Defined by God's Love, Not Your Mistakes
Listen, I’ve been rambling on for the past week about our bad habits and how God can remove them from us and restore us. So check this out;“Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline, so be zealous and repent. Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me. The one who conquers, I will grant him to sit with me on my throne, as I also conquered and sat down with my Father on his throne. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.'"”Revelation 3:19-22 You are not defined by your mistakes or your mishaps or how well you did at school, work, racing, flying or whatever. Because if Christ is in you then you are an infinite number of hopeful and wonderful possibilities, all headed towards healing and joy!God hears you and will deliver you from you troubles. He may not do it the way we hope, or think we need. And He rarely, if ever, does it in the time frame we pray for. But God is always, always doing us good. He will use our problems to do us good. He will use our hardships to do us good. He will use our addictions to do us good. He will use our grief to do us good. He doesn’t need goodness to do us good. He is a God who can make beauty from ashes and joy from heaviness.We belong to God and we are loved by Him. Let that wash over you today and have an awesome day. Be Nice. Grace wins.

Like a Father's Arm
Today is short and sweet because God's love is simple. His love endures forever. I felt it yesterday at treatment, like a father's arm around a son. I am humbled with gratitude.

Have This Mind
On Friday we talked about choosing humility before our feet hit the floor. Today, Paul shows us why. Jesus emptied Himself, that's the bar.

What Does It Matter?
When you find yourself judging someone else's motives for sharing the gospel, ask what Paul asked from his prison cell: what does it matter? As long as Christ is preached.
