Root of Faith

"The root of faith is the knowledge of a Person, and one of the biggest snares is that God is sure to lead us to success." ~ Henry Blackaby

Deal with Sin...

"Sometimes it is easier to hide behind self rejection and loathing rather than deal with specific areas of sin that the Lord points out to us. But what is easier often becomes a snare, never allowing us to truly take personal responsibility for our actions. For example, it can be easier to say, "I am a horrible person and utterly hopeless, so why even try?" than to say. "I repent of my selfish anger and with God's grace, choose to work with Him so I no longer live in this anger any longer" ~ Katherine Walden

Lying Destroys

“Lying damages others. Lying subtly permits us to destroy ourselves as we are caught in the snare and shatter our own self-image and credibility. Freedom from deceit and lying improves self and gives all of us peace of mind.” ~ Marvin J. Ashton
