God Desires That We Become Spiritually Healthy

The Next Time You Feel Rejection's Sting, Remember God's Words To Samuel: "it Is Not You They Have Rejected, But They Have Rejected Me." (1 Sam. 8:7)

You Haven't Been Through One Thing That God Cannot Heal You From.

I Don't Know A Single Person Who Truly Seems To Bear The Mark Of God's Presence And Power In His Or Her Life Who Hasn't Been Asked By God To Be Obedient In A Way That Was Dramatically Painful.

If Jesus Gives Us A Task Or Assigns Us To A Difficult Season, Every Ounce Of Our Experience Is Meant For Our Instruction And Completion If Only We'll Let Him Finish The Work. I Fear, However, That We Are So Attention-deficit That We Settle For Bearable When Beauty Is Just Around The Corner.

...if God Teaches Us Victory In Christ Jesus Day By Day, We Live In The Constant Awareness Of His Greatness And His Sufficiency. Hard Lessons Are Often Long-lasting Lessons. Never Forget That God Is Far More Interested In Our Getting To Know The Deliverer Than Simply Being Delivered.
