My emotions can be so overwhelming. Most of us get so tired of trying to tackle our emotions that we simply let them lead. In my life, this is a recipe for disaster.

So many of my thoughts and so much of my time are caught up in things that are important to the culture around me, but they aren't things that will matter in eternity.

What am I willing to die for? What can I daily die to?

We don’t have to live our best life here, our best life is later. Remembering keeps my grip on hope.

Dear God, sometimes I can't let things go. I want to hold onto Your gifts, like You aren't going to give again. Forgive me ...
