There’s nothing like being tossed the keys and that’s what Jesus does for us. He didn’t just toss keys at us He tossed purpose to every situation and aspect of our lives. Jesus comes to earth, He starts a movement… then He tosses the keys to you and I. Actually, He first tosses it to 11 of His disciples. It was this MOMENT that started a MOVEMENT.

Joy follows the leader and the leader is the choices we make. In the Bible the ultimate leader, Jesus, made some choices that we should follow. Let’s take a look at them together.

Welcome to our third Digital Preview! We’ve been discussing how God uses the wilderness or waiting seasons to develop us, and that God never wastes a wilderness. God uses the hard and hidden seasons to grow us. Spiritual maturity is formed in obscurity. We grow spiritually in the mundane of life. We have to grow right where we are and right where God has us planted.

Quarantine may be over, but some of you find yourself in a different wilderness. You may have felt unseen in quarantine and now things are reopening and you still feel unseen. But hiddenness is the birthplace of greatness. Your wilderness is God birthing greatness in you!

We tend to live for things in our life rather than from a place of being loved. The one thing though, that we can all live from, is the love of God. What does a life lived from the fullness that comes from God look like?
