Lifeless life is the very thing Jesus came to rescue us from.
~ Erin M. Straza
We need to retrain our brains, our hearts, and our wills to seek a comfort that truly satisfies.
By extending love and comfort to the broken places around us, we keep watch with Jesus in his sorrow.
What if our common sense has been negatively influenced by our addiction to comfort?
Scarcity mentality measures out life by the ounce, it always concludes that the needs outweigh the resources.
The abundant life Jesus spoke of isn't opposed to the material, but it consists of more than just the material.
When I harvest my life right up to the edges, I have collected every last kernel of blessing.
I have pursued the comfort of things, when all along Comfort is a Person.
Do I believe that God is right here, ready to be my comfort in every situation?
Those very habits promoting emotional distance keep us from experiencing the love we so desperately long for and the love we are meant to give away.
