In the midst of good and evil, man is not good. We are all sinners. But He is always there for us. That is the beauty of redemption. He is faithful. He hears us. He is willing. We can have hope for this.

Feeling done? Burnt out? Shut it all down. "Eat". Read His word. Pray. Listen. Spend time with Him.

If you sow sparingly, you will reap sparingly. Your time, your love, your effort. When a relationship is reaping sparingly, don't stop giving. You stop giving and you will reap NOTHING.

Discipleship- wanting to become like Jesus, the master, the King, learning from Him, wanting to be more like Him.

Being a disciple is not easy. Not everyone goes into discipleship. Being a disciple brings correction into our lives, and not every believer wants correction.

God has given you time, talents, resources. USE them. Even if it fails, it's better then going unused.

God responds to giving. God responds to faith. Faith is the currency of heaven...fear is the currency of hell.

Giving is more than money. It's your time, your talents, your resources. When you give your time, your talents, your resources it's a mark of maturity. Being stingy is a mark of immaturity. Better to give than to receive.

You're gonna be weary sometimes. You're gonna wanna quit.

Keep going.

Keep cultivating.

When you grow weary, come back, fill yourself with His spirit.

What does it mean to be a disciple? What does it look like?

Can you sing and pray?

Can you sing a prayer?

David was a prime example that these things are possible.

Be eager in our suffering for the blessing that is to come. The light at the end of the tunnel.

There is no destiny or dynasty or riches and glory outside of Him. All that is outside of Him is darkness. Do not search for the light in dark places.

Heroes don't start off as heroes. When we read stories of heroes and their mighty deeds, that is the end of their story. At the beginning they were desperate, broken men.
