God's No Is Always For Your Good
When we talk about our struggles and how we are just trying to get through “it” aren’t we really just talking about how we are to deal with God’s NO? I mean think about most of the disappointments you’ve experienced. Probably the one thing they all had in common is they didn’t fit into your plan or what you wanted, right? Yeah, me too. In my life, much like you, I can’t count how many times I’ve gotten the “No” from God. And at the time it never seemed to make much sense. Never does. But when I looks back I can see that each one saved me from a pain I couldn’t see at the moment. The pain may have been financial trouble, relationship disasters, or unnecessary risk. (Not my Motocross risks, I still take those)I couldn’t understand it in the moment, but afterward, down the road and past the short-term pain of hearing another no, I could see the benefit and thank God for His abundant wisdom.God’s no is always, always for your good.“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.”Jeremiah 29:11 Be Nice, Grace Wins!

Always, Always Doing Us Good
You are not defined by your mistakes. God works all things together for good, our problems, hardships, addictions, and grief. He doesn't need goodness to do us good. He makes beauty from ashes.

No Condemnation
Your habits, good or bad, are not who you are. There is no condemnation for those in Christ. An heir inherits all that came before, in Christ we own freedom, it's our right and our God-given legacy.

More Than Enough
Jesus doesn't need the sharpest tool in the shed. Two fish and five loaves, a shepherd's stick, whatever you've got, is more than enough. The Lord specializes in turning failures into successes.
