This parable will help us understand what it feels like to be lost and how God responds to that feeling by always trying to bring us home.
Jesus had a relationship with God that gave him peace, power, and purpose in a chaotic world.
Building self-discipline is what gives us the ability to bridge the gap between aspiration and victory.
When we are insecure, it can be easy to feel like we are a “nobody going nowhere.”
With insecurity, God never responds with criticism. He responds with a purpose to live for something beyond themselves.
God loves us and he guides us through discipline and training, just like a father who cares deeply for his children. How and where is God guiding your life?
We are living in a time of fear-inducing chaos, when darkness is rising. We must embrace our responsibility to God and our neighbors to bring the light.
Conquer is a word descriptive of but rarely used to define Jesus. It means “to defeat an enemy, or take control or possession of a foreign land.” In this sense, Jesus comes as the light to conquer a world filled with darkness.
