Repentance is the act of turning from disobedience to God with intentional obedience.

Repentance is not a one-time act but a continual process of turning to God, letting God lead you in your walk

Repentance involves a heartfelt turning away from sin and a commitment to follow Christ, resulting in a life transformed by His grace.

 Repentance brings healing, peace, serenity:

                Between ourselves and God

                With ourselves

                With others around us

Repentance is a step that helps realign us with God’s image and likeness.

Our lives can feel lost or ever stagnant, but God gives us of bright new beginnings.

Each day is an opportunity to experience His abundant mercy and renewed strength.

He invites us to leave our past behind and step confidently into the future He has designed for us.

With God by our side, every end is not only a loss but invokes the promise of something marvelous waiting to be discovered.

THE GREATEST GIFT THAT YOU CAN GIVE HIM THIS CHRISTMAS IS YOURSELF.

We can lose perspective. If we’re not careful, we begin to look at the world as if the whole world is a problem and our whole lives are filled with anxiety, pressure and problems.

We can't expect things to fulfill us if that thing is breaking God's heart.

Our identity is manifested by what we live for!

“Friendship is one of the sweetest joys of life. Many might have failed beneath the bitterness of their trial had they not found a friend.” 

Charles H. Spurgeon.

Think about this:

Grace is God’s love for us in action

Christ is a gift of Grace from God to us!

Grace saves us from a Shallow Religion

"When you choose to forgive, you free the offender, but more importantly, you free yourself."

God’s wants the best for us, and that was his plan from the start

Serenity is not an untouchable idea reserved for the spiritually enlightened. It for all people, not just for the most pious.

Serenity is for people stuck in the mud who need a sure footing to find a way out.

Serenity is not based on pleasant circumstances.

Serenity is a by-product of finding a solid foundation on which to ground our life.

Waiting can result in two things

1.    A change of desire on our part

2.    A greater outcome than we can image

        JESUS HEART SEEKS TO HELP YOU THROUGH IT ALL

 If you’re not sure what to do, allow God to take the lead.

 God’s job is to fight for you. Your job is to trust in him.

 The very arms that defeated death are the arms awaiting you.

We were made to know God and live a life of faith. The Christian life, with God, is the true life that God created for us.

John 1:11 says, “He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him.” And so He wept. This broke His heart, and it still does.
