In walking humble, we get to walk closely to the One who forgives, who cleanses, who heals, who restores. We get to walk closely to the ultimate Victor over all of the powers of darkness within us and around us.

The beauty of His ways… when He is so real and so big to me that I need no other thing, person, job, money, fame, to satisfy me… well, then I am free. Free to love people. Free to chase dreams. Free to stand for justice. And free to be a champion of grace.

When you speak harshly of others, unfairly criticize, use slurs or degrading words, or spread gossip, you’re merely giving evidence that the well (your heart) is full of tainted water.
