Every obstacle in life is an opportunity. What if we viewed life that way? Now, I’ll admit. I have a long way to go in being really good at this. But I do believe that every obstacle in life is an opportunity. The first opportunity we have is an opportunity to grow. In fact, there is no growth witho…
Here is a declaration of Truth I say over my life. Truth statements have become one of the key spiritual disciplines which help me replace the lies of the enemy with the Truth of God’s Word. Every one of my declarations is rooted in Scripture: Proverbs 29:25 Fearing people is a dangerous trap, but t…
“I’m too sinful to be in Your presence.” Have you ever felt that way in your faith? Whether it’s a past sin that you can’t get out of your memory or something you recently did that causes shame, do you ever feel like you’re too sinful to be in the presence of Christ?

What does the truth say about me? Have you ever read something in Scripture that you know you’ve read dozens of times, but it comes alive like it’s the first time? There was one verse not too long ago that did just that for me. I love how the Bible, even though read over dozens of times, can be bran…
