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

I'm a common woman sharing common problems seeking common solutions on a journey with an uncommon Savior.

One person can bring favor to many during the storm.

Sometimes truth is costly but not nearly as costly as deception.

When we live to the glory of God, we show His goodness living through us instead of just ourselves.

God is not harsh; He is holy. He is not selfish; He is sovereign. He is not unfeeling; He is all-knowing. Like David, we need to come to know Him, and respect Him; and, like David, we will love Him more.

Setbacks, on the other hand, just make us feel weak and stupid: I should have conquered this by now. I happened on a question not long ago that oerfectly expresses this mentality: How many times must I prove myself an idiot?
