A key indicator of health is how difficult it is to make you happy.

We might need added precautions— not against COVID-19— but another sinister condition. Some are dangerously susceptible to "Soundstupiditus"

Whatever level of stress you have, it’s actually not embedded in a feeling, it’s a belief that you’re living out.

Oddly, the promise of personal peace to came people who had no hope of earning it.

Want more this year. Introduce habits that not only protest excess, but tell your soul that God’s “with“ness is the real joy of the season.

It’s possible that bad things and good things are just steps to best things.

Sometimes, joy will look like dancing and laughing and skipping. Sometimes, joy will look like tears or gritted teeth or nerves.

Following Jesus doesn’t mean you won’t lose your job, you won’t lose your health, you won’t lose your marriage, you won’t struggle. Still...

God’s joy is something placed within reach of every person. Barren or not. Single or not. Divorced or not. Poor or not. Harmed or not.

If asked, “Why don’t you live for fame or power or sex or money or stability?” they would probably say something like, “We just want MORE."

Though you have a God-like desire to see a world at peace, don’t burden yourself with the God-sized expectation that you must do it all.

Create the peace you have—and, if you have the deep peace of a relationship with God, do not stop short of giving it to someone this season.

Yes, we have been led to war. We have been led to division. So somebody has to lead us to peace.

It may’ve never occurred to you that your deepest need for peace is a deep need for a Person.

True peace never ignores any interpersonal problem. It’s achieved by running toward what keeps to people apart.

A peace-keeping world's actually a world of a certain violence. It’s smiles, hugs & handshakes, but it buries what makes us most passionate.

The kind of peace God wants to give you (and your world) isn’t automatic, but it's available. It's a miracle, but God's made it attainable.

God’s love creates two miracles in our lives: 1) Our value will be impenetrably fortified 2) Our purpose will become simple and clear

That’s love. The truth of seeing what’s best and the grace to provide it.

Truth is the determined part of love. It has a vision. It has a restless energy to move toward that vision.
