Some of us feel defeated, empty, or dead inside. Or maybe we're alive, but not really living. When God's Spirit enters your life, everything changes. You feel alive, forgiven, and loved by God—and you experience peace.
It's so easy to believe that once I find my spouse, get that promotion or shake this anxiety—then I will be completely satisfied. But, it's only Jesus who can quench our thirst and remind us we are loved deeply by Him—exactly as we are.
Who do you follow? And not just on Instagram or Twitter—but who has your trust in real life? It's easy to get caught in the trap of being a Jesus consumer instead of a Jesus follower. We expect signs and wonders, but aren't willing to take on the cost that faith often requires.
You know that time you did that one bad thing? It was so bad you can't even say it out loud? If people find out, what will they think? Jesus didn't give up His life so you could hang onto one past sin or mistake. Despite the mess we make of our lives, God loves us.
Sometimes we can't see what God wants us to see. What might God be trying to show you?
So many voices are clamoring for your attention these days. Who do you listen to—and can you distinguish God's voice above the noise?
We all strive to live productive, purposeful lives. God prunes and shapes our stories—but we have to stay connected to Him to continue to grow.
Every person matters to God, but we often have different opinions and beliefs—so how can we live in unity when we don't always agree? When we reach across the line that divides us, we can make it easier for people to know Jesus loves them, too.
