The day you stop loving your people, they're not your people anymore.

When you come to the place where you can't do anything else, you must stand still and believe... When you can't do anything, let God do it all.

A rebellion against God, even as believers, is fueled by the toxic fumes of unbelief.

The marquee scrolling across our minds trying to reinterpret life reads: "God-Against-Us." This becomes the dominant lens through which our flesh interprets life. We no longer give our loving Father the benefit of the doubt. Instead, we view every event as conclusive proof that God is against us.

It doesn't matter what has happened, better things are coming. God's plan produces hope in me.

Only when we have done all we knew to do can we wait by faith for God to do what only He can do.

I don't have everything I want but I have everything I need. That's contentment.
