Unfortunately, the Bible won't tell you directly, Thou shalt take the new job in marketing... or Thou shalt go directly from undergraduate school to honor me in graduate school.

Lord, use me today, use me for your glory, make me bold, stir me up, give me eyes to see the needs of those I work with, give me a heart sensitive to those who are hurting, give me a prompting of the Spirit to minister to those who are around me.

Gentleman, God created you with the heart of a warrior. Until there’s something you’re willing to die for, you can’t truly live.

The Bible is the best and most important tool in discerning direction from God.

The things that make us sad, the things that make us righteously angry, or the things we care about that others don’t are often a key that unlocks our reason for living. It’s our burden.

You see, religion alone can only take a person so far. Religion can make us nice, but only Christ can make us new. Religion focuses on outward behavior. Relationship is an inward transformation. Religion focuses on what I do, while relationship centers on what Jesus did. Religion is about me. Relationship is about Jesus
