If your world crumbles without it, you probably worship it.
Either you will determine truth by your feelings or truth will determine your feelings. Be careful following feelings alone.
Society tells what to do for a living. College tells us how to make a living.
Only God gives us a reason for living.
3 very Important questions. What's our purpose? What's our problem? What's the solution? 1 wrong answer messes up everything.
Keep praying. When you stop praying you stop hoping.
If God must do whatever we ask him to do when we want Him to do it, God is not sovereign we are.
-Todd Wagner
God owns everyone and everything. All we have was entrusted to us for His purpose & glory. So basically sin is embezzlement.
Christianity is not karma. Jesus took our punishment, so for those of us who trust in Him, our punishment was His death.
Ephesians 1 is so rich, and according to it so is every Christian.
Prayer isnt where we change God, but He changes us. Instead of praying for OUR desires, lets pray He burden us with HIS.
Sometimes cancer cells appear normal. Sometimes norms in our life are cancerous.
"Sin doesn't keep Gods grace from us. It's what brings Gods grace to us." -Anthony Carter

Another way to say it. "Sin doesn't keep Jesus away from us. It's why He comes to us." John 3:17
To reject His forgiveness is to reject God.
Do you pray for the places/people you are always rushing to help? Or do you subconsciously think you are their savior?
The problem with our desires usually isn't found in WHAT we want, but that we want it too much.
God creates & rests, satisfied in his work. We'll never be satisfied in our work so find rest/satisfaction in him. Heb. 4.
Being broken, low, and poor in spirit can be to our benefit.
Matt 5:3
It's still wrong to disobey in your heart though you obey with your actions.
We don't need a new marketing strategy for Christianity. We need real compassion and faith people can see.
Never give your body away to someone you haven't given your life away to. Marriage matters.
Some are more concerned with our reputation than our character. Instead of trying to act changed. Pray that you will be changed.
