In a world where the shadows of depression can cast a long and lonely shadow, many find themselves grappling with the shattered pieces of their mental health. The weight of sadness and despair can feel insurmountable, leaving individuals feeling lost in a sea of bleakness.

Do you ever stop and wonder why God chose to save you? Is it just so you could get saved and go about your life, or is there a greater purpose behind it all? Today, I’m excited to tell you the beautiful truth that we were made for more than just surviving - we were made to bring forth praise to Jesus.

In a world where we often struggle with the weight of sin and the feeling of guilt, there is a light that offers hope and renewal. This light is found in surrendering our lives to Jesus Christ.

Are you a compelling storyteller with the ability to draw people in with your personal experiences? Do you have a knack for building relationships and connecting with others? If so, you may resonate with Matthew 9, where Matthew, a Christ follower, invited all his friends - tax collectors and sinners - to a dinner party with Jesus. He used his social connections to create a space for people to encounter Jesus.

In our journey of faith, we are often reminded of the importance of sharing our stories and being present in the lives of others. As believers, we are called to be vessels of God's love, grace, and truth in the world around us. The power of our own personal testimonies can deeply impact those who are seeking hope, purpose, and transformation. But how do we effectively share our stories and be present in the lives of others in a way that reflects the humility and love of Jesus Christ?

In a world where we each have a unique role to play, it's important to consider how we can contribute to the greater mission that God has for us. Often, we may feel insignificant or unsure of how we can make an impact, but the truth is that God calls us to work together, each doing our part.

In life, we often find ourselves in the challenging seasons of the valley, facing financial struggles, broken relationships, and personal battles. It's during these times that we may feel alone, abandoned, and lost. However, the truth is that we are not alone.

In life, we often encounter situations that seem improbable at best, and impossible at worst. We face challenges, setbacks, and obstacles that can feel insurmountable.

As believers, we are often faced with the challenge of waiting for God's promises to be fulfilled in our lives. This waiting period can be incredibly testing, and at times, it may feel like we are stagnating or even moving backward.
