If God continues to give me health and a sane mind and verbal ability, I want to teach.

Everybody wants confidence but you don't find it in self help books. You find confidence in the Holy Spirit.

Ford, you seem to think it's your job to save everyone. When did God step off the throne and put you in charge? Last time I looked, you were not the Savior of the world.

But what if God wasn't behind us, but in front of us, in front of our dreams...making a way for them not because we deserve it...but because He just delights in us?

The amazing, whole, overwhelming, abundant life is found, oddly, by letting go. By living a dangerous faith--the kind of faith that believes in a God who knows our hearts and loves us enough to take our breath away.

It's never a bad thing to have only God to turn to.

God is in the storm. That though the winds blow and my life feels torn apart, if I can just trust Him, I'll discover Him at the center.

Yep. Be. Believe. Hold on. Stand. Our best hope in the middle of confusion and chaos is not to try and solve our problems ourselves but to simply remember whose we are and who we hope in. You stay rooted in the middle of a storm—darkness, confusion, chaos—by putting your focus on the One who is stronger than the storm.

God hasn't forgotten you. There's a plan. you just don't know it yet. But when you're ready to get back into the game, He'll tell you.

I know that God loves you. And that He's not interested in obeying your plans. He's interested in giving you the best. And all you need to do is believe that. When you know God loves you, then faith is simply the expectation that God will show up, that love in hand.

The Lord of my life, who calls me to be brave and walk into the unknown, amazing future. I am always awed by the wonder of you.
