The presence and power of Jesus brings aid to our hardened and frustrated hearts.

Jesus provides His followers with rest and satisfaction to prepare them for the next mission endeavor.

As Christians head to the mission field, we must be aware of the enemy's land mines.

When Jesus calls and sends His followers, He equips them for faithful representation, not catchy innovation.

Familiarity of Jesus does not guarantee faith in Jesus.

Jesus' followers are not defined by their earthly status but by their faith in Him.

Jesus can go to any place to save anyone.

Nobody likes the hard seasons and rough paths of life. Nobody intentionally invites heartache and misery into their life. Yet life has tough seasons and many heartaches. Is it wrong to pray that we don’t experience these? Jesus seems to invite us to pray that way! As we pray this Scripture we need to learn that asking is not demanding and not getting a favorable answer is not failure to pray correctly.

We must forgive others, because unforgiveness is too costly.

Submission to God’s wisdom to include our dependency upon his Provision are hallmarks of seeking first the Kingdom of God.
