No person, possession, profession, or position ever fills the cup of a wounded, empty heart. It's an emptiness only God can fill.
Lysa TerKeurstBecause He's near, we dont have to be anxious or feel out of control. We have peace that rises above any circumstance!
Lysa TerKeurstSaying yes to God isn't about perfect performance, but rather perfect surrender to the Lord day by day. Your obedience becomes radical the minute this desire turns into real action. Radical obedience is hearing from God, feeling His nudges, participating in His activity, and experiencing His blessings in a way few people ever do.
Lysa TerKeurstNot reaching back for what was lost in my yesterdays. And not reaching for what I hope will be in my tomorrow. But living fully with what is right in front of me. And truly seeing the gift of this moment.
Lysa TerKeurstDon't get so locked in to your overwhelming schedule that you haphazardly spend your soul.
Lysa TerKeurstGod can take what Satan meant for shame and use it for His glory. Just when we think we've messed up so badly that our lives are nothing but heaps of ashes, God pours His living water over us and mixes the ashes into clay. He then takes this clay and molds it into a vessel of beauty. After He fills us with His overflowing love, He can use us to pour His love into the hurting lives of others.
