Which of these is YOUR primal question do you think? 1.“Am I safe?” 2.“Am I secure?” 3.“Am I loved?” 4.“Am I wanted?” 5.“Am I successful?” 6.“Am I good enough?” 7.“Do I have a purpose?” Reply and let me know…

Success = allegiance to Jesus + faithfully running YOUR race while releasing the outcomes #success #failure

Try God… Not half-hearted, or with religious vigor, but with a surrendered openness to his love, & His invitations. #seekgod #drawneartogod #lifelovehappiness #meaning #fulfillment #hope

CS Lewis philosophized, “If we find ourselves with a desire nothing in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that we were made for another world.” #seekgod #drawneartogod #lifelovehappiness #meaning #fulfillment #hope

Pain, confusion, & error come from seeking life, fulfillment, & peace from anything outside of God. Augustine, more famously said in his Confessions, “our hearts are restless until they rest in you.”#seekgod #drawneartogod #lifelovehappiness #meaning #fulfillment #hope

Your heart matters because you matter, and taking an interest in it is your first step toward a more abundant life.

Imagine allowing your feelings to pass through you & becoming curious about them. Ask yourself, “What was that feeling? What does it mean for me? What do I need, & how can I meet that need in a healthy way?”

While feeling avoidance strategies may reduce the intensity of my feelings, they also lead to anxiety from activity-based avoidance and depression from apathy-based avoidance.

Essentially, there are two methods to ignore your heart and feelings: activity and apathy. When I avoid my heart with activity, I try to conquer and control life rather than live it. When I avoid my heart with apathy, I choose to withdraw from life altogether.
