Trying to obey and serve God before we've come to love Him can be exhausting.

A broken heart heals when we allow the healing to go as deep as the wound went

I have to have a daily, vibrant relationship with Jesus in order to survive that process toward healing.

A head full of biblical knowledge without a heart passionately in love with Christ is terribly dangerous - a stronghold waiting to happen. The head is full, but the heart and soul are still unsatisfied.

I don't just commit sin. Apart from God, I am sinful. My problem is not just what I do; it's who I am without His nature.

Sometimes you have to hold tight to what God has already said because you can get so clouded over emotionally that you can no longer rely on what feels right or wrong.

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