Children are born with a desire to have meaning. Give them Jesus, and they will have it eternally.

Sometimes God's sudden turn in your life feels like a detour, but in actuality it is the straightest way to your destiny!
It's better to have no control and be in the center of God's plan for your life than have total control and be completely lost to your destiny.
We must all cultivate our own creativity because we each have a God-given imagination that has the ability to bless generations and eternity.
The best time to seek God is when it's really hard to find the time because that's when we probably need Him the most.
Be comforted! If there are people who can't stand to be around you, just remember that darkness hates light and deceit hates truth.
People can change their external lives with religion, but a lasting internal change only happens through a daily relationship with Jesus.
An imagination submitted to the movement of the Holy Spirit is a powerful tool in the hands of God to write testaments of His glory.
God created us in His image, and He gave us an imagination with His imprint to create things for His glory!
No one is perfect. We all need a Savior. The more honest we become about our flaws, the more we'll reach out for the grace and love of Jesus.
Walking with Jesus is many times like walking in the eye of the storm--inner peace in the middle of chaos.
Sin dies in us when we stay alive in Jesus Christ.
People love to quote that Jesus is love, yet they neglect to mention that He's also King. If you love the King, you will obey Him.
We can love anyone at a safe distance, but loving people in the thick of their mess takes the supernatural love of Jesus working in us.
Your relationship or lack of relationship with God through Jesus Christ continues after your last breath on this earth.
If there were several ways to dwell with a perfect God, God wouldn't have had to leave His glory, entering a dead world to save us.
When our pride usurps Truth, we walk on the shifting sands of relativism, an ego driven reality.
The heart easily commends and condemns itself, depending on our wave like performance. That is why we must base our worth in Jesus alone.
Life is too short not to look beyond it.
I can always pray to God with confidence because my righteous state is a gift given through grace in faith on the cross by Jesus!
Every time I try to be righteous by my own actions, God reminds me my righteousness comes from Jesus alone.
We can position ourselves to receive God's promises, but it will take a lot of stretching, moving, breaking and changing!
The Holy Spirit builds on the smooth ground of humility. That's why God will tear you down in order to build you back up.
I not only want to understand God's revelations, I want to be changed by them.
People visit exposed and vulnerable, writers live there
Faith is the receiver of grace, unbelief is the rejector.
A deeper intimacy with God sharpens our awareness of sin, which causes a stronger need for grace and a freer offering of mercy.
We are going to make mistakes no matter what, so it's better to be strong in faith despite our mistakes than weak in faith because of them.
If we truly believe that we are the righteousness of God through Jesus Christ, our actions would begin to reflect that belief.
Burn God's words into your heart, His thoughts into your mind and His ways into your actions; and you'll have a Spirit-filled life.
I want to see life through a spiritual perspective, so I can make choices that influence eternity.
Pride becomes the blanket transgression that conceals the rest of our sins, allowing us to remain blind to them.
Humility is recognizing the fullness of our sin, so we can embrace the fullness of God's mercy.
Humble me so I do what is right. Break me so I cling to You. Expose me so my motives stay pure.
The hardest thing to do often comes with no earthly reward; but it supernaturally affects eternity, so it turns into huge deposit in heaven.
There are some things that you experience with God that you'll never be able to articulate this side of heaven.
When you find complete acceptance in the Father, you will no longer stress about what others believe, think or say about you.
The ministry found in the corners of one's life should match the ministry that is put on display.
God's glory in our lives has little to do with our sacrifice and everything to do with our surrender.
God's love grounds me while His mystery confounds me. He is a personal yet all-powerful, in me yet around me, creates me yet dies for me.
