ArRESTed Development

You faced it. The untimely “thing” that happened, the circumstance, the conversation or the decision that caught you completely off guard, confused you or simply left you feeling powerless. In its aftermath comes a flood of emotion from sadness, or fear, or maybe even rage. And just like that - you are triggered - and your response isn’t exactly Christ-like? Caught up in a crazy cycle you just can’t seem to shake? He’s bigger than it all - even your worst day or any “arrested development”, where you may feel stuck mentally, emotionally or spiritually? What if you saw it all- even in your “fails”, heaven’s core values at work and the amazing redemption God provides? What if you viewed the thing that triggers you as God’s real invitation to experience His REST and His BEST to empower you and DEVELOP you to overcome arrested development! A heart at REST is a heart at peace with yourself, with God, and with others because you tap into God’s thoughts about it. The renewed mind takes captive every thought that doesn’t line up with the core values of heaven. If It isn’t in His mind or on His mind for us or others - we cannot afford to let it be on ours.
