Push Starting a Dead Spiritual Life

Push starting your life and becoming motivated to do the will of God can be done in many different ways. It’s incumbent upon us to find the way that works best for us. Jesus is the source of the power we need to get us through any situation in life. Not only is the power to navigate through this life successfully found in Jesus, but the power to get us out of the funk we find ourselves in from time to time is found in Jesus as well.

Sin, in and of itself will never cause our God to turn His back on us, His children. In our relationships, most of us have lines that we won’t allow others to cross. Those lines are what we call “deal breakers” and in most instances, relationships are changed forever when these lines are crossed.
