“I’ll do what God is calling me to when I have [insert needed resource here] and when I feel [insert desired emotion here] . Fill in those blanks however you want, but remember this: the things you think you need may be what stop you from glorifying God. God doesn’t need you to feel ready; He wants you to be willing.

Awaken Year 4 - Change Is Everywhere
Some people like change; many hate it. However, throughout Jesus’ ministry, when He stepped into a city, a house, a crowd, or someone’s life, everything changed: from death to life, blind to seeing, sinful to righteous… Faith in Christ isn’t just about a different eternal destination; it’s about a new way of living.

Stop the Dance! - Troublemakers Series
Vomit. It’s a very graphic word that describes the motion sickness you give God
by dancing back and forth between God and the world (Revelation 3:16). Elijah
challenged Israel to stop the dance between God and Baal, and the same is
true today. Don’t try to live for the world and God – choose one and commit.
