The question is not whether we have a sense of divine purpose, but how we’re trying to satisfy it.
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.
But how do we become a light that shines brightly before others? The first step is making sure we choose not to live in darkness ourselves.
How to go from apathetic to inspired.
Building a relationship with God means that we have a lifelong opportunity to start over every day
Building self-discipline is what gives us the ability to bridge the gap between aspiration and victory.
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.
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.
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.

God wants us to have friends we can be completely ourselves with, but this can only happen if we let go of control.
