Thoughts!
On intimacy!
Come near to God and he will come near to
you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. - James 4:8
Some of us are in a whole other room while
God is waiting for us in the next room. We can't be far from God and expect intimacy.
On Fear! (False expectation appearing real)
When David faced Goliath he didn't talk about how dangerous
Goliath was- he talked about how great his God is.
On tough times!
God didn't promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, sun
without rain, but He did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears and light for the way.
Remember the 3 Hebrew boys? God didn't put out the
fire, instead, he put Jesus in with them.
It's not about all the bad things that are happening
with you, but who is in there with you?
On waiting on the Lord!
Waiting time is developmental, it is not detrimental
On decisions!
If you haven't talked to God about it yet, then
it must not mean that much to you.
On Hopelessness!
Just because it's out of your control does not mean
God is not in control. Woman with the issue of blood - Matthew 9:20–22
On dealing with people!
They are the best and the worst you’ve created -
J. McReynolds
Greater is He that is in you than he who
is in the world. — 1 John 4:4
On protecting the mind!
Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the
wellspring of life” (Proverbs 4:23).
Theory of displacement!
