God is not a God who tolerates you. He is a God who loves you. He is a God who desires you.

Paul Washer

Closeness to God isn’t about the situation you’re in. It’s not about how you feel, or where you’ve been, or what you’ve done. It’s about obedience. How far you’re willing to hear His word and put it into practice. Closeness to God isn’t an emotion, or a memory, or a set of circumstances.

Closeness to God is a daily devotion to do the things He asks of you. It’s that simple.

I want to encourage you not to allow a fear of stepping out of the will of God to paralyze you. Trust me, if you take a wrong turn, God will not hesitate to lead you back to where He wants you to be. As long as your heart is seeking God’s heart, you will quickly get back on course.- Christine Caine

“Go and love someone exactly as they are. And then watch how quickly they transform into the greatest, truest version of themselves. When one feels seen and appreciated in their own essence, one is instantly empowered.”

It’s scary but it’s necessary

“Anytime you’re gonna grow, you’re gonna lose something. You’re losing what you’re hanging onto to keep safe. You’re losing habits that you’re comfortable with, you’re losing familiarity.”

People think that if you change something in the past it could drastically affect the present, but never really think that what they do in the present could drastically affect the future.

God: I am here today.

God: I was here yesterday.

God: I will be here tomorrow.

God: I’m not going anywhere.

God: I am.

“Instead of a river, God often gives us a brook, which may be running today and dried up tomorrow. Why? To teach us not to rest in our blessings, but in the blesser Himself.”
