"Pain will change you but not necessarily for the good. In moments of pain, your soul softens and then you choose where it goes from there." @pastorchadmoore
“If you’ve got this war going on inside of you, that’s a good sign if you’re a follower of Jesus. The Holy Spirit is at work. Which side wins? The one you feed the most. What you think about and what you focus on is what you move towards.” @pastorchadmoore
a prayer for worrying:
Holy Spirit, wash over me. Fill me with joy, peace, and faithfulness. The truth is, I don't have control over most of the pressure that I'm feeling. In this moment, I'm going to surrender to you and trust in your presence. In Jesus' name, Amen.
"For all of us who are followers of Jesus: When we look at groups of people that sin differently than we do, do we actually see them? Or do we just see their sin? Do we see people as human beings, that Jesus gave His life for? Or do we just see their sin?" @pastorchadmoore
"Peace is not something you achieve, it’s something you choose to receive even in the midst of pressure and problems. Peace is about the presence of Jesus. It's relational." @pastorchadmoore

"In the darkness of our world and even in our personal darkness, things that we struggle with, a Light is there for us. We just have to receive it." @pastorchadmoore
"If you are waiting on the world to make you happy, you will be waiting a long, long time. Instead of waiting on happiness to happen to you, you've gotta happen to happiness and bring it to the world." @pastorchadmoore
