Obedience and Surrender
My son, give me your heart, And let your eyes observe my ways. Proverbs 23:26 What does it look like to obey God? I mean to really obey what He asks of you? Does it look like taking control of your fleshly desires? Exchanging your hopes and dreams for God's? Asking Him for His thoughts...

Your Glory

Time to Pause
Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him. Psalm 37:7 Stop walking forward. Pause, just for a moment. Sometimes we push forward, forgetting to look behind us. To remember. To refocus. To pause. While you're stopped, look around. What do you see? There are little bits of glory all around you. Bursts of God's miracles in your life. The awe of creation. The miracle of life. Things that make you smile, because God knows you. Now look behind you. Do you see God's faithfulness over the years? There's...
