There's no sense in improving your marriage until you are secure with God.
I don't want to lose the awe we get to help another human being.
Parents are supposed to instruct their kids. It doesn't mean they necessarily have that gift of teaching.
I've grown up in a generation that questions God for setting boundaries. Does He have the right to set boundaries? I've grown up in a generation that thinks where meeting with a God is an ordinary thing.
Some people say I would love to take a selfie with Moses. Do you understand the gap between Moses and God?
You have access to the Tent Of Meeting.
You and I are not allowed to tell Him how much He can hate it (sin).
Multi-tasking is keeping me from whole-hearted worship.
Lukewarm people will serve God and others, but there are limits to how far they will go or how much time, money, and energy they are willing to give.
If I have a script, I tend to stick to it even if God may be leading me elsewhere in the moment.
God gave me the same power He gave Jesus. I ask myself daily, Why do I waste such a priceless gift?
The disciples obey because that's what people do when someone rises from the dead and gives instructions.
Obsessed people are more concerned with obeying God than doing what is expected or fulfilling the status quo. A person who is obsessed with Jesus will do things that don't always make sense in terms of success or wealth on this earth.
People who are obsessed with Jesus live lives that connect them with the poor in some way or another. Obsessed people believe that Jesus talked about money and the poor so often because it was really important to Him.
