We drift when we stop paying attention to what we’ve heard about Jesus. What we allow into our lives shapes who we become, and we are always moving either toward Christ or away from Him. The good news is that Jesus suffered and was tempted just as we are, so He understands our struggles and is able to help us through them.

We have a generous Savior who grants us access. He gets us in our weakness and gives us mercy and grace every day. Come boldly before His throne of grace to receive.

We can follow Jesus for years yet settle into familiarity, stop expecting to grow, and mistake what we already know and have experienced for all God has for us. Because Jesus is better, we have more as we keep growing in Him. Receive righteousness, stay teachable, keep practicing, and keep going with hope.

Because Jesus lives forever as our High Priest and intercedes for us, we can confidently join him in the prayer he has already started on our behalf. When shame or weakness tells you to hide, draw near to God through Jesus. Bring Him your sin and struggle, receive His mercy, and keep growing.

People are insecure in their relationship with God and how he will behave. They are worried about where they stand with God. The New Covenant is a better covenant. This new covenant with God guarantees a secure, loving relationship forever! The new covenant gives us confidence in our relationship with God.

We live surrounded by voices telling us what is true, what matters, who we are, and even what God is like. The problem isn’t that God hasn’t spoken. The problem is that we can give other voices more authority than the clearest thing God has said: Jesus

We belong to Jesus, but we can still speak in ways that wound people, divide relationships, and damage the body of Christ. Jesus has given us a new life and a new way to speak. We can put off words that produce death, put on the heart of Jesus, and let His Word become the language of our lives.

What we truly trust is ultimately revealed in how we live. God's Word exposes the places where what we profess and what we truly believe have gotten out of alignment. As He brings us back into alignment with the truth, we trust Jesus more fully -- and that trust produces rest.
