We are all wired a little differently, including in the area of how we relate to others. Some of us have a natural bend towards people-pleasing. As a recovering perfectionist, I have had to work through this myself. Perhaps a brief discussion can shed light and spark insights on how to manage this and work towards a healthy balance in this area...

There are passages in the word of God that I have avoided, some for many years, perhaps not wanting to confront myself in them. But I found an unexpected freedom in taking honest inventory with them being used as clarifying mirrors into areas of my heart I could not see for myself...

Some of us may have heard certain passages, like the renewing of our mind leading to transformation. But what does it really mean to actually renew our mind? What is it to be truly transformed?

Continuing the discussion on codependency...how many times have we found ourselves in cycles, repeated situations of hurt, abuse, failed relationships, and not having fully understood why or how? Where are we missing the clarity, and what can we very practically do to see the whole picture and move forward and out from the umbrella of codependency?

When God speaks...truly speaks...

Codependency...there's that word again. What is it at its core? We have to have an honest dialogue about it. It's the only way we are really going to be able to understand it, and ensure we are not ensnared by it in any way.

Ever since the advent of the internet and social media, we have been drawn as individuals and a society into a new world, a new way of living and interacting with others. And we never got a handbook or user manual with sufficient training and orientation. We are learning things the long and often hard way...or are we?

There is an interesting line of discussion between a lawyer and Jesus that led to the famous story of the Good Samaritan. And the key question that queued the parable, which some may remember, was, who is my neighbor? But, did he ask the right question? Where are we in the story?

What does it mean to truly trust the Lord, to really surrender to Him? Practically? It can be so cliche, but how simple is it to actually do and live out?

Have you ever discovered something in your life taking up inordinate space or energy that was an instant revelation of freedom you didn't know you needed?

I heard about your test. Even though you did really good, much better than you thought, you got the most important thing wrong...

At a certain point, there is a place of humbleness required when seeking truth. Perhaps it's because it's not about being right, but wanting to just get it right...

There is power and freedom in humble honesty with ourselves, especially when standing in the safety of God's grace...

We generally seek to avoid the valleys and troubles of life, and when we are in them, we want out fast. What do we do with the many times we can't get out on our own timetable?

Many have gone through traumatic experiences, such as a loved one passing. Grieving is a vital part of processing and working through the intense emotions and life changes. But, doesn't the pain and tears get tiresome after a while?

There are things in life that are supposed to be in place and healthy that just sometimes aren't. What do we do with this?

Many people are somewhat familiar with the story of David and Goliath. But there is another one...

As we journey in life, processing things internally and dealing with things externally...how may we understand the work in our heart? What is it to truly grow and develop well within?

There is a place of surrender in our worst moments where the Master does what He does, and in such a way...
