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!

Anyone with the maturity to surrender entirely to God is mature enough for God to use.

The question is whether or not our insecurities are substantial enough to hurt, limit, or even distract us from profound effectiveness or fulfillment of purpose.

When we’ve ceased hearing or changing, we need a new environment.

A high regard for the things of this world always signals a lowering regard for God.

We're stronger and braver TOGETHER. Do not let this world and this narcissistic culture make competitors out of the very people who are meant to be your comrades in arms.

A big difference exists between trying to manipulate God to give us what we want and cooperating with God so He can give us what He wants.
