Who Knows What You Are Going Through?
Paul Tripp says, “Our God of grace intends to make his invisible grace visible by sending people of grace to give grace to people who need grace. His people are meant to be the visible demonstration of his faithfulness.” Then he asks, “will we accept this lavish gift with humility, honesty, and dependency?”
Our Dance with “Distinction”
Dave Harvey has a good word here about the desire for distinction. “I feel it. You probably do as well. Regardless of where we are called to lead, we want our efforts to be fruitful; to make a difference. So far, so good. But there is something we smuggle into our service: We want it to set us apart.“
You Are Not Your Theology
“Was I just in an ongoing ‘cage-stage’ in my 20s? I don’t think so. No, I had a misplaced identity. I had placed my worth in my theology. It makes sense, then, why I felt personally attacked when the differing views of others rubbed against my own.”
Navigating the Challenges of Motherhood with Grace
Christina Fox: “Wherever you are in your motherhood journey—whether in the early, middle, or empty nest years—God meets you where you are. He provides His grace. We see this in the lives of three mothers in the Bible. In each of their circumstances, God provided what they needed and gave them His grace.”

Flashback: Always Read the Story to the End
We sometimes encounter providences that make us believe the book has been closed and all has been lost. Yet when we are pressed, we must not think we have been crushed, but believe that God can still bring about a great redemption.
Your whole life is being determined by what you’re running from, what you’re running to, and who you’re running with.
