God is loving you into better relationships. He is loving you into being a more loving person. The more we grow in love, the less offended we become. The less offended we become, the more easily and quickly we get healed when people do wound us.

Your primary calling is to worship ... to pursue celebration and rejoicing as a way of life.

When God’s putting His finger on the part of your life that’s not working, He’s pointing to your next miracle.

Problems are invitations. They allow us to have encounters and experiences that enable us to discover who God is for us.

When you’re not fully trusting in the Lord you’re concerned mostly about rescue. “I’m a Christian, get me out of here!” And the Lord is saying, “You’re kidding, right? I want to teach you who you are in this situation!” In some of our situations, He gives us power and authority to move. In other situations He gives us patience because that works just as powerfully, it’s just going to take a few extra weeks.

The problem is not our situation but our perception of our situation

It is in our DNA to create space, to open up safe places, and to change the atmosphere where we live.
