Mere nails, though pounded deep, were not enough to keep Jesus on the cross. But love was... and love prevailed.

Don't dwell on your insufficiency, but dwell on God's all-sufficiency.

As an overflow of my life - the wake I leave behind with my little dash on earth - I want others to fall in love with Jesus and know of His great hope and purpose for their lives.

While we were at rest, Christ was in rescue mode. While we were doing nothing, He was doing EVERYTHING. He was down in the depths of the earth fighting for our freedom.

Some of us attend the church on the corner, professing to worship the living God above all. Others, who rarely darken the church doors, would say worship isn't a part of their lives because they aren't "religious." But everybody has an altar. And every altar has a throne.

Gratitude grows from a seed called grace. If you're not grateful you might still be trying to earn what God freely gives.

When you strip all of this down it's just about a God in Heaven who loves you very much. And created in you a heart for Him...Your heart was fashioned by Jesus and for Jesus.
