By digging down deep, we start the process toward having a faith in God that is not easily shaken. However, depth takes work. It is not a personality trait or a natural talent, but rather a skill that must be worked at and developed over time.
God can give us faith and teach us how to love big!
God uses what we are going through to give us the opportunity to build relationships and it is up to us to accept that lesson. We need to believe that God puts us right where we need to be.
Even when we make mistakes and hurt God, he still sticks with us because he loves us. Nothing we do can drive him away.
Being vulnerable with God means being comfortable with our weaknesses because we know God’s power is greater than any of our weaknesses or flaws and that all our strength and courage comes from God. There’s freedom knowing that God loves us no matter what and can make us strong despite our weaknesses or insecurities.
To God, love is the only thing that matters. We can accomplish amazing things, we can be smart or insightful, we can even have faith, but if we don’t love, none of that matters. God wants us to become people who love through anything and everything.
God’s expectation of love is to love the same way he loved us. He taught us to love others by how he loves us.
Humble people have room to love. When we’re humble we are able to love God and others more because we think their lives are equally valuable to our own.
God’s forgiveness and love can soften even our most ungrateful hearts and motivate us to treat others around us with love and compassion.
Deconstructing our traditional views of Jesus to see him as scripture says he really is.
With insecurity, God never responds with criticism. He responds with a purpose to live for something beyond themselves.
These scriptures can help us get a better understanding of who God is and how he can be a place of safety, comfort, and protection.
