I often wonder, if God removes our sins, why do we allow Satan to beat us up for them? Let’s learn what God wants to teach us about this sin in our hearts and then let it go.
“As far as the east is from the west,
so far does he remove our transgressions from us.” Ps. 103:12
When I sit quietly with God instead of trying to figure everything out, He takes my anxiety & replaces it with His peace, wisdom & security.
Lord, I hand this situation over to You. Humble me. Show me what steps to take. And help me to trust You with this every. single. day.
Legalism and liberalism are the same cancer - they are both a denial of the sufficiency of scripture. Liberalism masquerades as love and claims that scripture goes too far. Legalism masquerades as holiness and claims that scripture doesn't go far enough. Reject both.
When culture says, "treat yourself," Jesus says, "deny yourself."
"Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me." -Jesus (Matthew 16:24)
Real faith isn’t a hopeful wish. Real faith is making the decision that no matter the outcome, we’ll choose to see it as God’s perfect answer.
Through the good. Through the not so good. And even through the down right awful—we will trust God.

When feelings of inadequacy come creeping in, let’s park our mind in God’s Truth.
You're not inadequate, sweet friend. You're in progress.
“Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.” Phil. 1:6
I don’t remember 99% of the meals I’ve eaten, but they’ve kept me alive. God uses faithful, forgettable sermons to beautify his bride. - @MattSmethurst

Should He withdraw His eye or hand one moment from you, that moment would be your ruin. Ten thousand evils watch but for such an opportunity to rush in upon you & destroy you & all your comforts. You are too dear to Him to be trusted in any hand but His own. (Deut 33:3) ~ Flavel
