Religion focuses on what I do, while relationship centers on what Jesus did. Religion is about me. Relationship is about Jesus

Some decisions are obviously much more inconsequential than others. For example, let's say you choose the blue shirt over the red one; not much is likely to change. Red meat over white meat once a week won't likely make a huge difference in your health. But if you believe that grilled chicken is healthier than a cheeseburger, your lunch choice might cause you to pause; especially if you know that the cheeseburger also comes with fries and a large chocolate shake.

Your life is too valuable, your calling too great, & your God too awesome to waste your life on what doesn't matter.

Your brain does not understand what you are capable of. There is way more inside of you than you can imagine.

The things that make us sad, the things that make us righteously angry, or the things we care about that others don’t are often a key that unlocks our reason for living. It’s our burden.

In each big decision, we'll always make them by faith.

God often guides by what He doesn't provide.
