Long before we are ashamed of ourselves, we should be amused at ourselves—at our self-importance and self-conceit. - Herbert McCabe

Jesus never promised to eliminate all of the chaos from our lives; He said He'd bring meaning to it.

Midday Prayer: Lord, deliver me from being a frenetic disciple who gets a lot of things done, but misses the very things You are doing. Open my eyes to see You disguised in this "shelter in place" season that slows down everything around me. Amen. #slowdisciple

Comfort and Mercy are pulling into port!

Vincent de Paul said, “The one who hurries delays the things of God.” Hurrying is violence to our souls and to those around us. Ask yourself: What am I doing that God might not be asking me to do?

If anyone told you that you have to get dressed up to go to Jesus, they lied. Take one minute to watch this video to brighten your day: https://t.co/4dmRKS6SbR

“When you send people out to do your thing rather than Gods thing, that’s not mobilization, it is objectification!” - @kerilad #Exponential

"Outside the will of God, there's nothing I want. Inside the will of God there's nothing I fear." AW Tozer #tozer

Huge here! Work for God that is not nourished by a deep interior life with God will eventually become contaminated by things like ego, power and approval which then guides us to buy into the wrong ideas of success. Thanks @petescazzero

Remember: the things people applaud in your life are the very things that will wreck your soul. Do more, bigger, better, faster is found in the devil's ministry (See desert temptations), not Jesus'. #ehdiscipleship

“May our private lives be more impressive than our public platforms.” @bloritts @LifeAction @ReviveOurHearts #seekweek2019

Do you want God to give you a big platform? He might make your wishes come true. He might give you a big platform to sanctify you. Or he might give you a big platform to destroy you. Remember, God gave Pharaoh and Judas big platforms. Don’t pursue a platform, pursue Christ.

One warning sign of an unhealthy spirituality is to be chronically overextended - having too much to do in too little time, saying yes to new opportunities before prayerfully discerning God’s will, and doing for Jesus without an anchored life of being with Him (@petescazzero)

We find today a fierce, almost violent planning & programming, a sense that w/out ceaseless activity nothing will be accomplished. How seldom it occurs to us God has to undo, & do all over again, so much of what we in our willfulness have pushed thru in his name.#DouglasSteere

"As long as Christ sits on the throne, every day is a good day and all days are days of salvation." AW Tozer #tozer

"I am not in the business of promoting myself; I am in the business of surrendering to the Holy Spirit." AW Tozer #tozer

"What would happen this Sunday morning if the Holy Spirit manifested Jesus Christ in such a way that people truly experienced His presence?" AW Tozer #tozer

We stop on Sabbath because God is on the throne, assuring us the world will not fall apart. He manages quite well w/out us having to run things. Eve when we sleep, he still works. And when we die (the ultimate Sabbath), God's world will continue quite nicely without us. #sabbath

The state you are in, the state you are, is the state you give to others. Today, as we conclude a 2 day, high-level training to multiply master disciple-makers in the #EHDiscipleship Course, I realize this is the foundation of everything we are talking about. Be still today.
