Are you willing to sacrifice the direction you want to go, the time you want it to take, and the commitment you are willing to give…in order to fully follow Jesus?

Your favorite team, your kid, your house, your hobby…when it's something you believe in, you're passionate about it because it is personal. Don't let the calendar weeks after Easter distract you from making your faith personal.

Shame says, "You're not worthy." Jesus says, "You are."

• How do I walk in a way that deals with the reality of who I am, my brokenness and yet not walk around in shame, hiding, secretly frustrated with me?
• Where can I find a healthy balance walking in the reality of my imperfections but knowing that I have a King who says that I am worthy of the Kingdom?
• What do you think God thinks about you when He thinks about you?

God should be the anchor point of your life.

When we look back over Joseph's story, we can clearly see God's plan for his life before he rose to power in Egypt. The same God that led Abraham and Isaac was leading Joseph all along. Generations of men before Joseph did their part to pass on God's wisdom and guidance to the next generation.

When Joseph's brothers showed up in Egypt, he chose to show them grace. God's love and power shined in this moment, and He turned a mess into a nation saving miracle.

What if God wants to use your life differently than what you had expected?

What would you do if you knew The Lord was with you no matter what?

What do others see when you're in pain?

What sin have you taken nonchalantly?

Where is your source of comfort?

When we put in dysfunction, we get dysfunctional relationships. But a dysfunctional beginning doesn't have to make a dysfunctional ending. Joseph is proof that when we live the way God calls us to live, He can use any situation for good.
