Feeling Discouraged || 1 Kings 19 (Elijah)

Elijah seemed to have everything going for him... until the Queen gave a death sentence. He ran away in fear. He wished his life away. He didn't have the will to keep fighting anymore. Perhaps, not this extreme, but in some way or another I feel we can all relate having high highs, soon followed by low lows. In these moments in time do we turn to Fear or Faith?

Power of 4x a Week

We are Humans, sometimes we get into a rut. When we lose the will to do anything that might be important to us, we need to get back up and take on life 1% at a time. Celebrate small victories. 
"If you count the pennies, the dollars will take care of themselves."
If you read the pages, the wisdom mindset will come.
We are overwhelmed in todays society with data and knowledge that is constantly changing, yet God never changes. God knows what we need, what advice to give, etc. We need to open our bibles though to let him in.
In this episode we talk about statistics of the average christian and what drives a transformation, a true change in heart. This is what God desires of us, not to check boxes, and stop there at the pride.

When God Dries up our Brook || 1 Kings 17

Has your brook ever dried up? The brook that brought many "blessings" in your life: family, friends, comfort, encouragement, stability, etc. ...
God will wake us up in many ways. Does he have to dry up your brook to get through to you? And when he dries up your brook, will you choose to walk in faith, or get bitter? Reflect.

Letting Go of Anxieties of this Life

The Bible is a Light for our Feet.
It would be nice to have a light to see where we are going but Faith doesn't work this way. So, let's trust in him with all our heart, mind, and soul. 
He's got this, way better than we ever could by the way.
God Bless.
