One of the most important things that we as Christians can do is regularly fill our hearts and minds with God's Word. Bible Gateway is one great tool available that makes reading and studying Scriptures readily available to each of us at any moment.

I also came to understand that our authenticity (or lack thereof) is made evident by the fruit that our life is bearing.

It's not possible to be close to God without thinking about the lost. They never leave His mind.

Sometimes, all you need to do is pull back a little to protect your heart, not turn your back entirely.

We were never created to settle for mere religion. Jesus did not die so that we could have a religious belief system - but rather a life-giving relationship with our Father.

We want to change the world, but we aren't willing to change ourselves.

We also need to be willing to make room in our lives for the impending birth of our dreams.
