LYSA TERKEURSTRemember: even the smallest drop of God’s strength is more than enough to cover our frailties, our shortcomings, and the places where we deem ourselves weak.
LYSA TERKEURSTOutside our comfort zone, though, is where we experience the true awesomeness of God.
LYSA TERKEURSTTrusting God’s plan is the only secret I know in the gentle art of not freaking out.
LYSA TERKEURSTI know deep hurt. But I also know deep hope. Sometimes God’s power is shown as much in preventing things as it is in making them happen. We may never know why. But we can always know and trust the Who.
LYSA TERKEURSTNot reaching back for what was lost in my yesterdays. And not reaching for what I hope will be in my tomorrow. But living fully with what is right in front of me. And truly seeing the gift of this moment.
LYSA TERKEURSTWhen feelings of inadequacy come creeping in, let’s park our minds in God’s truth.
LYSA TERKEURSTToday, let’s set our minds and hearts on feeling more thankful for what we are than guilty for what we’re not. Let’s cut the threads of guilt with grace.
LYSA TERKEURSTRemember, conflict doesn’t always mean we have to fight against something and tear it apart. Conflict can also mean we’re fighting for something to make it even better and stronger than it’s ever been.
LYSA TERKEURSTJust because something is hard doesn’t mean it’s impossible.
LYSA TERKEURSTAt the end of the day, honoring God leads to good things. Anything else leads to confusion, emotional exhaustion and a lack of good things.
LYSA TERKEURSTNo matter your age, stage of life, or circumstances, don’t forget to dare to dream with God. You don’t have to figure anything out. Just keep saying yes to Him, in big ways and small, and watch what He does.
LYSA TERKEURSTSpending some time getting quiet can really be the best remedy for tangled situations. Taking a step back from all the emotion, frustration, and exhaustion to sit quietly with Jesus will do more to untangle a mess than anything else I’ve ever found.
LYSA TERKEURSTThis life is not about me. It’s about joining hands with Jesus to fulfill whatever tasks He sets before me and to share His love with all He brings my way.
LYSA TERKEURSTLove isn’t what I have the opportunity to get from this world. Love is what I have the opportunity to give.
LYSA TERKEURSTYou’ve never gone too far that God can’t redeem you, restore you, forgive you, and give you a second chance.
LYSA TERKEURSTSatan has no power over us except what we allow. Moment by moment, decision by decision, step by step – will we operate in God’s all powerful Truth or allow Satan to entangle us in his lies?
