"The more I acknowledge my limitations, the more I understand that resistance is almost always an invitation. Feeling resistant is an invitation to further exploration. It's an opportunity to be curious, a feeling to lean towards with grace-filled questions, and something that can ultimately lead to a deeper trust in and surrender to Jesus."Leave a comment for Tasha: https://incourage.me/?p=254087--This Labor Day, celebrate your faith, inspire your loved ones, and get equipped for your faith journey.

"We can also falsely think that one of the best ways to glorify God is to be hard on ourselves. But telling ourselves we're bad is not a way to make God look good. It is not the way of Love. The voice of Love is an invitation that says, “Remember who you really are. Rest in who you will forever be. Nothing and no one can change your identity."Leave a comment for Holley: https://incourage.me/?p=253936--This Labor Day, celebrate your faith, inspire your loved ones, and get equipped for your faith journey.

"Mercy is choosing pardon over punishment, forgiveness over fury, kindness over contempt. Not because they deserve it, but because they don't. To be clear, mercy is not codependence or covering up a crime. That would be enabling. Mercy, sourced in divine love, always has the other person's best interest in mind. It pays the price of someone else's mistake, absorbing the expense and covering the cost."Leave a comment for Michele: https://incourage.me/?p=253947--Last chance to save 40% on select Bibles and back-to-school gifts from DaySpring!

"Until you know who you really are — not what you do or whom you're related to — you will struggle to know your place in the world.Before there was a husband or kids or a job, even before you drew your first breath, you were a child of the Most High God. And you're still His kid, even now.

Life takes its toll. The more we experience, the more we may start to see ourselves in light of what's happened to us instead of what God thinks about us. In fact, we may fear that our damage is irreparable, and it may keep us from drawing closer to Him.

It will refresh your mind and heart with the truth that God makes all things new, especially us!Order your copy of Embrace Your New, and leave a comment on the featured excerpt shared earlier this week for a chance to WIN a copy: https://incourage.me/?p=253758The (in)courage podcast is brought to you by DaySpring.

"Just because the flowers of our prayers haven't blossomed yet doesn't mean we should give up on them, lose hope, complain, or stop expecting them to come to fruition. Maybe we just need to water them with faith. Let them bask in the sunlight of our worship of a faithful God who loves us. The Lord says you will reap exactly what you've planted. The key is to remember that the God who gave us His Son will also give us everything else.

"May that same love lead us to embrace and see the worth in one another above all other loves and loyalties.

"How will you embrace childlikeness as you pursue God's kingdom today? Maybe it looks like taking time to walk in the park or play with your dog. Perhaps you have a desire to draw, or paint, or sing. Is there a game you haven't played in years? Or a beloved book you haven't read since childhood? The possibilities are endless. Invite Him to join you in whatever you choose, and ask Him for a fresh perspective on His kingdom, and your place in it, as you seek the hidden treasure of His immeasurable love."Leave a comment for Shay: https://incourage.me/?p=252989--The summer issue of DaySpring's Everyday Faith magazine is here!

"We may not get to see the branches that eventually stretch to offer shade, but what would happen if we chose to trust the timeline to the Gardener?What if we dared to push back against the widely seen, the popular, and the pixelated, by choosing the smaller things?Few of us will sit in the shade of trees we ourselves planted, but every single day we walk a path and rest in the shade that was made for us long ago by names we'll likely never know.May we go and do the same.You are wired for glory, friend.
