- Instead of being authentic, we often choose to veil reality.
- A veiled heart will keep us from seeing and receiving God's truth.
- Veils that keep us from seeing the truth: religious tradition, we can't get over our past, unforgiveness, wrong relationships, sin.
- Sin veils us to the love of Jesus and to the reality of our condition in sin, until we have sown seeds that bring destruction.
- Trying to control our image and veil our sin is a never ending journey that leads to regret.
- We see what we want about our life when we view through the lens of self rather than the lens of Christ.
- The Bible is not a lucky rabbit's foot. It points to Jesus Christ who is the truth that sets us free.
- We're not just called to know the truth but to live the truth so that others will see the truth.
- Jesus didn't come and die so we could follow what feels right but so that we would follow Him.
- Instead of filtering our lives to cover sin, we can be filtered by God's love and freed from sin.
