He is faithful no matter what. No matter what you go through and no matter how far you feel from him or how hard the hardships are that you have to go through, if you trust in God he will not fail you. He is faithful. He has plans for you and loves you.
If God has told us to do it, he will equip us to...

Your love
…is as endless as the sky
And I am a balloon
Floating, up, up,
getting lost in your love

So often my heart is tense
and I grip the wheel as if I have control
In my mind, I try to get a grip
on these things that are tearing me apart
But you whisper directly into my heart,
“I love you, my child.”
But I’m terrible
I am a monster
worried to my core
my thoughts go crazy
and…
“I…

does my help come from there?

– Psalm 121
We should never trust a lesser power than God himself. But not only is he all-powerful, he also watches over us. Nothing diverts or deters him. We are safe, We never outgrow our need for God’s untiring watch over our life.

Pruning...
Pruning my diseased house plant (which now looks a right sad state) reminded me that God sometimes purposely sabotages the bits of our lives, or the direction our lives are going, that will bring us disease, or will hinder us from growing.
It hurts at the time, because all we see is God chopping away at a bit of us- we don’t see the fuller picture; that it’s all done in love. I...

Nothing compares to the Spirit
If you can, spend some time alone with God now, lock the door, put some worship music on, get down on your knees, raise your arms, bow your head, whatever you want, and ask God to fill you with His spirit. He won’t disappoint. His spirit is literally the best thing ever.
I have found nothing that compares to this, so this I must live for
– I give everything to you, God

Letting go of everything- holding on to God: that...
I’d been feeling like I was having a lukewarm moment these last few days so I prayed to God asking him to strengthen my faith, whatever it took. Trials and suffering are coming to me now, but also is the ability to withstand them. I’m learning to die to myself, and trust in God through everything. He is everything.
