Jesus replied, “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All of the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” (Matthew 22:37-40) God has…

Wow, I feel the Holy Spirit on this one. This blog is going to be a little different. I’m going to declare some things over your life. It is no accident you are reading this. God made a way when there seemed to be no way. You are not here by mistake. You are appointed…

The all-or-nothing mentality… what a terrible prison to be in. I tend to struggle with this daily, sometimes. Satan loves to use anything and everything he can to derail us. He is prowling around like a lion looking for whom he may devour (ref. 1 Peter 5:8). “I’m afraid to try my best because what…

Let go and let God. How many times have you heard this saying? I’m sure a few, at least. But do you understand the true power of this statement? The Lord tells us to hand over our burdens and let Him carry it for us because His yolk is easy and His burdens are light…

So, here’s the thing: God never moved; we did. God never loved us any more or any less, but we told ourselves He did. God saw your finish, while you saw your mistakes. Jesus literally died on the cross on your very worst day. Think about the worst mistake you’ve ever made. That’s the person…

What are emotions anyway? Did God not give them to us for a reason? After all, we are made in His image. Emotions are necessary and useful, but they are also dangerous and harmful when we let them run the show. Emotions: a natural instinctive state of mind deriving from one’s circumstances, mood, or relationships…
