Fervent prayer keeps your true identity in focus.

If you feel an overwhelming urge to act spontaneously, pull in the reins

We can't anticipate and provide for life's trials, but the Lord can and does. The Lord wants us to thirst not after a quick fix to our problems but after the life-altering refreshment of His provision.

Contentment is the equilibrium between the enjoyment of life now and the anticipation of what is to come.

Yet some of the most faithful, effective Christians I know are those who are living out their quiet calling to the few in their home, to their fledging church, or to the homeless under a bridge in their city. Nothing is meager or insignificant about that.

God is the God of 'right now.' He doesn't want you sitting around regretting yesterday. Nor does He want you wringing your hands and worrying about the future. He wants you focusing on what He is saying to you and putting in front of you ... right now.

Now is the time to know that God is able. To connect your current reality with God's present ability.
