You have been changed, given new life. You’ve tasted what is good and real and true. So live free.

Our plan is not always God’s plan. Even if we walk through darkness and uncertainty, He makes our steps light because He is our strength.

We are messed-up people. Even when we try to do good, our evil hearts are still corrupt. But Jesus knows.

No matter what your circumstances, God has a plan. He knows your purpose, and He will see you through.

When the storms of life rage, remember He is with you. When you struggle until you have no energy left to give, He is with you. When you feel alone and think that God doesn’t care, He is with you. So take heart . . . He is with you!

It starts as broken glass. Ruined. Thrown away. But then something amazing happens. Over time, the useless shards are rolled and tumbled until something beautiful is created. It’s just like how God takes our broken pieces and crafts beauty.

Seconds can drag on and years can fly by. We know we are on this earth for just a moment. And we don’t know when that moment will end. So, God, help us to turn to you, to seek your wisdom. As Psalm 39:7 says, “My hope is in you.”

When the storms of life threaten to overwhelm you and hopelessness is all you know, there is One who can bring peace to troubled lives. Jesus spoke the winds and the waves into submission, and He can calm your storm too. Just ask Him.

God created the universe and everything in it. He holds it all in His powerful hands—stars, oceans, time, us. Yet He bends down and invites us to be family. Family! Take Him up on His offer. This is the first in a series of videos for Gospel Here & Now. Go to gospelhereandnow.org to find out more.

When our bodies fail to provide our heart’s desires there is no one else to turn to for help but God.
