Great Quotes
“Fear is never from the Lord. It’s something that the enemy uses as a distraction to cause us to get off the course that the Lord is calling us to.”
“It was this verse that helped me come out of that… it was in the Lord’s strength that I was able to take each moment every day and move forward and not give in to the chaos swirling around in my mind.”
“The Lord might not call you to this big, huge ministry, but I think sometimes we can get caught up in what the world calls a ministry and overlook that ministry is in a phone call with a friend or in a conversation with your child.”
“Every time I’ve leaned in and just trust him, like, ‘okay, Lord, you’re gonna have to use me and you’re gonna have to speak through me and you’re gonna have to give me the words because I have no idea what to say.’ He has never, ever, ever failed in that moment.”
