The (in)courage Podcast

"Our great and tender God is not trying to force you to maximize your life. His rhythm is one of love and grace at a pace that won’t destroy your soul. He’s not asking you to try harder or do more. He spoke the world into being — what trouble does He ever have with His to-do list?
 
 You are not doing anything wrong if it seems like it is taking a long time to fully step into your calling even though you know what God wants you to do."

"It is a privilege to give our sorrows to the Prince of Grief. So, take your pain to the Lord in prayer.
 
 He hears you . . . paper cuts and all."

Our circumstances are all different but we can all agree that life is hard. Relationships are complex and brokenness comes in a thousand different shapes and shades. Thankfully, God doesn't leave us to figure it out or fumble through alone.
 
 His wisdom, joy, guidance, and strength are available to us right now, right where we are. And we want to experience it TOGETHER!
 
 That's why we're teaming up with our friends at DaySpring's Mary & Martha to bring you a special Summer Study (that starts TODAY!) through our devotional journal, 100 Days of Strength in Any Struggle. Find all the details: https://incourage.me/?p=239731

"If you've seen where God's goodness and grace have carried you through in the past, that same goodness and grace will meet you again. For all of the blessings and miracles that God had done, He knew that the Israelites were prone to forgetfulness. 
 
 We forget, too. 
 
 It's so easy to focus on what is missing, broken, or changed in our lives that we forget God's blessings or minimize them in our minds."

"The only thing that limits the Lord from working in my life is my lack of trusting Him. When we face circumstances that don't make any earthly sense, God doesn't want us to ask how. He wants us to say, “I don’t know how and I don’t have to know how, because my God is faithful and capable.”
 
 I needed to remember that the Lord is for me. If He is for me, then what can possibly be against me (Romans 8:31)? Just because I don’t know how, doesn’t limit the Lord."

"The world needs what you have to offer. We need the one and only you. I want to be so comfortable in my skin that I don’t over-analyze, sanitize, or hide who I am and what’s important to me.
 
 The older I get, the harder it’s become to pretend to be what I’m not, and the more I recognize (and try not to rebel against) who God made me to be.
 
 And God certainly didn’t create us with a one-size-fits-all mold. We’re weird, quirky misfits who love what we love and dislike what we dislike. We’re so unique God has numbered the hairs of our heads (Matthew 10:30). We're as individual as snowflakes in a winter sky, yet we intersect and overlap in delightful ways."

"God’s plans for our lives are invincible when we stay connected to Him. Let’s cling to God’s promises. Hold tight to His heart. Have strong roots that burrow deep into His affection for us. We will not falter. We will not fail. We will not lead a barren life at any age. Psalm 92:14 CSB says, “They will still bear fruit in old age, healthy and green.” Yes, we will be women of beauty, growth, and blessings as long as we live. Because we are trees planted by the river of God’s love, and it will never run dry."

"There is only One whose sacrifice purchased a freedom we can’t lose. Today I honor the lives of men and women who lost their lives in war, not just in the United States but around the world. I will look at the black-and-white photos of my father and grandfather with respect, and I will call my son and daughter-in-law to let them know how much I love them.
 
 Even so, I remain cognizant and tender toward the myriad of ways this world and its wars cut and wound us. Ours is a world in need of healing, a people in need of a freedom we can't secure no matter how loud we scream or how hard we fight. We need more than warriors or weapons or even our own wisdom can achieve for us.
 
 We need a Savior. Hallelujah, we already have Him."

"I don’t have to be strong all the time. It's like what I tell my kids every night when I tuck them in. “You can rest. You can relax. I’m right here,” I tell them.
 
 I believe God tells us the same."

"We can trust that grace is at work to calm what we cannot control. Emmanuel, the God-in-the-boat, knows every storm, every downpour, every barreling wave that threatens to topple us. He has never left our side.
 
 His presence is peace. His trust is deep. His whole life is given for us."
