We say everything happens for a reason and God is in control, so does that mean everything happens for a reason because God is in control? Is God really in control? Is He even in control of you? The last time you sinned? Was that God or was it you?

Do you have more influence on the the environment around you or does it have more influence on you? Are you the same person at work or with your friends as you are at church? Daniel purposed in his heart to be different. Dare to be Daniel!

We don't always have to understand. God just wants us to have Faith and Be Obedient. Just pick up your Hammer and go see the Priest.

Sometimes the only way to move forward is to let go of the past. Failures, mistakes and hurts from the past can steal the treasures that can be found today. What are you anchored to? If it is anything but Christ, burn the ships! (Inspired by the song Burn the Ships by for King and Country.)

From the least of these to the greatest, we all struggle with temptation, but if we keep our spiritual garden weed free we can escape the harvest of sin and death.
