I am Guilty.
We are Barabbas and are just as guilty and undeserving of grace as he was. Yet, he was set free and Jesus was killed in his, and our, place. @woodlakechurch

The same God who made the oceans decided the world also needed us. We. Have. A. Purpose. We should all ask Him what His plan is for us. @Jamie_Austin @woodlakechurch #wcCravings
God will use right relationships to keep us safe. The emphasis is on RIGHT relationships. We should make a point of surrounding ourselves with those who will help to build us up in our spiritual walk. @Jamie_Austin @woodlakechurch #wcCravings
Why did my pastor just tell us all from the pulpit that we aren’t that special?!? @Jamie_Austin 💁🏼♀️😂

When we begin to convince ourselves that we are fine to the exclusion of real Godly relationships, we need to take a step back and realize that’s not true. @Jamie_Austin @woodlakechurch #wcCravings
