Soul Tips from PB

We need to learn how to respond well to those so-called "thorns" in our lives. Instead of being mad, sad, or feeling bad about ourselves, we need to be glad. Let's respond positively rather than negatively.

Sometimes things happen in our spiritual walk with Christ that stops us on our tracks and we are unable to move forward in our relationship with Christ. We need to understand these walls and how to deal with them.

Not all our responses to sin are helpful. Some can be destructive. For example, anger and temper tantrums can be destructive rather than helpful. We need to respond in love even though we are the ones offended.

We must pay attention to what the Lord is saying to us through His word. We cannot rush this process. We must intentionally incline our hearts to the Lord so that He can speak truth into our lives according to what is really going on in our lives.

A place of grace is also a place of safety. That's where we feel safe enough to share our deepest thoughts and feelings. We want to feel validated in that place. We want to be known and loved and accepted by others.

Salvation is all about experiencing the God kind of life or what is commonly called eternal life in the Bible. This kind of life can be experienced here and now by grace through faith in Jesus Christ.
