Needy, Desperate, And Loving It
God wants us to come to Him clingy and needy. Yes, it does bring to mind that annoying OCD type who latches onto victims like a burr, but I want to be latched onto Christ obsessively, too.

Looking For Work? Ever Considered This Job?
Did you work a summer job this year? Are you looking for one now? I know this probably isn't what you had in mind, but did you know that GOD is looking for workers? Well . . . worshipers, actually!

You're A Powerhouse
I relate a whole lot to Peter. On his own, he was a fearsome mess. Matthew 26 shows him so knock-knee scared he's cussing and lying through his teeth saying he never even knew this Jesus-dude. And yet just weeks later, 3,000 souls are saved after he preaches one power-packed sermon. What caused this dramatic difference in Peter?

A Rare Beauty
In our world, people are constantly saying how you have to look and dress and act. They are constantly pressuring us to conform to what they say is beautiful. Tell me, who are they to say what is beautiful? Who are they to say what is worth more? God's creation is beautiful, and He doesn't make mistakes.

You're A Wimp!
Here's the bad news. You can't handle it. You can't handle your circumstances. You can't handle your sin. You can't handle the challenges you face today or the challenges that lurk right around the corner.
At least not on your own.

A Fresh Look At Rejection
I'm twenty-five years old and have never had a date. Why I don't know the reason, what is clear to me is that the Lord, for a reason only He knows, has guarded my heart and emotions from any boy. He is building in me something beautiful and is sanctifying me through and through and molding me into the woman I am to be one day to my future husband.
