I used to think God wouldn’t talk to me, but now I know I’m just selective with what I choose to hear.
Words people say not only have a shelf life but have the ability to shape life.
Live a life of conspicuous grace and courageous resolve.
But the kind of love that God created and demonstrated is a costly one because it involves sacrifice and presence. It’s a love that operates more like a sign language than being spoken outright.
Every time we see people as ordinary, we turn the wine back into water.
Surround yourself with prompts that remind you who Jesus is.
I used to think God guided us by opening and closing doors, but now I know sometimes God wants us to kick some doors down.
We keep asking for answers; God keeps sending us people.
I used to think I could shape the circumstances around me, but now I know Jesus uses circumstances to shape me.
God doesn’t break things so He can fix them; He fixes broken things so He can use them.
I used to think I could learn about Jesus by studying Him, but now I know Jesus doesn’t want stalkers.
Jesus lets us be real with our life and our faith.
Be ambitious about things that last.
I used to think JESUS motivated us with ultimatums, but now I know He pursues us in LOVE.
Most of our decisions are driven by either love or fear. Figure out who’s doing the talking, then decide what you’ll do.
Grace works that way. It’s a kind word from a gentle person with an impossible prayer. It’s a force sometimes transmitted best hand to hand in a dark place.
Courageous people feel the same fear everyone else does, they just decide to not be afraid anymore.
Don’t let who you were talk you out of who you are becoming.
The words we speak to each other should leave stretch marks, not bruises. Love is always picky about what it says.
We’ll fill our lives with what we cultivate the most. Plant grace by the acre.
