Anxiety is our agitated soul scrambling for control.

To possess dignity is to be worthy of respect. Worthy of high esteem. Absorb this: you are worthy of respect.

Beloved, whatever we are gripping to bring us satisfaction is a lie-unless it is Christ. He is the Truth that sets us free. If you are holding anything in your craving for satisfaction right now, would you be willing to acknowledge it as a lie? Even if you feel you can't let go of it right this moment, would you lift it before Him-perhaps literally lifting your fisted hand as a symbol-and confess it as an idol? God does not condemn you. He calls you.

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?

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 person full of the Holy Spirit cannot be full of self. Pride never accompanies power in the fully yielded life.

No matter whose fault, God sends us through storms so we can land in a place we never would have otherwise.
