Confessions of a Wanderer
The thing is, God loves us too much to let us stray from His calling upon our lives. At times, he has to correct us in order to redirect our vision to align with His, which sometimes requires some hard and painful lessons.
You Are Loved
You are not the sum of your weaknesses, failures, or inadequacies – you are the sum of God’s love.
Pour It Out
This is a wonderful promise to those of us who teach and sow God’s word; as we pour into others, He pours into us.
The Other Side
God’s purpose for your life is not the ocean floor but stronger faith and a victory so remarkable that when your storm draws its last breath, your heart cries out in reverence, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him? He is the One who will see me safely to the other shore.”
May We Never Forget

I am not a victim of circumstances. In Him, I am a victor despite my circumstances. My joy lies not in what the day contains but in the One who contains my days.

What’s Your Story?
Truth is, you have a story worth telling. The story of how God sought you, forgave you, and lavished His grace upon you. The story of how God broke your chains and turned your life around.
The Beloved
You are not just another face in the crowd; you are His Beloved. Know it. Believe it. Claim it. Live it.
