To kill the spider we must: gaze at God, glance at the lie. Turn up the truth about you and turn down the noise inside of you.

A spider is a lie that you've come into agreement with and a cobweb is a medicator that brings false comfort to that lie. Jesus meets you where you are, not where you pretend to be.

God isn't looking for obvious people; He's looking for available people. God can use what we have. God can use who we are.

You cannot be free from what you're unwilling to confront. When we have the courage to confront our oppressor, God frees us from the fears that would rob us of life itself.

If you're going to work your wilderness, you need to let your wilderness work.
