We've all heard the adages, you know, "change is just a part of life"... "everything is bound to change"... "change is the only constant"... and yet, while those may be true, change can wear many masks -- exciting, frightening, frustrating, heartbreaking, or sometimes, they can fill your heart with joy. We may not always have a choice about the changes that interrupt our lives, but we will always have a choice in how we respond to those changes.

Feelings are such a powerful indicator of where our heart lies. They're an excellent indicator of growth, but they can also hinder growth. We're told so often that our feelings are important, and they are. But when we get in our feelings, sometimes we can't move forward. What do we do when it's not the obstacle but our feelings that stand in our way?

Are you fighting internally and never seeming to get a breakthrough? Come find out more about the perplexity of the human condition and the response of Jesus Christ.

If you've got kids, chances are you've heard the phrase "That's not fair" more than you can count. Isn't it interesting that the idea of fairness isn't something we need to introduce our children to. It's implanted in us from birth and if we're honest, most of us don't grow out of it. However, not only is life not fair, God isn't fair either...and that's a good thing.

This simple statement carries the weight of the world, the triumph of victory and the motivation for service.  No matter what is happening in your life, Palm Sunday truth is significant truth.

It's important in life to make sure we're staying on top of our task manager and meeting all of our due dates. Home projects. Work projects. School projects. There is something so fulfilling about completing any of these. We must be careful not to carry this mentality over towards people though. While projects can be managed, people must be loved and doing so can often require a roofless faith.
