.
When life gets hard and unexpected challenges take their toll, it’s easy to start making compromises.
God wants us to evaluate ourselves by how deep and strong our faith is. He doesn’t evaluate our spiritual condition by looking at how we appear on the surface. The depth of our faith determines how much of a difference we can make in the lives of those around us.
God orchestrates the people we encounter and the relationships we build, so that he can use us to change lives.
God wants to help us move forward from our past and become who we are meant to be and we can learn these spiritual concepts from the Lion King.
We can learn to start each new day aware of the strengths and talents God has given to us, and consider how he wants to work in our lives to change the world.
Often, the challenge that I face is that I get inspired to want to make a difference, but don’t realize that I first must allow God to change me.
