“While I knew that true beauty came from the inside, I had missed the fact that God doesn’t make mistakes. He makes us who we are – forming us in our mother’s wombs (Ps. 139:13), and what we see as our imperfections He sees as His beautiful creation.”

“When I first unplugged at the end of July, I was such a wreck it felt like my nerves were on fire. I was constantly on edge; couldn’t focus. I had no desire to do anything. Everyone was worried about me. I was worried about me. While I didn’t know what to pray, and couldn’t have focused long enough to do so if I wanted to, I said lots of short prayers: “God, help me get through this.” And He did. It didn’t happen all at once, but the slow process of healing began. Breath by breath.”

“Satan loves using my failures to make me question my worth as a mom, but Jesus says my failures should be arrows pointing me back to Him. My insecurities are a sign of a spiritual struggle, not a lack of worth. My worth is secure. My value is assigned by my Creator, not my mom skills.”

“All those years ago, I fell for Satan’s lies hook, line, and sinker. And my faith suffered. I spent several years afterwards seeking worldly connection. I wanted emotional support and Satan used that to slowly and subtly draw me away from Jesus. I knew Jesus was with me, but it wasn’t enough because Satan tricked me into believing Jesus wasn’t real enough. But Jesus is real.”

“I don’t know where life finds you today, but I hope you remember God is always good. That’s what I always come back to. When I look around and everything seems to be falling apart, I cling to the promise that God is unshakeable.”

“I have a candid confession for you today... I planned to launch our new devotional series on Monday, and well... it's Tuesday and it's still not ready. After the holiday chaos and a stomach bug working its way through my family, I just didn't have time. I've been tempted to beat myself up about it... to label myself a failure. But God keeps reminding me that I am not defined by my accomplishments. As Paul wrote, "There is [...] no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus." (Romans 8:1) I am not a failure, but a child of The One True King. So, if you are struggling to get things done, falling behind and missing deadlines, I want to encourage you that you aren't a failure either. You are the Beloved of Jesus. In a way, I guess this is a great start for our devotional series after all.”

“Jesus came to Earth to live a perfect life and die a sinners’ death because He knew we would stumble. He knew we could never be perfect. Because of Him we are forgiven. We don’t have to live ashamed. Even when I forget I can do all things through Christ, He is with me. That’s just part of the beauty of the gospel.”

“When life knocks us down, God CAN put us back together again. He can meet us in our brokenness and restore us to something even more glorious than we were before we were shattered.”
― Heather Hart, Teen Devotionals...for Girls! Volume 2

“Every night I cried out to Jesus for someone to talk to. I wanted Jesus to be enough, but I also wanted someone who was flesh and blood who could hug me and tell me everything was going to be okay. I wanted a Christian friend who could understand what I was going through. If you have ever been there, can I tell you something? We are not alone, but Satan would love for us to believe we are.”

“I have found that when we read too fast, we lose our awe. We stop being amazed. And it spills over to our everyday lives. When we run around frantically trying to keep up, we miss seeing God move.”
