“The truth is, the immutable nature of God is an anchor. It means that at no point in history or at no point in the time to come will God not be good. Or not able to move. He has and will always be a faithful and just and gracious and powerful God. Just because we change our minds every other minute doesn’t mean God does. He is the same God today as He was then.”

“David resisted fear by being secure in God’s presence and protection. You don’t have to fear evil when the always good God walks with you. He says for “you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.” Which brings to mind David, the shepherd boy who killed a giant with the same items he used to protect his sheep. The resources the good God used to protect you are the same resources He will use to fight for you.”

“This is to say, blessed is the woman who refuses the voice of friends who love the earth more than the kingdom above it. Those friends who are a choir of darkness. Who steal Satan’s sentences and call it “advice.”

“The point is this: there is nothing in your hands that God won’t replace with more of Himself. So let it go. Let it fly. Let it burn. God is better anyway. It might hurt. It might suck. You might miss it. You might have to sacrifice some things. Confess some stuff. But on the other side of surrender is God.”
