Nothing steals God's glory more than worrying believers who are driven through life by fear

---

It’s at the heart of everything we struggle with in life: longing to be valuable, to be accepted, to be prized, to be worth something to somebody, to have a life that matters, and God’s saying ‘You matter! I didn’t make anyone else like you. You’re not a reprint or a lithograph. You’re a one-of-a-kind, original creation of God.

But to mean it when I say that I want my life to count for His glory is to drive a stake through the heart of self - a painful and determined dying to me that must be a part of every day I live.

---

It's a big world. Don't get trapped by tiny dreams and feeble problems. Time for big prayers and bold faith.

---

As an overflow of my life - the wake I leave behind with my little dash on earth - I want others to fall in love with Jesus and know of His great hope and purpose for their lives.

---

Don't overcomplicate God's will. Just stay connected to Jesus. Love Him. Look into His eyes. He will lead. Follow. Repeat.

---

Accept the fact that you're never gonna be someone else and embrace the fact that the world needs you as God made you to be.

---

Don't dwell on your insufficiency, but dwell on God's all-sufficiency.

People say all the time 'I don't have a good testimony' because they think their story has to involve some dramatic story of change from 'bad' to 'good'. But Jesus didn't come to save people this way. Sin doesn't make us bad it makes us dead. Jesus came to save by bringing the dead to life. And that's an amazing testimony.

Worry and worship cannot exist in the same space. One always displaces the other. Choose worship.
