The key to happiness isn’t to lower your expectations so that you won’t be disappointed... but to raise your expectations in the presence, power, and faithfulness of God!
@KJRichards We went yesterday! It was crazy but we didn’t have to wait long to checkout. AND we got a pumpkin pie before they were out! Two years since we’ve gotten one!!
Isn’t it remarkable that Big Tech can freely censor people with ideology they disagree with, Go Fund Me can shut down campaigns for people & events they dislike, Target & Amazon can pull books with thoughts they oppose, but a Christian who declines to bake a cake is a BIGOT?
One really wonderful thing about God getting you through something you are certain you didn’t have it in you to survive is that you no longer sit around wondering whether or not He’s real.
Everyday you have to take steps forward toward what you really want in life. Sometimes, that means giving up and sacrificing what you want right now for what you want most later in life. Short term sacrifice produces long term gain!
You can be both confident and humble. Humble knowing there is a God and it’s not you. Confident knowing you were made in God’s image and He has a plan for your life.
