@BethMooreLPM I just finished your memoir & we have so much in common. Not necessarily circumstances, but heart and spirit.
I've known about you for years but just recently began to dig into your studies and books (I was kinda busy homeschooling & raising a house full of kids)😅

Wicked people prosper because they don’t play fair.

[Christin @ChristinSlade]

Because of God's great love for us and His amazing desire to be in relationship with us, he gave us His Word to know His love for us, how to love him in return, and how to pour that love out on others.

@faithwording @BethMooreLPM Who will speak up in Jesus’ name about broken systems that are seriously harming people? Jesus did this to the Pharisees. He didn’t ignore it. He addressed it.

Our thoughts have incredible power. They can spur us forward or keep us stuck.

They have the power to free us or enslave us.

[Christin @ChristinSlade]

I really don't think God wants us to live messy lives and just "rest in Him".

He is a very orderly and detail-oriented God and He calls us to be set apart. He desires that we live peaceful lives, free of chaos, clutter, and confusion.

[Christin @ChristinSlade]

@Matt_Pinner Absolutely.

[Christin @ChristinSlade]

Peace grows when prayer comes first, not last. Don’t save your prayers for emergencies—make them the rhythm of your life.

[Christin @ChristinSlade]

Don’t follow what feels right. Follow what is right. And that’s defined by His Word.

[Christin @ChristinSlade]

You don’t have to earn quiet with God. He’s already waiting in the stillness.

@jpegsupreme @MattWalshBlog So? They were different men with different callings on their lives. One was more forward-facing to the public. That's all. That doesn't make the sniper's life or death less significant.

[Christin @ChristinSlade]

The greatest commandments are to love God and love people.

Love God = being obedient in heart, soul, mind, and strength

Love your neighbor as yourself = seeking their good as you would your own

[Christin @ChristinSlade]

When you love others, you love God.

[Christin @ChristinSlade]

@ShoelessTX @thescottbarber Yes, forgive. But don't give him another pastoral position. Leadership positions like pastoring are held at a higher standard. He broke trust. <3

@jenniferwilkin Looking forward to this!

[Christin @ChristinSlade]

Some truths are hard to hear. But they are truths we need to hear. Avoiding the truth doesn’t make it go away—it only puts you further away.

[Christin @ChristinSlade]

@philvischer And it has for some time, been waning.

[Christin @ChristinSlade]

I think we need to go back to the basics of what defines a Christian.

What defines love and hate.

What defines good and evil.

According to God’s Word and not our own feelings or understanding. 💜

[Christin @ChristinSlade]

@anothercohen That's messed up.

[Christin @ChristinSlade]

The only way to go deeper with God is to deny ourselves, because intimacy with Him requires surrender, humility, and obedience. You can’t hold on to self and fully walk with God at the same time.
