'If you want to get warm you must stand near the fire: if you want to be wet you must get into the water. If you want joy, power, peace, eternal life, you must get close to, or even into, the thing that has them.' C.S. Lewis – at Portsmouth, England
So many people get out of bed at the last second possible. Learn to attack your day on purpose. Get up and give yourself some room to pray, listen and be awakened to God’s eternal purposes before you start the day's mundane activities.

The energy it takes to refrain from entertaining an immature comment is less than the energy it takes to stoop to childish exchanges.
Don't attend every conflict to which you are invited. If the battle isn’t between you and your destiny walk away!
I'm deeply broken in prayer as I call out so many names of so many people going through so much hardship
In a lost, fallen, broken, hurting world I'm thankful waves of grief are met with waves of grace as we continue to look to him. In a fallen world we look to our Risen King

Pride nervously tries to impress people. Humility confidently stands before God.
“The fear of the Lord is a strong confidence…”
(Proverbs 14:26)
Lord help us to hear you fresh and new today!
Listening through the filter of our predetermined conclusions keeps us from hearing fresh new perspectives God desires to reveal. #GoingDeeper #DesiringMore #EternalTruth

It's easy to confuse giftedness with maturity. Just because somebody has a strong gift doesn’t mean they’ve submitted to the process of maturity.
Maturity learns to speak from our scars rather than our wounds.
2 Cor 1:4 He comes alongside us when we go through hard times, and before you know it, he brings us alongside others who are going through hard times so that we can be there for them as God was there for us. MSG

Come from a place of peace and calm or chaos erupts within you, strengthening the storm around you.
Jesus demonstrated that we can be in a storm without allowing the storm to be in you. #PeaceBeStill

Faith without works is dead. Hadn’t really noticed how aggressively James makes this point before, repeating it over and over and over.

God can use something painful to do something purposeful if we invite him in.
Grapes are crushed to make wine. Diamonds are formed under pressure. If you feel under pressure or even crushed, you’re in a powerful place of transformation. Trust the process!
