Your Mission Starts Where You Are,not Where

We Must Learn To Cast Off Our Anxieties Because We Have So Many Of Them. The World Destroys Spiritual Life By Generating Constant Anxiety. Jesus Said That The Life Of The Gospel Is Choked Out By The Cares Of This World. We Know This To Be True Yet We Are More Chained And Tethered To The World Than Ever Before In The Human Race.

Will You Keep Going When You Don't Know Why? When You Can't Get Any Answers That Would Make The Pain Go Away, Will You Still Say, 'my Lord,' Even Though His Ways Are Not Clear To You? Will You Keep Going-with All The Grace And Grit And Faith You Can Muster-and Live In Hope That One Day God Will Set Everything Right. Will You Trust That God Is Good? ... Ultimately, The Choice Everyone Faces Is The Choice Between Hope And Despair. Jesus Says, 'choose Hope.'

When We Live In The Love Of God, We Begin To Pay Attention To People The Way God Pays Attention To Us.

Skeptics Would Rather, Even At Their Own Expense, Appear To Be Right Than Take The Risk Of Trusting.

One Reason Why We Fail To Hear God Speak Is That We Are Not Attentive. We Suffer From What Might Be Called 'spiritual Mindlessness.'
