One of the enemy's sneaky attacks against the joy of our salvation is to put us in the spiral of self-condemnation.

Peace is not passive; it's powerful.

What we have to understand is that Jesus is not offering to make our problems disappear; he's offering to give us rest for our souls while he does the heavy lifting.

Peace is about going deeper in God. It's about trusting him and yielding our worries and fears to the Holy Spirit - who is already at work inside us. It's about placing our focus heavenward instead of fixing our focus on our struggles

It's one thing to say so in a prayer, but it's a whole other thing to match those prayers in obedience.

A lament is an act of worship, a faith statement of trust, in the face of difficulty. It's a wonderfully honest way to acknowledge our trouble to God as we also acknowledge our hope is in him.

We need to join the war Jesus waged against fear and it's twin sister, worry.

Every life you touch, every difference you make, every prayer you pray makes the world a better place.

Sometimes it takes a loss before we can understand what it means to be found.
