Being in ministry is like managing a thermostat—someone’s always too hot, someone’s always cold. You can’t please everyone. But grace means seeing the bigger picture: no one’s perfect, not even leaders. So give others—and yourself—room to grow. Jesus did.
I was dying—spiritually, emotionally, physically—but ministry made it look like I was thriving. Don’t confuse working for God with walking with Him. If you need rest, take it. Before you’re forced to. Psalm 23: “He makes me lie down.”
Church, maybe it’s time we repent—not just to God, but to the people we’ve failed.
ot Every Goose Is Mean, and Not Every Person Is Who You’ve Heard They Are
Not every moment is deep—but some are. When God speaks, immediate obedience matters. It could mean life or death, purpose or regret. Practice hearing Him in the small things. Don’t wait. Obey now. It’s not just spiritual—it’s survival.
The closer you get to God, the harder it gets—not because you’re doing something wrong, but because your flesh is fighting back. Don’t quit. Keep walking it out. The struggle means you’re growing. Let God be your strength.
Grace doesn’t ignore sin—it just refuses to let it define someone’s future. Lead with love, not judgment. Restore, don’t expose. Because God’s grace celebrates the comeback, not the fall. #GraceOverGossip #Restoration #LoveLikeJesus
Love without expectation isn’t wasted—it’s real. Manipulation says, “I’ll love you if you change.” God loves even when we don’t choose Him. True love makes space, not demands. Let’s love people like that—just because they’re worth it.
Correction without love misrepresents God’s heart. Confront to restore, not expose. Like Nathan with David—truth must come with compassion. We’re not called to shame, but to guide people back to God. Be a bridge, not a barrier. Represent Him well.
Grace isn’t earned—it’s given. We’re not called to judge, but to restore. Before you expose someone, expose yourself. Mercy triumphs over judgment. Let’s be bridges, not stumbling blocks.
