Suffering is no excuse to sin, and we cannot let our guard down when we are hurting. We must be vigilant, alert to the host of temptations lurking beneath our grief and distress. https://t.co/cBaInrjMuV
As so often happens, it's not until we come to the end of ourselves that we recognize God's work over our own. When I could barely string a few minutes together in the pew, he showed me that I wasn't there to perform for him. https://t.co/CX3xUxYFD6
God is certainly more than happy—but he’s not less. He is happy and holy. His holiness is a kind of happy holiness, and his happiness is a holy happiness. What we often put asunder, God keeps together. In heaven we will glorify God and enjoy him forever. https://t.co/9gDeXZhbEW
As an image bearer, dignity is God’s intention for you. If you are in Christ, dignity is immovably yours. And yet—it won’t always seem that way. In a post-Eden world, none of us are immune to shame. https://t.co/eQoZ6NCya1
Her mom quoted Ecclesiastes 7:10, “Say not, ‘Why were the former days better than these?’ For it is not from wisdom that you ask this.”

I’m a bicentennial baby, so this has been a milestone year for me, and it feels different than I expected. At a young friend’s bridal shower this summer, her mom gave a beautiful devotional, looking back over her daughter’s life.🧵
She remembered the days of a little girl standing on her daddy’s feet to dance with him, and looked forward to a different kind of daddy/daughter dance after he would give her hand to another man.

Does the reality of Heaven fill you with joy, dread, or boredom?
We all have thoughts and opinions about Heaven. But do they actually match what the Bible teaches?🧵
By asking and answering seven of the biggest questions about Heaven, Stephen Morefield guides readers through Scripture toward a surprisingly good, earthy, and compelling view of Heaven.
And while the word certainty may describe the blue dot of our location, we humans move about in spurts of uncertainty. We hesitate, we doubt, we question our significance.

When immigrants crossed the sea for Ellis Island, imagine if their relatives could have confirmed their arrival with a location app. To know with certainty that they had landed safely.🧵
Yet as we approach two decades since the invention of the digital blue dot, perhaps we no longer marvel at the precision geospatial expert William H. Tewelow calls our “circle of certainty” (Tewelow 2026).
A few months ago I officiated a wedding in Virginia. Virtually any direction I looked the Blue Ridge Mountains were in view. Being born and raised in Florida, I found their impressive size intimidating. https://t.co/Ocwj55eYWa
Over eight years ago, I gave birth to our first child. This month, I experienced a first in my years of motherhood—I kissed goodbye to all four of my children as they went off to school. One boarded the wheelchair lift and rose into the bus with a smile. https://t.co/b30jXA4eyf
