God Weighs the Heart: True Motives Matter
Have you ever thought about how we judge our own actions versus how God judges our actions? As some point we are all apt to judge our actions too favorably and to have too lofty an opinion of our own character. While this conceit and self promotion may look great on Facebook and drive a lot of “likes”, how is God judging you?“Every way of a man is right in his own eyes, but the Lord weighs the heart.”Proverbs 21:2 You see, God looks at the heart, and judges of us according to that, of our actions according to our principles and intentions.So, I challenge you to think about the why behind what we are doing and putting out there. Think about the heart and intention behind what you’re doing. In the end, there is only one “like” that matters...Be Nice. Grace Wins.

Right Where You Are
God speaks through events, setbacks, blessings, and everyday circumstances. Life takes patience. Most of the time, the answer is right where you already are. How well we hear Him depends on how willing we are to embrace that.

Reluctant Heroes
No hero in the Bible ever set out to be one. Mary, David, Abraham, they just did what was in front of them. Walk humbly with your God. That's the whole thing, isn't it?

A Love for Truth
When you tell lies, you're not just lying to others, you're lying to yourself, and lying to God. Jesus called lying Satan's native language. Let your love for God be accompanied by a love for truth.
