You’re Not That Easy to Love
You are not as patient as you think. Your tolerance for what you deem acceptable is not vast or deep. You give yourself a good grade on your ability to be patient with others, but only because you are looking at yourself through your eyes. You are not experiencing “you” the way others experience you. You are patient so long as you get what you want. You are demanding of others and God. You’re patient with people as a means to an end. Your version of patience is just manipulation. Your impatience when those in your life hold you accountable you lash out and gaslight them. You are not patient because you don’t understand the patience and long suffering that God has with you (2 Peter 3:9)
God is Disappointed in Me
“When she expressed her thoughts on how God feels about her, you could see some momentary relief, but the burden of her beliefs quickly returned because her experiences taught her God was only happy with her when she behaved right. For my client, there was no solution other than to try harder and be better, but it is this very belief that was crushing her.”
Husbands and Wives
Establishing who is God in your individual and marital life can make a big difference in healing for a fractured marriage. God calls us to worship him with our whole being (Deut 6:4-6), how does that impact the way we deal with marital dysfunction and healing. Can healing happen when we worship God first in our lives? These are questions that are important for every christian individual, especially christian marriages to seek and ask.
A Parents Happiness Should Not come First
Divorce cause long-term damage to children emotionally, psychologically, physically, and spiritually. As parents need to value our children over our happiness and desires.
Trust Yourself and follow your heart
I Need to Forgive Myself and Love Myself More
Self-Forgivness and Self-Love sound biblical, but are they? As Christians we are not immune from relational hurt, but where should we turn for healing? Do we accept the cultural refrains of “I need to forgive myself” and “I need to love myself more”? We need to examine the power and authority in the forgiveness that Christ has to offer as our theological anthem.
Maybe Bitterness and Resentfulness are why you have depression and anxiety…….
Teens and Suicide
Teens need their moms and dads practically leading them through their identity formation as well as pointing them to Jesus in times of confusion and angst.
Active Forgiveness
“Forgiveness is weakness. This unfortunately is the more dominant understanding of how our culture looks at forgiveness. This is not a virtue that is seen as an admirable or imitable quality. Many people subscribe to the idea that if someone hurts you, you get revenge on them.“
Your Morality Won’t Save You.
Morality and being good is not the thing that gets you closer to God or into heaven. If God is not interested in me being good, then what does he want from me?
He is Risen!
Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ has risen and today we remember his defeating of evil so we may have hope eternal.
Christ Renews Your Marriage
Make No Room for Bitterness in Your Marriage
Bitterness is a relational cancer in your marriage. Our response to bitterness starts with where our relationship with Christ is. Only Christ can eradicate our bitterness.
