...there is still a need for those of us nestled deep within the Christian bubble to look beyond the status quo and critically assess the degree to which we are really living biblically.

Yes, it is God who works in you. And, yes, there is work for you to do. Yes, the Spirit empowers you to do the work. And, yes, you do the work.

If I have a script, I tend to stick to it even if God may be leading me elsewhere in the moment.

Christ can come back at any time so the one thing you want to have in your life is a focused prayer time.

...I don't have to worry about not meeting His expectations. God will ensure my success in accordance with His plan, not mine.

I want to train my kids so where they are the only believers they can stand on their own two feet and teach others.

When we work for Christ out of obligation, it feels like work. But when we truly love Christ, our work is a manifestation of that love, and it feels like love.
