Sometimes God allows storms to come together in such a way that they ultimately fulfill something that would never have happened otherwise.

When you walk with Jesus, defeat turns into victory.

God holds his people responsible for righteousness, not for results.

Whether we like it or not, life has a lot of drama and pain. But God is writing a great story. Are we going to let Him? Are we going to trust Him?

It is not about never doubting, it is about coming out on the other side with twice the faith you had going into your doubt.

In my morning time with God, I ask Him to fill all my hollow places with His lavish, unfailing love. This frees me from craving the approval of others and requiring them to fill up my “cup.” Then, if someone takes the time to demonstrate his or her love for me, that's the overflow! I am free to appreciate and enjoy it, but I didn't emotionally require it!

The only reason I can hold up my head is because when He set me free He gave me my dignity back.
