All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work. 2 Timothy 3:16-17 You must be bad before you can be good, and you must be wrong before you can be right.Continue reading “Being Wrong is Alright”

Walk in the Spirit, Not Your Emotions
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. Galatians 5:22-23 People can be highly frustrating. Someone cuts us off in traffic or speaks to us with disrespect, and our flesh immediately wants to respond with the same energy we’ve beenContinue reading “Walk in the Spirit, Not Your Emotions”
Not Luck, It’s Jesus
And we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths to those who are spiritual. The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spirituallyContinue reading “Not Luck, It’s Jesus”
Let God Lead
The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps. Proverbs 16:9 Jesus leads us. God’s Word is a light to our path in this dark world. He goes before us and clears the way. He writes our story and calls us to take the proper steps. The map has been provided, and theContinue reading “Let God Lead”
Stay in Your Lane
Peter turned and saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following them… When Peter saw him, he said to Jesus, “Lord, what about this man?” Jesus said to him, “If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you? You follow me!” John 21:20-22 The world says, “Nice guys finishContinue reading “Stay in Your Lane”
Growth Takes Grit
For the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant, but later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it. Hebrews 12:11 Growth hurts. A seed must completely destroy itself to become the tree it was designed to be. To build muscle, the fibers must tear and rebuild. TheContinue reading “Growth Takes Grit”
Hidden But Honorable
Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you. 1 Peter 5:6 We all want to be recognized and respected. When we put in the effort, we crave acknowledgment. But sometimes, our hard work goes unnoticed and unappreciated. That’s okay. Recognition from man isn’t theContinue reading “Hidden But Honorable”
Perspective is Power
You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore. Psalm 16:11 It’s easy to let one bad moment hijack your entire day. One thing goes wrong, and suddenly, everything sucks! Every driver cuts you off. Every person is rude. EveryContinue reading “Perspective is Power”
Divine Direction
I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you. Psalm 32:8 Would you go on a road trip with no directions? Or take a cruise with no destination? Life can feel like that sometimes — a maze with no map. We don’tContinue reading “Divine Direction”
Match God’s Effort
Give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you. Luke 6:38 Go for a walk in nature. Look at the trees. Breathe the fresh air. Watch the waves crashContinue reading “Match God’s Effort”
